Your Year Wrapped

As the sun sets on your year, take a few moments to think about the experiences, people, art, hardships and achievements you have encountered. These questions have been collected from different sources and some have been added by me. Take a few days prior and after new year to think about them, and write unfiltered. Re-read your journals, look at your calendar, social media and photo gallery to remind yourself of the things that happened and visualize them as you write the answers. Write as much or as little. Keep coming back here when you remember something new. Then, forget about this. And re-read these when you come back to write it for the next year. There is something magical about feeling the feeling of time passing through and realizing your growth. I hope this helps!
