The Journey
I wrote this in 2016, https://karinsabrinablog.wordpress.com/2016/12/27/2016/ Another year almost pass by, I’m still here. It’s another perfect-with-its-imperfections year. Another shattered heart, lots of disappointments, accompanied with endless gratitude and lots of the teary laughter.
