1/1 This year was one of the most challenging years for me. Compared to the COVID year, this was way more challenging because of the challenges my family & I encountered. I cried, prayed, got hopeless, and was depressed to the point that I sometimes thought of ending everything. A roller coaster of emotion, as you might say. But there's one thing I learned and was able to prove: Challenging times will reveal genuine friends who are willing to help you.
