If 2018 has challenged you in more ways than one, you’re not alone. But all the hardship will be worth it as your commitment to the things and people you care about (and most of all, to yourself) will come to fruition in 2019. It’s a beautiful year ahead, and even though it will still involve hard work, you’re going to start to see your deepest wishes manifesting this year. It’s all going to be worth it!
