Leaving 2013 wiser: What good things have you learned in the last year?

2013 taught me that sometimes a trip to the beach with friends, and getting a B, is sometimes more important than an A.

In fact, 2013 gave me an opportunity to re-examine quite a few things I was sure was important, and then realized that maybe taking a deep breath and hugging someone mattered more.

2013 began teaching me that I dont have to ask anyone for space, respect, air, or even power. That those things are mine, and I need to stop giving them away. I began learning just how much I accept the misogyny I was raised in, and have begun learning things can be different.
