I can’t believe it! It’s been an entire year since I started my blog… What an amazing journey it’s been with so much more to come. I’ve been inspired by a plethora of unique and creative bloggers that have taught me many important lessons.

I can’t thank you all enough for all the support this past year and how it just keeps growing with every day that goes by. I’m so blessed and I only pray Triumphant continues to grow, not just for me but for everyone who needs a place to share their stories.

I’ve met (virtually) some amazing human beings and the ones who have shared a piece of themselves on my blog are an inspiration to me and all those who come across their words. I want to show some love to some of my favorite stories that I had the privilege of sharing:

“Through perseverance and preservation of my confidence and dignity I know I will be where I want to be one day.”

@stephottoyoga

“I’m unashamed to be me.”

@natashapuetz

“Life was hard at times but as long as you surround yourself with genuine people who want to see you win, and a ton if tenacity, there’s nothing that you can’t do.”

@the_wanderlover

“However, the biggest trait I gained was resilience.”

@geaux_teezy

“I am a fighter and I will keep fighting.”

@elizabethalcalde

“…never let anyone belittle you and do what makes you happy.”

@corwwin

“Traveling around the world because of a one dollar bill, it’s funny to think about but it’s a true story of how one dream started and how it came together.”

@herlandthomas

“I want to make the world a better place and I am starting with myself.”

@thedetourdiary

These are just some of my favorite quotes from the stories these brave fighters have written for me. I can’t thank them or the others who have shared their stories enough for being a part of Triumphant and being exactly what it represents. Every single one of you are Triumphant in more ways than you can ever imagine.

Without you, Triumphant wouldn’t have the authenticity it would need to touch the hearts of those who want to be inspired. So thank you…

Wow, an entire year of writing and reading inspiration left and right. And that is truly my goal. I want to keep building and explore more opportunities to see how far Triumphant can go. I want to read and share more stories that will, not only motivate me, but someone out there who’s desperate for that spark or that reminder.

Cheers to the first year, to a great year, and cheers to the future God has planned for us.
