It's a new year! Wow. Thaaaaaank God. Let me start off by saying that I am grateful for 2015 and the experiences it has brought to me. YOU and God have made it an unforgettable, fantastic, check-it-off-your-bucket-list year, and my soul is truly grateful for it all/you all. From traveling all over the world, to visiting my dream destination (my Paris), to going triple platinum, to meeting some of my favorite artists, to making new friends in you, to doing what I love with the girls, to seeing us grow - thank you from the bottom of my heart. However, just like everyone I'm sure, I definitely want to leave some of 2015 in 2015. I mean lock it up in a vault, and never revisit again...

These past 365 days, I've hands down had more growth than I ever have in my life. I've learned the true definition of pain, heartache, friendship, forgiveness, grace, faith and love, and I'll carry some of the experiences with me for the rest of my life. I am a different Ally than I was a year ago. Stronger, braver, sharper, smarter, kinder and valiant is what Ally is today. And I stand tall with my head held high.

To every one of you out there who are feeling unworthy, unsure of yourself, and uncertain of your path - take a moment to look at yourself in the mirror and tell that person that you are meant to be here and that you have a great purpose in this life. DO NOT EVER GIVE UP ON THE PERSON IN THE REFLECTION, because if you can't believe in YOU, no one will. YOU ARE "WORTH IT"! There is always hope and situations can and will change. But it starts with you believing. I promise: keep pushing yourself to a better place and things will change. Life is not easy, but it is our drive and approach to all situations that will deliver us to a better place.

2016 is a year for new adventures, new beginnings, and new experiences. And I just can't wait. You can quote me on this.... "the best is yet to come".

I wish every one of you the biggest blessings, sweetest love, and eternal happiness. Thank you Jesus!

Here's to 2016! Happy New Year!

Ally
