    For me, the decade started out with disastrous mental health, being suicidal. But God used that for good and it's part of my testimony.

    Other things that happened during this decade....
    my stepdad died, my stepgrandmother and step uncle died--all within a year
    both of my dogs died
    we got a new kitten (who is now 6 1/2 years old)
    I finished grades 10 and 11 of highschool by studying on my own....for grade 12 I just went to GED classes and then took my GED
    I was stuck in a rut for the longest time
    I was diagnosed with social anxiety disorder and OCD
    I challenged my social anxiety and am much more comfortable around other people now
    finally, this year I got a job that I have held onto for 8 months

    If a song sums up my decade, it's Beautiful Scars by Disciple


    How about you?

    I think he means 2010-2019, so that would be your ages 64-73, or thereabouts.

    Lost my Brother.
    Lost my Mother.
    Lost my Father in law.
    Lived through seven decades.
    Four beautiful, & perfect Grandchildren entered this world.
    The Lord is still with me, Hallelujah!
