Tomorrow is 2026.
There were some dark moments this year when I had doubts if I would make it here.
But here we are 🍾
What a year it has been. Looking back on the past twelve months, it feels as if I have lived someone else's life - or as if it all happened a long time ago. It is surreal. It has been surreal. Yet, was painfully real.
Many would empathise and understand if I said that this year has been hard, dark, scary. It was. But more than that, it was a Blessing. I was Blessed. I am Blessed. And oh so grateful.
There were some very bitter, dark nuggets of disappointments. But I pray that, by some divine grace, I may move forward with compassion and love -- that I may walk into the new year, lighter and healthier and happier.
Above all, as I review my year, it is with so much Awe for those who shared part of my journey and sprinkled my path with love and hope and sparkles. I think there are times when humans take on the wings of angels - even when they don't realise their own magic in those needful moments. To each and everyone of them, whether you crossed my path or that of another, I say, "Thank you so very much".
2025 has been a year of challenges and healings, meditations and understandings, acceptance and hope, progress and letting-gos. A year full of lessons, and undeniably, love and abundance.
If I could clothe 2025 in a single word, it would be Gratitude. For gifts, expected and unexpected, arriving in so many ways, on so many levels, from so many sources.
Wishing myself, you, everyone - brave hearts, open minds, Light & Love, acceptance with compassion, ... as we all walk, run, hobble, or fly into the new year.
