How different this year feels compared to last. The contrast between the second semester of 2024 and the first of 2025 is night and day, and I couldn’t welcome it more. After all the pain and heartbreak that marked last year, the change is a breath of fresh air.

January already had hints of it, but the change is now in full bloom.

And it’s also proof of the growth journey I’ve been on since March last year, opening up has brought me so, so much. It was hard with the aforementioned heartbreak, but it was worth it all and I can finally seem to start seeing the results in every aspect of my life.

This adventure is not over, and I am so grateful of where it’s heading. Healing hurts, but it also sublimates. And the clouds that were hanging over my head for so long… they seem to be parting, at last.

Enough survival. Time to live.
