2025 is almost over and it is almost hard for me to believe because this year has been a really good one for me, one that make me want to look back and be grateful. It was not all roses and rainbow but everything that happened was like it was meant to happen. I learned, grew and things eventually worked out even on days where I got tired and was stuck.
It's Christmas today, the streets is busier, people are wearing brighter clothes, and some are smiling more. It is one of those days when we just sit and think back on everything that went on during the year.
The year 2025 has really been good for me and has been one of my best years so far. I had few days when I got tired and wanted the year to just come to an end already, but looking back now, I am happy that things turned out the way they did.
Which is why, given one wish for Christmas, I think I would wish for only a better 2026. The reason I am wishing for this is not because my 2025 was terrible or anything like that. However, I would love for a year filled with calmness, advancements, relaxation and peace of mind. One with multiple days that will make me truly happy.
I do not want anything too grand or complicated, just a kind year. A year where I can wake up in the morning and be happy with what I have and also see all my efforts come to fruition, is what I hope for. I also want everything that has to do with me to keep on improving, while I continue to be strong enough to deal with whatever life throws at me.
I enjoyed looking forward to the presents, decorations and all the excitement that comes with this season when I was much younger. But I no longer look forward to Christmas that same way. I would rather want a moment of quiet by myself in my house, maybe take out time to watch a movie or read a book, enjoy some good food while still knowing that even though not everything will be perfect, all will still be well with me.
When the being from the prompt appears, I intend to express my wish for 2026 to be a year free from anything draining, but peaceful, fulfilling and unique experience filled with delightful surprises. A year that would make me smile more than I frown.
In the past, I might have wanted something tangible such as a new phone, additional income, or an opportunity to improve my life in a big way. Now, my focus is one finding peace of mind, as I know that if I can maintain a calm heart then all other things will fall into place much easier for me.
I just want to rest, eat well, watch something and be surrounded by people I care about this Christmas. And I wish to carry this kind of peace into the new year. No stress, overthinking nor rushing. Just growth and joys that make each of my days better than the last. So yes, my one wish this Christmas is simple: a better 2026. It should be a year that comes with more laughter, more calm and more good days to look back on next December.
Merry Christmas everyone... 😊
