It’s 12:47 am over here, and I am filled with so much gratitude.
Ever since we closed work for the year, I’ve had more time to reflect on my life, and all I can say is that it has been one crazy ride!
Phewww, 2025 was a lot, it was a whole lot! Surviving 2025 is a major confidence booster because I made it out alive. I did!! I freaking did!!
2025 started wonderfully well, but midway through, things went bad, and somewhere along the line, I hit rock bottom. Not something I ever want to experience again. Nobody prepared me for all the challenges that came with the year, heck, nobody even knew I was going through the worst phase of my life whilst smiling and celebrating with others.
Despite all the trials and tribulations I faced, I have so much more to be grateful for. For starters, I was and still am healthy. Other than the mild flu I occasionally get, I fell ill only three times this year, and I still can’t believe that out of 12 months, in a year I was only hit three times. This alone is something to be grateful for.
This year I became stronger. Hitting rock bottom made me conquer most of my fears; I mean I saw it all, I experienced it first hand and I came out unscathed, that’s no easy feat! That’s courage at its peak!
Among many things, I learnt to give myself grace. Being hard on myself was my MO, and belittling my little wins was also a bad habit that stuck for years. I’m learning to replace bad self-criticism with grace and love and surprisingly, it’s been going well.
Looking at my journey, I realized I don’t give myself enough credit for all the things I have achieved in life and how far I have come.
The year did not start and end the way I envisaged, but yeah, detours aren’t bad after all because I learnt so much from the process.
Yeah! It was one hell of a ride but I’m here now, bigger and better🥰
What’s life without a few bumps on the way?😃
To you reading this post, how has 2025 been for you? Good? Bad? A mixture of both? I’d love to read your thoughts in the comments!

My dear, surviving illnesses is a major win, honestly. One time, I fell ill and for the first time in my life, I felt like I was going to die in my mom’s arms. I had violent seizure for the first time due to lack of food in my system (which I took medications upon). 2025 has been a crazy year but gratitude to God always comes first. Congratulations to us all that have made it so far 🥂💖✨
