Another year has come and here I am again thinking about everything that happened, everything that didn’t, and everything I wish I could change. This past year wasn’t easy. I struggled with focus, felt miserable more times than I’d like to admit.
I’ve had moments where I just wanted to escape everything, where I felt stuck, drowning in distractions, and wasting time. There were good moments too, things I started, stories that inspired me, and projects I poured myself into. But somehow, the bad days always felt heavier.
The thing is, I don’t want to carry all of that into the new year. I don’t want to spend another year feeling
like I’m just going through the same thing again, letting time slip away. I know I can’t magically become a whole new person just because the calendar changed, but I can at least try to do something else.
This year, I want to keep moving forward, even if it’s slow.
I want to learn to balance things like school, creativity, rest-without feeling like I’m being dragged down by expectations, whether they come from others or from myself. I want to stop letting regret take up space in my mind because, honestly, I’m tired of looking back and wishing I did things differently.
I don’t expect this year to be perfect. I don’t expect myself to suddenly have everything figured out. But if there’s one thing I want for myself in 2025, it’s to at least try to take more steps, to make things that matter to me, to go outside even when it feels pointless, and to remind myself that I’m still here, still moving, still growing. New year, new me? Maybe not. But a better me? I think I can make that happen.
