I have been expecting the hive learners community to bring up an end of the year topic since the beginning of December. For me 2025 was a lot of things but fun, this is because it left me with so many lessons that I will always remember it for. At a point in the middle of the year, if someone had told me that I would make it this far to the end of the year I would not have taken them serious because I did not take anything serious but here I am at this point of my life trying to start believing and dreaming again and finding the purpose out of life that was lost in the middle of the year. If there is anything I am grateful. I am more humbled at the fact that I came face to face with death and lived, so grateful for the fact that I found course and strength to keep pushing, and most grateful for the fact that I have people around me who love me. When I think about it, with how rough things were in 2025, there were things I still achieved and hoped to achieve before the year runs out and that also is a big progress considering how things went.

One of the major things I achieved here was finding myself. If you know what it means to be lost, you would understand what it means to find oneself. At a point I lost everything, and this is not just money but my pride, purpose, mentality, my spirituality and even my sense of reasoning and intelligence. I became a shadow of myself and it was as though I was suffocating in my own body. I was always scared, always watching my back even with no one following me, I thought about running away a lot of the time, and when I couldn’t bring myself to run away because living began to look expensive I thought about ending it all. I did not just think about it, I tried to end it all, but unfortunately or fortunately, it was unsuccessful. Now I look back to see that one of the major beauties about life are the hard times because they become beautiful when they end and that was what it was for me.
Although I am not 100% myself at the moment, I am coming close to a better version of me. I am looking forward to getting certified by meta this month as a social media manager and if I achieve that it would be a big one for me. I have always looked to advance in different areas of my career and this would be a huge step in that advancement, hopefully it comes this week. For hive I have made it a habit of writing everyday, although my goal of writing for 365/366 days have been shattered, I am just happy I now have the ability to stay consistent. The goal next year will be to raise my HP and nothing else. For this year, it wasn’t what I expected, so I am content with what I got.
