Goodbye, 2025!

2025, too, comes to an end. I do this exercise at the end of each year to see how much I've changed. However, I suppose it's not quite right to just look at my yearly progress by comparing the two endpoints of the year, like the two endpoints of a line. What constitutes a year are the ebbs and flows, where every curve has its own significance and lessons to learn. This year, too, was marked by both happiness and sadness. What was different, perhaps, was their percentage and how I've been handling those specific scenarios. The most significant takeaway for me, I suppose, would be that I should limit my obsession with finding the cause behind individual events. Instead, I need to continue developing my ability to handle those situations. There's no limit to this kind of personal growth, which is why it's not a one-time activity but rather a continuous process.

I look forward to enjoying this process of growth, even if it happens to be painful. Those reading this, you must have your own takeaways. I hope that in the upcoming year, you too can follow through on what you've been building all these years, or rebuild if it was all somehow destroyed.

Happy New Year!
