It feels unreal that we’re already in October, with just two months left until 2025. It seems like yesterday we were ringing in the New Year, making plans, setting intentions, and now here we are, staring down the end of the year. Time has truly flown by, and it’s a strange feeling—like the days have blurred into one long stretch without me really being able to grasp or enjoy them.
When I look back at 2024, I can’t pinpoint any standout moments or milestones. It’s not that nothing happened, but everything seemed to rush past me. I wasn’t able to process what was happening around me. Every day just seemed to slip away, and I didn’t get to savor them as much as I wanted to. It’s like I’ve been moving through life without really living it.
I used to be the type of person who set goals—yearly, monthly, even weekly. I would look ahead, plan things out, and feel motivated to check off achievements. But recently, I’ve let that go. These days, I’m just trying to get through each day, hoping I’ll make it safely. My focus now is on something much simpler: making sure I’m mentally and physically healthy. That’s become my priority. I just want to feel okay, to be okay. Goals can wait; my well-being can’t.
And now, with 2025 looming, I feel a mix of emotions. A part of me is excited—a new year brings the possibility of fresh starts, of new opportunities. But if I’m being honest, I’m mostly scared. The future is unknown, and not knowing what’s coming makes me anxious. There’s a fear in stepping into the next chapter without a clear sense of direction, without control over what lies ahead.
But maybe that’s okay. I’ve come to realize that I don’t have to have it all figured out. Time will keep moving, no matter what, but I can try to slow down and be present. So as 2024 comes to an end, I’m reminding myself to breathe, to live in the now. I don’t need to rush through life or constantly look ahead. Sometimes, surviving the day is enough.
As we approach 2025, I’ll keep focusing on what truly matters—taking care of myself, staying grounded, and accepting that it’s okay not to know what the future holds. Here’s to embracing whatever comes next, even if it’s scary, and just taking things one day at a time.
