2025 was a year I didn’t expect to have, I hope one day I can open up to the world about it and can use the challenges I went through as inspirational stories. I never knew I could get so low, I never knew Life could get so low, I had to look at myself in situations I NEVER thought I’d find myself in, but the humbling lesson is knowing I can survive that. I never knew friends could be so disloyal and selfish, and it makes me think to years prior where I would complain about friends being like that but when I compare 2025 to the rest of those years prior, I begin to think “perhaps I was forcing the hate” because I haven’t seen anything like this before (and I pray I never do again). I’ll be sure to keep my real friends around and not give time to those who don’t deserve it. Time is everything, Love is everything, Money is only for bills not happiness… but without it, it has the ability to make you unhappy.
I thank the universe for my trials and tribulations this year as it brought me close to God. The loss of friends and family (not through death but loss of love) allowed me to turn to whom I had once forgotten. God has been by my side throughout this year in a way no other has (a part from my very loving, wonderful girlfriend; Esther). Without God things wouldn’t have been so clear to me, I also realize that in life you have to let go of things to make space for the things that actually serve you. A false Serve is like paying for something with Monopoly money; it looks like you got bank, but when push comes to shove, the value of it equates to nothing, in fact the game itself is worth more than the fake money you use to play it with. Surround yourself with people who ACTUALLY show up, not just give empty words.
Letting go of people you would consider family/best friend can be more of a necessity to your survival than you realize. Picking myself and walking away allowed me to pick God and he will never allow me to pick those people again, amen.
lack of being organized was also my downfall, routine is key. I’m glad that after 2 years of depression I found myself in the gym again, losing weight is not easy but consistency translates in many different ways in your life. I plan to show up for myself the way I work out. Get there on time, don’t leave till what needs to be done is done, and after grinding for days, months or years, step back and bask in the results.
I also plan to and WILL make a lot more money, because I also realized I was never money motivated. That IS NOT GOOD. and for anyone reading this, especially the purist artists. GET MONEY MOTIVATED and learn your finical literacy better. I took a few L’s but never again. We move and we learn.
Safe to say 2025 was a year filled with lessons and if I could do it all again, would I? fuck no. But I walk away knowing that when the fire turns into a blaze, I leave the scorched scene with my head held high and spirit in check.
From the moment 2026 comes into Fruition and going forward I pray that I never have a 2025 again and may my life be fruitful and peaceful and wealthy (in all aspects).
God is the greatest, 2025; farewell and thank you for the lessons.
