Checking In: How's Your Year Going So Far?

How are you?

We're 10 days into 2025, and it's time to take a moment to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with ourselves. The excitement of a fresh start may be starting to wear off, and reality is setting in.

For me, the past 10 days have been a rollercoaster of emotions. I've faced some crazy challenges that have tested my patience, strength, and faith. But despite the stress, I've learnt to always have a positive mindset and energy towards the situation.

I've learned that it's okay to not have it all together, and that it's essential to prioritize self-care and seek support when needed. Whether it's taking a relaxing bath, reading a good book, or chatting with a friend, I've made sure to create time for activities that nourish my mind, body, and soul.

In fact, I've had this recurring feeling that "joy is coming." It's a sense of hope and anticipation that reminds me that better days are ahead.

This is a safe space for every one of us in this community, where you are to be free to share your feelings without being judged and that is why I’m sharing my own experience. As I share my own experiences, I'm reminded that we're all in this together. We're all navigating our own unique challenges and triumphs. We're all trying to find our way, make sense of our lives, and build meaningful connections with others.

That's why I want to check in with you, my love, my gist partner. I want to know how you're doing, really doing. Not just the surface-level answer, but the honest truth.

What's been on your mind lately? What's been weighing on your heart? What's been bringing you joy and fulfillment?

I want to hear about your struggles and your successes. I want to offer support and encouragement. I want to remind you that you're not alone, that we're all in this together.

So, I want to ask you, my gist partner, genuinely, how are you?
