What positive events have taken place in your life over the past year?

A few small things happened this year, and they quietly pushed me forward.

I started practicing the violin.

No big reason—just wanted a clear sound in my daily routine.

I learned to slow down.

To push when I should, and to pause when I need to. My mind finally has some room.

Work feels more manageable.

Not easier, but I know my limits and how to pace myself.

I found a bit more courage.

Moments where I would’ve stepped back before, I stood my ground.

No major events.

Just a steady sense of growth—calm, unhurried, and honest.

And that made this year a little better than the last.
