If there’s one thing the year 2025 taught me, it’s that with hardship comes ease. The year started very rough for me after I lost two important people in my life. It was a very hard time for because losing these people wasn’t something I expect. For a while, I was in denial, then in shock, and it finally hit me that they were actually gone and I had to come to terms with that.
Fast forward, I had to move on with my life like nothing had happened which was hard on me, but I had to find a way to live life because it was the least I could do for myself. I pulled myself up and got it kicking. I already had a lot of working piled up waiting for me and so I was so busy I barely had time to breathe. The year was going until something bad happened. Two of my close relatives were involved in a very fatal accident. On the day it happened, no one knew what was going on because we had to travel to where it happened to know what the situation was like.
The days and weeks that followed were filled with hospital visits and many more just to make sure our loved ones were okay. It was more than hard for my family but we had to stick together. Today, they are both alive and still recovering and we thank God for the chance to live again. As happy as I am that nothing bad really happened that was beyond handing, there’s a lot I have learnt from this experience. I have always believed that your family always come through for you no matter what and this situation proved it even more. This experience brought us all as a family closer than we had ever been. The support we had from relatives but close and far away was beyond the explainable. And this thought me that there’s love in this world and there are good people also in this world.
People we didn’t even know that much came through for us in ways we never expected. The everyday visits, the support and help was more than we had expected. And oh, what are we without our families in such time. If there is one thing I learnt from the year, it’s that some situations teach you to see the good in things.
all images belong to me.
