As 2025 comes to a close, I’m not looking for dramatic conclusions. What I feel instead is something quieter and rare: completion. This year brought change at work, clarity through writing, closure through honoring my mother’s memory, and a deeper appreciation for family, growth, and humanity. I say goodbye to 2025 with gratitude and welcome 2026 with intention.
