🎆its been a year🎆

2025 has been a year that asked for patience at every turn. It felt heavy in ways that were hard to ignore, shaped not just by personal challenges but by the larger state of our surroundings. Watching things unfold made it difficult to stay hopeful at times. Even now, looking ahead to next year brings mixed feelings. Still, despite the frustration and uncertainty, I want to believe that 2026 can be something we claim for ourselves rather than something that simply happens to us. For much of this year, I found myself moving through life on autopilot being a straight NPC just showing up and getting through the days. But in that routine, there was also escape. I went to more shows this year than I ever have before, and those moments mattered more than I realized at the time. Music, crowds, and shared energy became a way to feel connected when everything else felt disconnected. On top of that, I had the chance to play some truly killer events and shows myself, opportunities I’m genuinely grateful for. Those experiences reminded me why I care so deeply about what I do. 2025 reminded me how important the people around me are. I’m incredibly grateful for everyone who showed up, supported, and shared both the highs and the exhausting moments, it’s what made the year survivable and even enjoyable. As the year closes, I’m carrying cautious hope into 2026. It doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to be ours.
