I actually can’t believe how fast time has flown by. The first half of 2025 is officially done and dusted.
Last month was my birthday month, and it was my most broke birthday yet. Financially, I’m in the trenches, but I’m hopeful.
I got to challenge myself over the past month, though. To my surprise, I did some impromptu acting to help a friend out. I have never really done any acting in my life. But I thought to myself, what’s the worst that could happen? I bit the bullet and just gave it my best. It turned out way better than I thought, and I ended up having a great time.
My garden is doing reasonably well lately. I’m so proud of my spinach. I’m eager to see how the rest of this gardening season unfolds. I find gardening both rewarding and relaxing. Sometimes it’s a lot of work, but it’s work I don’t mind. It’s a great way to relieve stress.
I found myself suddenly missing people and having weird dreams this past month. I prayed about that a lot. The dreams I had were giving me such weird vibes, I wondered if they weren’t trying to tell me something. But hey, sometimes dreams are just dreams.
I spent a great deal of time thinking about my life and relationships and where they’re headed. There were moments I felt like an outcast among friends. I feel like we’re growing in different directions. The old me and the emerging me conflict. This can be a bit of a challenge. I also thought about my romantic relationships. I wondered what dating would look like for me now that I’ve changed my ways. The old ways weren’t working for me anyway.
In June, I realised just how little time I’ve spent writing this year. I can’t even tell you how that happened, but it did. I was shocked at the lack of published posts, so that’s also something I’ll be working on this month.
I’m learning that healing isn’t always pretty, but it’s honest.
I am excited for the rest of the year and what it brings.
How was June for you? What did it teach you about yourself or the people around you?
