Hey bartender, could I please have a whiskey neat? I've been craving one for a while.
It's been an interesting year for me. I hope for you too. My career and personal life trajectory changed significantly this year. I hope it was for the better. There are many unknowns, as I have to find a new place to live, integrate in another social mesh. But I am coming back to a somewhat known territory with friends and family not too far by, so that's a plus. I raise my glass to hopefully more meaningful, pleasant moments together now that I am in the area.
To all sitting here and beyond, may 2025 see you in good health. May it let you greet old faces and new ones and see you grow together. May it bring you patience, courage and the wisdom to enjoy happy moments. Happy new year.
