No matter how hard the past is, you can always begin again. – Buddha
Happy 2025 you all!
I hope the first week of the year has been decent for you all so far. Like they say, it is just another Sun rise but the change of calendar year makes us all cling to hope, new beginnings and fresh starts.
I love to do my favorite things on the first of a new year. So this year and like the last, I stepped out for a long morning walk with my friends who are also my workout buddies. As we were walking back home, I spotted and showed my friends this patch where Sun rays were falling and the trees were tall and swaying. It was a poetic scene. One of the friends urged me to go pose so she could click me. She even told me to ‘not’ stand straight but walk to her and that’s where I got lucky.
This is me. Happy around trees, with friends and being free. I wish that you all be you in whatever way gives you energy.
Take care and see you around!
