2025. This was a faith-filled year, more than the past 4 years. My life has been beautiful chaos but I always say I wish someone else could do it and I just watch. I completed my MFA, moved home and got a job (which was a blessing), then in the same year moved back to New York with a good job! I’ve lived 3 lives.
I didn’t think God could put me back in NY again; I thought I had ☝🏾 shot to make this work. Now I see this is as much his plan as it is mine; in 2024 I was anxious about the new year, 2025 I was determined to be hopeful (and that was truly tested) and now in 2026 I feel like its all possible and like people are betting on me; it’s time I bet on myself.
Prose inspired by There Will be Blood and my beloved plants 🙂 decided to include a very short recap of January. The real highlights weren’t captured so here’s the nonsense. —GE Gresha
