Tinaa Dattaa writes a letter to 2024: 'Dear 2024, You weren't gentle, but you were necessary. You taught me strength I didn't know i had, Wisdom i didn't know i needed, And priorities i didn't know mattered.. . It feels like the general theme of 2024 was that it was far from many people's favourite year. For me, it wasn't easy -- but it was essential and necessary.. it forced me to take a hard look at my life, stripping away everything that no longer served me and leaving behind what truly matters. In the process, I learned to release the thing's i have been clinging on to , out of habit, fear or merely comfort. And i was reminded of the importance of aligning my life with my values, my purpose and my peace.
'The truth is, sometimes the hardest years are more transformative.. They push us in ways we never expected, breaking us open so that we can grow in new directions that align with our higher selves. They teach us resilience by forcing us to face challenges HEAD-ON …. They show us clarity by removing distractions.. and most importantly, they remind us that growth isn't always glamorously Glam ~ it;s often messy , uncomfortable and filled with uncertainty.
'2024 may not have been easy, but it was a year of immense growth for me.. It reminded me to prioritise the things that truly deeply matters- my relationships, my well being, and the pursuit of a life filled with purpose and authenticity.. While i couldn’t call it my fav year, I am deeply grateful for what it taught me.. The best thing i learned this year was how to embrace my life , even in the middle of the strom..Problems will always exist, but joy can , too.
'So if 2024 felt heavy for you too, those difficult, uncomfortable years are often the ones that shape us into who we are meant to be. They clear the way for something better. Hold onto the lessons , trust in the process, and remember that transformation doesn’t happen in comfort zones - it happens in the mess , in the struggle , and the release.. Here’s to welcoming the light that comes after the storm. Looking forward to a great 2025. And on that note goodbye, 2024... Just find a reason to smile , to laugh,and to keep going on #happynewyear.'
