what a weird year.

i have somehow been the happiest and saddest that i have ever been.

i have learned how to let go and how to hold on at the same time.

i have lost versions of myself that i thought i would be forever.

i met new ones i never expected.

want to know the detailed story? [click here](/#2025).

february - october 2025 was the best time of my life. i'm actually living my life, same as i dreamed of.

i created almost 7 passive income sources.

and then the biggest downfall of my life just came. on november 3, my twitter account got suspended.

and then on november 6, my medium account got suspended. my affiliates and sponsorship came from medium, so they are also gone. read the full medium story here: [my medium account got suspended](https://www.kalashvasaniya.com/blog/my-medium-account-got-suspended).

lost 4 income sources out of 7 in just 4 days.

story not over...

the other 3 remaining income sources were 2 startups and 1 job.

1 startup kinda failed and the other i didn't launch, so total we can say 6 income sources gone. and now 1 income source left - that's my job. and that's what i hate. i don't want it.

and yeah, on december 13, i lost my job too. i went from 0 to $1800+ to 0 in 2025. what a weird year.

"weird is just another word for growth."

there were days that broke me and days that stitched me back together in quiet ways.

i loved.

i healed.

i tried again.

and somehow even after everything, my heart still believes in beautiful endings.

2025 is the year of growth.

2026 i'm coming back for everything.
