Some highlights of my 2022
Hello everybody, how is it going?
2022 was the year that happened a lot to me, good and bad.
I want to highlight a few things I got in 2022.
First
I bought land to build my house. That was huge for me because now I have a place to make my home with everything I need to build my dreams, like my music studio, chill with friends, and probably have kids and play with them.
Second
I moved to the capital, Brasilia, which was one of the things I had as a resolution for 2022. I was living in a small city far away from my friends, to give you an idea, I had to travel four hours to my best friend’s house. Now it is less than one hour, and I have all the benefits of living in a big city like cine, malls (in brazil, we call shopping), and education. I want to go back to college or start to study music.
Third
I made good money as a software developer and started to invest. Investment is something that I have spent a bunch of time learning in 2022 and still learning. Multiplying the income is not easy, but I have a small start and plan to grow it in 2023.
Fourth
I got in the gym. I am thirty now and have started to see the aging in my body: belly fat, I was always tired, and my skin aging fast. So, I started a workout, but I still need to get more serious.
Fifth
I got layoff from one of my contracts which were half of my income. But I recovered fast, and the situation changed my mind. Now, I am dashing to get a passive income. To be dependent on a company is not a smart idea. It doesn’t matter whether the company is good or bad. The economy of a country can change direction without notice.
Sixth
I got divorced. After eight years, I am single again, and I have bad moments sometimes; it is not easy to deal with something like that. But, with time, I believe this emptiness and sadness will be gone. Right now, I feel terrible because I have a whole history with my ex, and both were happy together, but I disconnected from her, and as a result, we had to continue on different paths. We did everything to save our marrying, and it didn’t work. I wish this part were other.
Seventh
I started with therapy. Unfortenality, I didn’t have the best parents, and as a result, I have struggled all my life to deal with my feelings and to understand who I am. That made me suffer. I was taught that men could not cry, show emotions, or even make friends and that I should be a rock. The reality, I’ll never be something like that. With therapy, I was able to accept myself. So I can cry, show emotions, and be happy. So go to therapy if you need.
Conclusion
2022 wasn’t my best year, but I have learned a lot, especially about my feelings and how life can be more complicated. I’ll never give up, and I still have dreams I want to achieve. For 2023 I’ll do my best; I’ll put into practice everything I have learned in the last year, and I hope you can see it. Thank you.
