I’m turning 25 on August 26th. So close! Yes, I’m getting old haha. At first I was super excited and planning this big party and told a bunch of friends to save the date, but a couple of weeks ago I just thought about how birthday celebrations are all about “ME”. This week, my little sister said the same thing and not too long after, my mom said something similar. Sooo, this confirmed my feelings, my loss of excitement in planning this big party. I still want to celebrate, but in a different way…and I’ve finally figured it out.

I’m spending the next 25 days helping others. 25 people in 25 days. Whether it’s prayer, apt hunting, helping with a job stuff, cover letter/resume, talking, connecting peeps…anything, let me know. I only hope/ask that 25 of y’all don’t ask me to do something with monetary value though (I know time is money lol but I mean buy me this/that, dinner, lunch, etc) because I want this to be deeper than that. #25daysforothers

Side note y’all, I feel like 25 is legit grown up age! I had some pretty aggressive goals to achieve by 25, but I’m not there yet. Socially, I’m great (so thankful for my fam and friends). Spiritually growing (I lovee Jesus!), financially and professionally…not anywhere near where I’d like to be lol. For everyone who feels me, stay encouraged — Proverbs 21:5, Proverbs 14:23, 2 Peter 1:10. Cheers to learning patience and what diligence really means.

One more thing…I love celebrating birthdays and I don’t think there is anything wrong with it, I usually do something every year. This is just where I am for my 25th : )
