Blog 5: A new month- May 2025

Time is speeding past everyone. The fact that we are in May 2025 is just unbelievable.

We are actually in the first day of May!  I’m typing this out while reviewing and editing some of the things that need to be done during the next few days.

For people living in the US we have Mother’s day around the corner, that will be happening in less than two weeks. It is surprising how fast time has gone when it comes to work and personal goals.

At this point, I’m hoping that everyone will be moving forward with these upcoming days. Even though we don’t know what will be happening next in the coming weeks. I’m hoping that people will take the time in being with loved ones.

During this year, it’s important to know that family can come in different ways and doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to be related to someone by blood. Something that I’ve realized over the years is that sometimes we need to get outside of our comfort zones and review the trusted people that we have within our circle.

The good ‘mothers’ that we have in our lives comes in so many ways and forms but we can become bounded with the common idea of how a family should be defined. As people, we tend to forget our ability of defining who our true family is in our lives.

I want people to remember and consider this as we take steps into the month of May. I know there is this level of uncertainty that has been globally felt among many people. But we shouldn’t forget the opportunity of providing gratitude and love to the people that we care about and have been positive/healthy associates in our life.

Our expression of gratitude can come in providing a card or making someone dinner. It doesn’t have to be big, it is not the price but the action that matters the most. Feel free to leave a review!
