Granted. This christmas and new year are quite merry and happy, but they are the last.

Granted. You love the next year. We all do. Then, as the clock strikes midnight, and we welcome in 2025, we all feel a strange disturbance. We feel dread and fear, and we realize we’ll never be happy again. 2024 was the last time we’d ever experience happiness, and we wasted it by going to our jobs to pay for rent.
