2024 was quite a tough year for me. Although things became easier career-wise, my entire plan of building the FreeCompliments community was turned upside down because I had an important change of priorities: taking care of family's health first and foremost. I also struggled with a bit of a mental breakdown (although I managed to hide it at work). I do hope that this year made me a little bit more of a man, although I'd still have a very long way to go if I'm to live up to my own standards.
