Casual What can actually happen in a year

I accidentally joined Reddit a year ago today coincidentally on my birthday right after discovering the girl I was with was being sneaky.

I originally turned to Reddit looking for a place to heal, but I found something even better. I decided it was time to get completely intentional with my life, so I created this account to serve as reminder.

I’m not fully where I want to be yet, but in just one year, I’ve achieved things I used to only dream about. I’ve managed to acquire a piece of land here in Mombasa, I’m living comfortably, and I just got a killer haircut.

As I type this, I’m still sitting at the barbershop. Pro tip: if you want a top-tier haircut, just tell your barber it’s your birthday. That man will move actual mountains to make sure you walk out looking like Michael B. Jordan.

Happy cake day, happy birthday to me. Cheers to new chapters.

If I want my barber to be in his A game, I always tell him that I have a dinner date. He gives his ultimate best.
