I never really noticed how work makes time pass so fast. These past two years were extremely exhausting, yet they feel like they passed in a couple of months. Whenever I felt nostalgic enough to come back here, there was always someone leaving a kind comment, and that meant more to me than I can properly explain. At the same time, looking at last year’s uploads brings a sense of grief, because I simply did not have the time or energy to make music.

This feeling has been building up for a long time, and I reached a point where I realized I cannot continue living like this. There is no realistic way to fit meaningful creative work into the schedule I had. I tried, but forcing it drained all the joy out of the process.

Since October, I have been attending psychotherapy to take better care of myself and address overworking. This year, I am intentionally slowing down and trying to reconnect with my own small music corner again. I have a few tracks I have been holding onto, and I plan to release them. Some of them are imperfect, but they reflect a real part of my life, and I want to share them as they are.

I am keeping this message short because I do not want it to come across as a rant. I mainly wanted to respond to those who have been asking where I have been. Writing this already makes me feel a bit lighter.
