Best thing that happened to me in 2025? Him.
This is Ese — my emotional support dog, my tiny shadow, my built-in therapist with four legs.
2025 didn’t come in gently. It came loud, heavy, and emotionally expensive. But then this little guy showed up and somehow did what years of coping mechanisms couldn’t.
He grounds me.
He makes me get out of bed.
He reminds me that comfort doesn’t have to be complicated.
Some days, the win isn’t a promotion or a glow-up.
It’s a warm body curled up on your chest saying, “You’re not doing this alone.”
Best decision. Best companion. Best thing to happen to me this year — hands (and paws) down. 🤍
