Good morning and welcome back or welcome to Morning Ray. I'm your host, Lan. Today's episode is one about

loneliness and about navigating friendships and adulthood, post-grad life, young adulthood.

Maybe you could be older, whatever your age is,

but it is going to be about loneliness, and I know I'm not the only one currently struggling with

this, and going through a traditional, traditional, a transitional period in my life. And,

you know, I think God really laughed at me when I said that I hope

2025 is a bit easier because 2024 was probably one of the hardest years that I've been through,

the most challenging, but also the most rewarding. And I fear that 2025 might just be another one of those based off of how January and February is going so far.

But nonetheless, you have to grow through what you go through.

And you know what?

I wouldn't want an easier path because if I had such an easy path I wouldn't have anything of

worth of meaning of depth to provide for you guys to discuss with you guys I do think this might be

insane but I do think it's my life's purpose to I don't say like it's my life's purpose to struggle but I think it's my life's purpose to, I don't say like it's my life's purpose to

struggle, but I think it's my purpose in life to help other people go through experiences

that I've experienced or similar experiences and help them navigate that and help them find

the light in any darkness that they may be experiencing. I don't think I'm God. I don't

think I'm some savior. I don't think I'm this like person on a pedestal over here. But I do think I have

had a lot of different struggles in my life and I've gone through some traumas per se and I've

experienced a lot of hardships. I've experienced loneliness. I have

experienced rejection. I have experienced what it's like to put your life and your thoughts,

your insecurities and everything on the internet, allowing for my peers, family, friends,

strangers to place judgments positive or negative.
