A Black and White Start to the Year

This little black and white photo feels like the perfect way to start a new year. There is something very special about removing colors and keeping only what truly matters: the moment, the emotion, and the intention behind it. For me, this image represents a pause, a deep breath, and a calm beginning after everything the past year brought.

Starting the year this way reminds me that not everything has to be loud or full of color to be meaningful. Sometimes simplicity speaks louder. Black and white reflects reflection, clarity, and honesty with myself. It’s about recognizing who I am right now and accepting both my light and my shadows as part of my journey.

This new year feels like a blank page, just like this photo. I want to fill it with real moments, growth, self-love, and gratitude. I don’t need perfection, just intention and consistency. Step by step, day by day, choosing peace and moving forward with courage.

May this year bring calm mornings, strong decisions, and beautiful memories, even in the simplest forms. 🤍🖤
