[From the Chronicles of the Twelve Gates of Twenty-Six]
Dear 2026,
I must confess that you have proven to be a formidably exciting tour guide, possessing the rare capacity to move me from a state adjacent to solitude to one primarily characterized by the sound of laughter.
I have no recollection of what my first encounter with June felt like, solely because I was too stunned by the sudden upheaval I was experiencing at the time.
The House of Simeon felt like a quiet expectation when compared to Gad’s house. Not to say that Simeon’s House was void of fulfillment – oh no, that would be a fallacy of the highest order! Rather, it is just that the House of Gad seems to always be celebrating something.
On my first day here, I was welcomed by June with a hearty, “Welcome to good fortune, Miss.” At the time, I thought it was simply a generic, hospitable way of inviting me in. It definitely wasn’t!
These people are constantly surrounded by blessings – wonders that truly cannot be numbered. It is a constant party around the clock. Today we are celebrating a financial blessing, tomorrow an advancement in purpose, and the next, a promotion in the social sphere.
There were moments I almost had to ask, “When does the celebration end?” Thank God I didn’t voice that curiosity, because I have now come to terms with the fact that it likely never will. They will forever celebrate and praise God for every win, every helper, and every stroke of fortune. This, I am certain, is why they are so blessed.
So, 2026, here are my honest thoughts concerning this past chapter of the journey. I am grateful – deeply grateful – for the countless blessings, the profound revelations, and the answered prayers I never even voiced. I am thankful for all the ways I have grown along the way; I had fully expected the growth, yet it has completely surpassed my expectations.
So far, I have been hosted at six of your gates, with six more left to go!
July has come to claim me already. I am excited, as per usual, 2026.
I’ll be back with even greater testimonies!
