I'm participating in this week's contest which prompts are;

1️⃣ WHAT ARE YOU MOST GRATEFUL FOR RIGHT NOW?

Or

2️⃣ SHARE ONE NICE THING ABOUT YOURSELF!

Gratitude is a state of being appreciative of what was done for you or on behalf of you, it's a condition when you breakdown while recalling or piecing together all the goodness, love, grace, assistance rendered and every achievement of any sort you acquired, most importantly it is the process or the journey that was embarked to attain such aim which in return is appreciated.

Sometimes one needs to sit down and recollect all the things he or she witnessed that has occurred in their various lives in that way you will have a reason to be grateful for all those things... just like this past year which is just a few days ago, I have witnessed so many atrocities befalling individuals here and there, so many tragedies at the same time I experience some difficult situations that I found myself in, I was a victim of various circumstances, therefore, I have countless reason to be grateful! I will state out the reason why I am grateful;

... For instance, I will use a situation of a young girl who died from an accident that everyone perceived as a spiritual attack or some sort of infliction. She's a pretty and very sweet girl, who's in her early 20s who has been working so hard to fend for herself and her needs, according to rumors she's a hot chick! she jumps from one man to the other according to talks but for some reason, she traveled with some group of guys and from one thing or the other she died... - It's really none of my business on how she runs her lifestyle but what saddens me most is her death, it shocked me and I recalled times when I almost encountered an accident on my way to school, I remembered series of dreams and visions about unforeseen tragedy and how I maneuver them or rather overpowered them with prayers!
In conclusion, I am deeply grateful for being alive, healthy, and strong to witness another awesome year. I truly give God all the glory for all his guidance, protection, and favor which he bestowed to my guiding angel for my sake! I'm truly truly grateful for his protection of my family, love ones, associates, and friends...I can't thank him enough!

... My needs, everyone has their list of needs ranging from the highest priority to the lowest priority just like the order of preference. I have pressing needs which have been delayed because of financial instability but I was able to solve them randomly. I felt the joy and satisfaction that comes from settling debts of longing desires. I felt complete lol because I did it all by myself and for that am grateful for all the provisions which were provided either as gifts or otherwise... In conclusion , I am super grateful because I thought it wouldn't be possible to attain such things that were written down by me ... chuckles...

... My Family, I know quite well that things aren't so rosy in my family, we have our ups and downs, challenges faced by every member of the family, disagreement, and conflicts although we lost one precious gem (granny) that we hold burial on October 20th which was a total success, on behalf of my cousins, aunts, uncles, nephews, nieces and loved ones I say am grateful ...In all conclusion am grateful for the travel to and fro on each of my family members, I say a big thank you to Almighty for the safe journey, he has been so merciful and kind.

Second Prompt

“SHARE ONE NICE THING ABOUT YOURSELF!”

Firstly, I am nice, lol, aren't I? Maybe you don't know, but I am all simple with some principles guiding me and my life. And that's not an essay for me, it's just blabbing and here it goes; first and foremost I must say that am not perfect at all, am simply just a human bound to make errors but I know that in every human being there is something awesome or unique about that individual.

You don't know a person till you get close enough to that person to say “uh she's a good girl" or “he's a nice dude", a friend of mine came to my hostel to spend the holidays with me, that was on 30th of December,2021 around 6 pm.
She said “babe I want you to take me out, I want to party out with you" or “let us go to the beach" I told her to first freshen up, eat and take a short nap.

Shortly after the nap, I placed a ride for Uber to take us to Victoria Island for a celebrity show (Naira Marley [Marlian fest]), she was so curious and excited all at the same time, she wanted a time out for just girls and yeah I gave her that! We went shopping the next day after the show...and she shopped for a few blouses and trousers which in return she was truly grateful for because I gave her a bit of friendly advice to not purchase something she won't regret and she took it... after much shopping she was satisfied.

Immediately after we dropped home, we went out for some refreshments. It was really awesome, we had barbecue fish and two glasses of smoothie... yummy 😋... I took care of her needs, gave her comfortability and open space to do as she please, she later told me the day she left that she never knew that I was this nice at all. She said and I quote “I thought you were some random girl ” but I do clear those doubts I had for you! You're a Sweet friend, fun to be with and very comfortable to align with!

Aside from that I have always been an openhearted person, bold, simple, and lovely, I admit I have flaws but what can I say hmmm am human and it's definitely not an excuse to be silly and I always make changes in my life, character and otherwise if the case may be!

Thanks for reading!
I hope you enjoyed reading!
Compliments of the season!
Happy New Year 🎊.
