WHEN DO I FEEL MOST ALIVE ( ABUNDANCE TRIBE BIWEEKLY QUESTION)
Hello Lovelies,I feel really excited posting for the first time in this community where I will be sharing my answers to the biweekly amazing question.
With the way things are going in today's world,you would agree with me that it is very possible to be alive and not feel alive. As humans,with the most part of our lives being on a routine ride,there is that tendency to easily feel bored,unhappy and even depressed. But there are still a few things that sets one at this very high place where there seem to be a different air to breathe in and out. Trust me,that feeling is heavenly.
I have studied me for a long time to know that the smallest and simplest of things gives me so much joy. Yes,we all are different and so what I find to be that thing or those things that makes me feel most alive might not even be on your list - hahahaha.
I am passionate about a few,and somewhat funny things and these things gives me so much strength and reason to want to live life more.
- MUSIC (listening,singing ) :
Music brings this unexplainable warmth. I call music "my escape" because it really is. It's a shield from all the noise and issues of life. It fits also as a soothing balm when necessary. I like to listen to music and I love to sing. Whenever I sing,I feel like I am in a another world. I feel lighter and smaller - I feel comfortable. I have been singing from when I was a kid and singing has been my life. Singing has saved me many times than I can count. I hope to push it even more next year by getting involved in vocal trainings and learn to play the keyboard as well.
- FAMILY AND VERY CLOSE FRIENDS - Family is one very important part of my life. And I am blessed to have an awesome family as mine. They are fun to have and be around. Many atimes,they spark up those lights you never really thought you had on the inside. We do a lot of chats and jokes in my family and it is often exciting.
I do not like to put it that I have a "circle" of friends but a "dot" as I can be quite selective when it comes to my choice of friends. I am so intentional about those I let into my space. Guess I have had a few bad experiences when it has to do with being close to people I call "friends". But you know stuffs happen,so I still stay open,I mean you never know. The few friends I have are somewhat family. We do a lot of confiding and learning from ourselves. Two of my closest friends 
Whenever I am with family and very close friends I feel very alive. Also,just remembering them brings same feeling.
- BOOKS (reading and writing) -
I feel most alive when I write or read books. Books have a way of making you travel without moving. It makes you gain exposure to places you have never been. I like to read books about adventures,romance,finance,love,marriage, etc.
"Writing" is close to "singing" for me. I get to easily pen down my thoughts and feelings the way they come.
GIVING
I won't even call me a "giver" because I do know So far,I haven't given as much I would love to. But I just always love the feeling that comes after giving somebody something. I often feel fulfilled especially when the Receiver had never thought of receiving such gift from anyone.MILLINERY
Making a hat,embellishing a beret,just creating something with my hands makes me feel alive.
I learnt this skill somewhat close to this time last year and in the space of a year plus,I have learnt a lot and I am enjoying my ride.
Having to make a beautiful outcome out of a combination of things is mind blowing and has a way of expanding my creative world and that feeling I won't trade for anything.
Thanks for engaging my blog. I hope you learnt a thing or more?
