I can hear the Christmas bells ringing already, and what does it mean when we start hearing those sounds and start feeling that early morning cold? Well, it tells us that the year is coming to an end. It still amazes me how this year ran so fast. Well, to some, it was very slow, and to others, "I can't tell." Maybe they are in the fast category.
This year has been amazing and holds a lot of memorable events that I can't forget easily. Still swimming in the feeling of amazement, "like I can't believe this year is ending soon." Yeah!!! I know I've repeated this statement severally but then I'm just amazed. Firstly I'm happy and super grateful for the year, it wasn't easy, at some point I felt like giving up on myself, felt like something was missing in my life then I calmed my mind down and viewed deep inside my heart and found out that everything was working perfectly within me, just that I wasn't satisfied with all of it.
Then I said to myself, "I am in a place of growth, and I'm gonna keep growing." Ever since I developed this mindset, it's been helping me navigate through life easily without stress. When did I develop this mentality? "Well," it was in April. I found myself feeling lost in my thoughts and being stagnant. I was able to swim out of those negative thoughts fueling my head, and I came out victorious. Another highlight in April was when I went sightseeing with my friends.
My friends and I had been anticipating a get-together even before the year started, and the event was to take place in April, so when the month came, we knew something was up, and we, on the other hand, were up for it as well. So when the day came, we went to the most tourist site in the city I'm based in "rivers state" to be precise. When we got to the place, it was looking a bit different from the last time I visited. "That's growth." We walked around the park while taking some ice cream and talking.

Then we finally sat down at a spot and shared stories about ourselves, our life experiences, the things we've achieved so far, and what we are looking forward to accomplishing. April is the month I reflected on myself when my friends and I were conversing. After the long chat, we went further into having a boat ride: "See me screaming like a baby" an adult like me, but I'm glad I survived it.
Now it's not just April that something eventful happened, maybe I'm not gonna call this particular one eventful because it started as a joke and became very serious, in October my smartphone started developing some issues, at first I thought it was a mental illness because it was going and coming then boom all of a sudden it became unstable like "it never left again". Finally, my phone got very bad and needed replacing, then I looked around and searched myself if I could get a brand new one for myself, well fortunately I was capable of that.
So I got a new phone in October, and I'm super grateful for that, I'm glad I've gotten to the stage in my life where I don't have to look unto others before getting things done. Currently, I look inwardly and just get things for myself, "like my new smartphone." It was even the ease that accompanied it became more surprising to me.
All the months were incredible, no doubt, but April and October hold a special place in my heart with the little achievements and memories I made.
