hey guys, i know the last blog post was kinda heavy to absorb because of the nature of the topic and i apologize. i tend to be intense a lot more than necessary but it had to be said. but today is the last day of the entire 2018...can you believe it?!!! woohoooo!!! i know i say this every year but this year really flew past faster than usual. 😋😋
i remember when i was younger and each single day used to seem like forever and Christmases couldn't get here quickly enough. oh the drag. but now i am always so exhausted after the stress of getting to and from work and putting in 8 full hours that it is really all i can do to sleep and wake up. insomnia permitting, of course 😲. i think the older you grow and the more your responsibilities, the more of a blur every week seems to go by. and in effect the entire year. but we are here now! older, wiser (yes Calistus, i know this doesn't apply to everyone 😶) and definitely more experienced.
so to round off the year i decided to conduct my first twitter poll on how nigerians prefer to usher in the new year. it was a pretty simple poll but then i realized that no matter how good you think your content is, you need to market it and get people's attention. so here's a quick thank you to all my more famous twitter friends who participated and put the word out. it means a lot to me.
so what do the results say?
yep, you guessed right! most people pray in the new year in a church or mosque or other place of religious worship. no surprises there considering the conservative nature of the Nigerian society (yes Calistus 😴 i know there's nothing conservative about our music videos). I daresay i have done each of the above options at one time or the other (sometimes on the same night 😜) but lets not get personal.
it would be interesting as a next step though to get people's perspective as to why they choose a certain method and if it works for them. its very clear that hope for a better future is what keeps us moving forward and prayer solidifies that hope in our hearts, but the truth is that for some people who had a challenging year, celebrating the fact that they are still around against the odds may push them towards a beer at midnight, so judge thou not nobody etc etc.
regardless and however you choose to ring in the new year, may it be everything you wish for and more. may you find growth in every area of your life and have the peace of mind, health and wealth to enjoy every waking moment. here's to an amazing 2019! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 see y'all around.
PS: please send in your comments on any of the blog posts i would love to hear your view and promise to publish them
PSS: Calistus is my new imaginary side kick. politically correct goodie too shoes, that one.
PSSS (?): tomorrow we will be discussing the 'starting right' part...all about achievable resolutions etc etc. 😴😴😴😴😴 stop it, it'll be fun.
