Anything called Fun could be something unrealistic for some people these days because of the current situation of things in my country. The prices of food items has gone up at an exponential rate. Everything is so expensive and it's quite difficult for some to even feed well these days.
Apart from the fact that there is no money, there is this sadness people Cary about and the feeling of being inadequate.
Most people no longer think about fun anymore, all they want to do is eat to be alive. I am not one whose happiness is based on such things but at the same time, I feel sad sometimes when my students come to school on empty stomach. I feel sad sometimes when children stop me on the road to ask for money to buy food. I feel sad sometimes also when there are things I need to do for my kids but I have to avoid it because of how much it may affect my finances.
I can say that during the festive season in December, I didn't do anything fun. I didn't go out or do anything special. I wasn't sad in any way and I was really thankful to God for everything, my health, kids, family and career. I was grateful and I just took time to be alone.
I love to make myself happy no matter the situation and I do it well. Traveling is one of the things I love doing, I have so much fun anytime I'm on a journey no matter how long it is. Traveling gives me so much joy and I really love to travel a lot. So,I planned to travel during the April holiday, which I did.
I traveled to Benin which is about four hours from Lagos where I reside. All through the journey, I felt so happy as if I had no worries in this world. I took a lot of pictures of almost everything on the road. The journey was smooth and I prepared everything that made the journey a nice one.
When I got to Benin, it was from one event of fun to the other. I was pampered like a baby by my sister and I didn't feel like coming back home. The most amazing part of it was the moments I spent with my parents and siblings. We had a lot of fun together because it was my dad's birthday. There was a family party where we all danced, laughed and merry. It was a lovely day as we celebrated.
The next day, my sister took me out just to see some places in town and we took time to discuss a lot of things that wouldn't have been possible to talk about on phone. We shared experiences and I was really glad I made out time to visit them. I returned home after two weeks, The journey was worth it.
I can say this is the only fun experience I have had this year and I'm really glad I did.

Enjoyment galore 😁. It’s a good thing that despite all the struggles we get to find time for fun.
It’s the pizza and juice that is in my head right now 🥹

Very very indeed 😂

It's very important to take time out sometime and just chill 😂
Thanks for stopping by.
Your most welcomed dear
You really had so much fun, by the way what's the point of working so hard without giving enough rest to the body 🤣🤣
I really had fun more than I could describe in this post😂
About working and not resting my sis, that is like a suicide mission. We must find time to rest and unwind.
Thanks for stopping by.
Whenever I am frowning my dad will say "if you like don't make yourself happy, no one would as everyone is out looking for ways to make themselves happy". We all have to find ways to make ourselves happy.
That is very true.
We have to find ways to make ourselves happy no matter the situation.
Thanks for stopping by.
It's fun when we actually have fun and to see how God has been faithful is something we need to be grateful for. You sure had wonderful time with your sister. It also pains me to see children on empty stomach and others complaining of the harsh economy, we just need to appreciate God for life and enablement on our sides and to keep praying for the grace to lend helping hands too.
That is true. We need to be thankful always. May God heal our land.
