HOW TO MAKE THIS HOLIDAY A MEMORABLE ONE

Hey Family!

2023 is fast approaching and of course! The best Holiday Season CHRISTMAS is almost here. Nothing, absolutely nothing ever goes wrong at Christmas you know. Christmas is a time for loved ones, families, and couples to get together and catch up on what they have missed throughout the year. The year 2022 was indeed a long one! You will agree that this year felt like 3 years in one because the energy it brought was a whole lot to handle but it was worth living!

Many people anticipate the Christmas season, particularly in countries abroad where the Xmas Season is a time for love and togetherness. Estranged friends and family get to reconcile because they do not want to ruin their Christmas. For a traditional white man, a happy ending at Christmas is the Season’s spirit. Well, why not, that was what Christmas was made for.

Now let’s come back to Africa. It is actually heart-breaking that Africans, particularly the motherland country, Nigeria always regard Christmas as a "one-day thing" or ‘make I no come finish my money because of Christmas, January dey o’. What happened to the time when Christmas was a time to be happy even though there was every reason to be unhappy, it was overlooked. It is sad and also hilarious. Although, there’s nothing more perfect than someone who knows how to spend his money wisely but, it’s the Xmas Season, let love and laughter live, please.

This year has been a lot, with so many highs and lows but we should be thankful for the experience because it has only prepared us for the good things coming in the new year. So this is what we should do, cut the sympathy mood and look forward to having a wonderful celebration. Workaholic’s in the house! 25th Dec is the day to shut down the systems. Those 4 hours of conference calls…ahhhhh, take it easy this time okay because work never ends.

Give yourself a break because you’ve earned it: 12 months in a year, 365 days in a year ‘no be beans’.

We have approximately 15 days off for Christmas break, although for some it could range from 17-20, so many people are already counting down the days. If you’re anxious for the holidays to come already! and you are wondering how to make the most out of it, here are 3 ideas to enable you to have a fantastic holiday.

1. Your first option for unwinding this Christmas should be Rest.! Most people are overwhelmed because they don’t get enough time to rest and take a break. Resting entails much more than just sleeping. Of course, getting enough sleep will refresh your mind and brighten your face, but it can't always be sleep and sleep for you, even if you get the chance to, there are other things you can do with your free time this holiday. Relax! Now, this section ehh! Have you ever imagined yourself on a beautiful island at a beach, in your bikinis or swimming trunks, lying down with your sunglasses, looking up at the sky, listening to the birds chirping, and appreciating life's beautiful nature? ?That would be a wonderful experience but please, if you can’t afford to go to the beach you could try other options such as watching movies! humour and comedy movies. Comedy movies have a way of bringing laughter as well as less suspense, especially when you’re not watching alone also, going to movies with a friend or spouse should also be on your list this Season.
2. Another excellent option to consider is to read books. If you can go 30 days without reading a page or chapter in a book, please wake up to the reality that reading books is a lifestyle that will not only spark your imagination but will also expose you to a lot. You can read a variety of books depending on your mood or interests, such as romance, motivational, crime, fantasy, classic, fantasy, historical books, and so on. Every genre of books has a lesson to teach or a message to convey especially motivational books that will educate you on taking better steps, therefore, get into a bookstore and purchase 2-3 books that will be of good use to you or better still visit free book sites that make e-books available for download or site-reading.
3. This Christmas is not for 24 hours sit at home, please Dulling is not allowed. Visit beautiful places and go window shopping even if you don't have money to buy accessories. Call a friend, hang out, and go out for ice cream. Visit a long-lost friend, go to the zoo, and see the animals, but don't forget to buy bananas for the monkeys!! Taking a walk with or without someone will be extremely beneficial; discover streets you were unaware existed. And, yes, please take mama out; our mothers are so focused on saving money for us that they forget to give themselves a good treat.

Next year is going to be a good one. As you remain in the merry spirit of Xmas, do not forget to watch your movement wisely by using a safe mode of transportation. Be watchful, be careful!
