Great Tips On How To Enjoy The Holidays.

-

It's the holiday season and you'll know its really exciting and its so easy to be caught up in all the busy schedules. Office parties, kids school parties, family get togethers, Christmas shows etc. It can be so overwhelming that we may actually not enjoy the holiday. So here are my 5 thoughtfully organized tips in no particular order on how to enjoy the holiday.





♧ Be intentionally thankful
Being alive isn't just enough to be grateful however, recognizing family and friends around is another reason to be grateful.  I like to see intentional gratitude as something to be harnessed as that breeds happiness and joy in our lives. So make sure to be intentionally grateful for every detail around you.




♧ Prioritize your parties
You must not attend every party. Actually be at parties you would really have a great time at and not because you are supposed to. Its also nice to have some rest.


♧ Put your phones away.
Everyone is almost always on their phones even while having a great family time. So to truly enjoy the holidays, learn to put your phones away and have meaningful conversations with people actually present.


♧ Feel free to indulge.
After all its the holiday and you can indulge (That's if you've been a good girl/boy).





♧ Make New Friend/ Socialize
Its no better time to make new friends than the holiday season. Its actually fun having to meet new friends and enjoying amazing conversations.

5 Ways To Get Out Of A BAD Mood

-
Image
We sometimes get into a really bad mood either after having a conversation that didn’t end well, a work meeting that ended on a sour note, a bad hair or dress day or even having a bad mood that you have no clue at the moment as to why you feel so moody or sad.  These feelings can longer and end up ruining the whole day and disrupting a great opportunity for us to live this wonderful life. After the words “Once today goes by, you can NEVER get it back” sank deep into my consciousness and even my sub-consciousness, I take the most of each day and try to enjoy this life.  So here are my 5 ways to snap out  of a bad mode quickly.  1) Acknowledge the reason that put you in a bad mood. Now this is not the time to address it. It’s just for you to recognize that you are in a bad mood and what is causing it.  2) Change environment. Stepping away from the surrounding or change of scenery is the next best step to take if you want to get out of a bad mood. Remaining at the same place can cause you

The War Within

The brown rusty leaves rolled over her legs as she sat helpless on the grass. The park was sparsely populated which made it very easy to stay unnoticed. Lifting her head, struggling to see through the heavy clog of tears welling up in her eyes. The day was getting dark, darkness has become her place of solace. She kept a steady gaze at the kids running freely, playing catch while she battled with the decision of either staying back or going home. Home? That house didn’t feel like home and it hasn’t felt like home in a long while. The mind drifted to when she was a child with little or nothing contending for space or attention in her head except for love and the ‘’can do spirit’’, which spurred her to fly without wings and run without shoes to distances that were unimaginable. She lived as free as the wind and that was the bliss of childhood which she fought to get rid of and step into adult shoes. Since stepping into those overly talked about shoes, its been filled with

THE UNKNOWN CALL

-

I twisted to critically appraise my curves in the tall glass one last time. I had not watched television or gone on a proper date for over three months, not since work had become so demanding. Part of me still aggrandized the image of lying in bed, snacking on a good pan pizza and finally sleeping off on some random Netflix movies. I twitched the pleat on the skirt and adjusted the waist line. Needless to say, I looked good and the mental picture stuck. The buzzing of my phone interrupted my thoughts. My mind quickly raced to my date. His surname was yet to stick and so was my need to get seriously involved with another man. The caller was unknown and on sliding the green icon on the screen, his voice came live. ‘’Miss jones’’? Yes, speaking” ‘’I’m guessing you know miss Edith Uwaoma’’? Yes, I do, but who is on the line’’? The voice on the other end of the line was far from familiar. He said evasively, ‘’Please make your way to the hosp
