SELL LOVE IS THE MAJOR MEDICATION TO LIVE A LONG LIFE.

Hello friends, welcome back again this week. It is indeed a great thing for us to see another week again.

This week we have as usual a special topic from the hive learners community contest. Infact, for me, I feel that this is one of the best topic I have ever seen or heard here. Those that live close to me know me for one thing: life is very short and should not be spent half way before one realizes that there is no more time left. I know for sure that I have been through hard times in this my small year of journey here on earth, but believe me when I say that I don't joke with myself. I may let go every thing just to please myself. Well I haven't been like this before, but it just done on me that I am getting older and I can't get all the chance that I need in the future to pamper myself as I so wish. So, the best thing to do is to do what I can do now to take care of myself.

Sometimes I do take out time to relax and take whatever I want to take just to make myself happy. So, for me, self love is a normal thing, and I do encourage some of my friends to do same. But some of them think that I am doing it because my children are grown up and I don't have much work to do, but no, that is not the reason. My reason is because life is too short to live it only to take care of others and forget myself. My kids do call me " mama enjoyment" hahaha 😄. Any day I want to eat anything and I know that I can't afford it for every one in the family. Once I buy it I get straight to my room and eat it alone. So my children already know me with that. But when I want to do it for everyone, I will do it especially when the money is there.

For the sake of this topic that says - self love. I will love to share something special that I did on the day of Christmas. The last Christmas was a special one for us in the family because I decided that it should be special.

You know usually, there will be many visitors on that special day. But I decided not to receive any visitor, but I took my family out and it was even a surprise for all of them. I never told them that I was going to take them out. I kept it a surprise because my husband is not the social type. If you bring anything like that up, he will begin to calculate how much it will cost and will end up discouraging it. So I made it a surprise. At first I wanted to go alone, just to have a special time for myself, but on the other hand, I also considered My children. I thought of how it will be if I go out and enjoyed myself and they are all left at home doing nothing. So I decided to go with them. When oga heard of it, he just said " do you know how much it will cost you to take every one out on a day like this?" I just said, don't worry about it, I will take care of it. The whole family was happy when we finally went out to a eatery and bought all that they requested for. I was happy to, because is not just enough to toil all through the year without having to rest and pamper yourself. It became the talk of the town for my children that day and I also felt that we all need it in the family just to Cool off.

Aside that particular one that I took the whole family out, it has become my life style to hide myself once in a while and enjoy a little. Infact, sometimes even when I don't have money, I will live the house without telling anyone where I am going to, go to my friend's house, sleep like a baby and come back stronger to face the family's responsibilities again.

On a final note, I want to say that it is very good for one to take very good care of his /herself because life is too short. Don't allow your business to carry you away that you don't even have time for your self.
