It’s a new year and I am in
the reflective mode. My mind has been on thanksgiving /stock taking mode since
the beginning of December 2014 till date.
Pause …………..
2014 was such an eventful
year. Negatives, positives, the usual and in short victories and testimonies.
Some of the testimonies are:
Journey mercies on the
Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Abeokuta and even protection during the air travels
throughout the year for myself, wife and our family members. On this same death
traps called road, I have seen and heard about lives lost but God was gracious
enough to protect and keep us. The air flights nko, planes missing and crashed,
in all God was good and he kept us.
Preservation of my life, my
wife (big smile). Yes you heard me right, my wife - another testimony that
happened within the year. I got married to an Angel (winks).
Various celebrations in the
family – weddings, expansions, promotions, transformations, job change,
miracles unexplainable etc.
I am also very grateful for
the achievements as well as the failures of 2014. Indeed 2014 was a special
year.
Pause …………..
I remember making some
resolutions last year. I did well with them though but this year I have chosen
to do it differently. I have only one resolution. I am sure you are wondering
whether I would say things such as: I would stop drinking, I would go to more
parties this year, I would make more money, etc .
Pause …………..
I have realized the truth
about resolutions especially when it is a long list. You end up not achieving them.
My resolution for 2015 is therefore simply put to be HAPPY everyday no matter
what life throws at me.
Now to the cheeky part, to
be happy I have to be in good health, family life has to be on point, my
spiritual standing needs to be better, need to make more money etc …..Am sure
you can now see that the bottom line of the various resolutions made is to be happy.
This is exactly what I am going to do.
To do this I am undergoing
goal setting which must be measurable and would ENSURE ALL THROUGH THIS YEAR I
DAILY COUNT MY BLESSINGS and REMAIN HAPPY.
I implore you to do same.
I didn’t intend to make this
a long article because I just wanted to WISH EVERYONE A HAPPY NEW YEAR which
has come to give us a fresh hope for a brighter future.
Pause ………….. Chei ….. My mind
and it’s over working nature.
Below are my wishes for the
New Year:
·
May all our
dreams turn into reality and all our efforts turn into great achievements.
·
May the good
times live on in our memories and may we learn lessons from the troubling
times that will make us stronger and better than ever.
·
May the year
2015 be like a blank book that is waiting for our involvement to fill up its
365 pages with all the colors under the sun making it a vibrant addition to our
life.
·
May the New Year
2015 give us loads of reasons to celebrate and have wonderful days that are
filled with laughter and fun.
Happy New Year
