NOW TO ANSWER JENNY’S QUESTIONS

1. How long have you been blogging for and why did you start?

I started blogging in July this year, so almost 3 months. Well I thought I’d get back to writing and make use of my God given talent while addressing and expressing my opinion on issues. It wasn’t part of my self discovery journey per se but now anything I learn in that journey I am able to share on here and connect with people through it. It’s been amazing.

2. What makes a blog article worth sticking around for— one you truly enjoy reading?

The beauty and love within the content. Seeing how a mom talks about her baby with so much love, or one making fun of their partners, all in genuine love. I go like, awwwww😍😍🥰 throughout my reading.

3. What is your favorite thing about Fall?

We don’t experience Fall in our side of the globe, we have the wet and dry seasons. I love the rains and a cool weather so guess I’d love Fall for those reasons too.

4. What is your go-to drink?
Don’t have one, not a fun of drinks or sweet things.

5. What favorite treat really hits the sweet spot for you?

So like mentioned above, I don’t like sweets or snacks really. I prefer real heavy foods with lots and lots of pepper and salt. Pizza will be a perfect treat though.

6. Tell me about a favorite date or share a great date night idea.

So my ex and I planned to go on a train ride as a date. We’d both never been on trains and the train routes are not in areas we are familiar with. The trains are not modern and usually carries market women with their wares. We’d thought it’d be really cool to have our first rides together and watch the new scenery outside it. Unfortunately we never got to do it but I still think it’s a cool date idea, if a little bit corny.

7. Do you have a favorite family tradition?

When I was younger, we used to return to our hometown the Monday before the Homowo traditional festival which my people(Ga) celebrate. We  did this every year, and whenever we got home there’d be people outside waiting to welcome us with shouts of Ju bii oo, Ju bii oo, meaning Monday arrivals. Well no one cares about that anymore now lol.

8. What book(s) are you reading right now?

The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus Christ, A New Earth and A Course in Miracles. These books have been of great help to me in my spirituality journey. The principles within these books I believe is what we all really need.

9. What one piece of advice would you give your younger self?

To be present always. I learned this lesson just some months ago and the experience has been just amazing. I suggest The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle to anyone interested.

10. Do you have a secret or hidden talent?

As a kid I drew pretty well. Definitely not something to become an artist with but sometimes I wonder if that’s not a talent I could explore.

11. What is one way you served or blessed someone else recently?

This is the most interesting question on here for me. I’ve been conscious more recently to be helpful and to be of service to others. But can’t really think of anything I could count as an answer here. I agreed to help my Dad learn how to use a computer, does that count?
