WATCH OUT FOR ‘APRIL HAPPINESS/SMILING CHALLENGE’



Hello friends, how was your weekend? Mine was stressful and at the same time exciting. The events in the country these days have led to some personal damages. Almost everybody is angry and therefore cannot even afford to smile. Federal workers and state workers are not left out as they are the major victim of whatever change is said to be going on in the country. Some days ago I came to discover that this unhappy/anger bug has really spread even to some special people who cannot do but smile and infect people around them with their smiles. The smiles suddenly disappeared and what is left on their face is wrinkles maybe from excess thinking, discouragement or anger. 

It didn’t occur to me at first that I was also getting infected by this bug until somebody called my attention to it. I just noticed some lively parts of me were no longer active and I was thinking it would pass with time. I no longer smile like I used to. People no longer say ‘Joy, you are so funny. Thanks for making my day’. I also discovered that some habits were leaving me; habits that are really essential for my personal growth and development. I now find what I used to enjoy, boring. And I thought to myself, I’m not the only one in this mess, there are a lot of people out there like me. So what can I do to help myself and others?

After surfing the net for clues for some hours, I stumbled on one of my favourite blogs and I saw this Happiness Challenge. It was really amazing so I decide to do something like that on my blog. So watch out for the ‘APRIL SMILING/HAPPINESS CHALLENGE’ which will be coming up in April on www.cianajoyinspires.com. I tell you, it will be amazing, it will be fun, and I promised that whether you like it or not, if you stick and follow through the whole challenge, you will thank me at the end of the month *winks*.

 Note: gifts will be given to the most consistent participants.
Trust me; it will be worth your time and interest.
Great week ahead.

POEM: I’M ME. I’M NOT BORN TO IMPRESS OTHERS

You may not like me but that’s okay because that’s me and how I will stay So don’t expect that I’ll one day change for you. I’m only me so what you think of me doesn’t matter The only person I’m oblige to please is God my creator I may be weird and be a talkative, but it shouldn’t bother you It is who I’m and how I’m created so no need to impress you I do what I love and love what I do. Your opinion isn’t needed You either accept me the way I’m or excuse me and go your way After all I wasn’t born to impress anyone but myself and God.   I’m only me so I don’t care about Criticisers or critics I’m happy to be me.

A MUST READ: 13 AMAZING LOVE LESSONS

It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return but what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to tell the person how you feel. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right ones so that     when we finally meet the right person we will know how to be grateful for that gift. Love is when you take away the feelings; passion and romance of a relationship and find out you still care for that person. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you and only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be but you just have to let go. When the door of happiness closes another one opens but often time we look so long at the closed door that we don’t see the one which has been open for us. The best kind of friends is the kind you can just be with; never say a word and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you’ve ever had. It is true that we don’t know what ...
