TRAVELLING GIVES ME EXTRA JOY
Travelling is one of my best hobbies. I can't really tell why I love to travel a lot. But sincerely I can give up food, clothes and other things for the sake of travelling. Infact you don't want to make me choose between travelling and doing other things because I will definitely choose travelling and let go of other things. That is how much I love travelling.
I have always had people say things like - travelling is part of education, but for me travelling completes me. Hahaha 😂. Is not just part of education for me, but is one of the things that makes me very very happy in life.
MY MOST RECENT TRAVEL EXPERIENCE
I travel out of my city almost every weekend for one or two preaching engagement. But there is this particular travelling last month that was just for me to go out and relax a little bit. In life I believe that once in a while we need to go to somewhere outside town or city just to relax with either families or friends. I figured out last month that a lot was going on in my life and I really want to be alone because I need to clear my head. So, I thought of where to go to and relax. I couldn't find anywhere to go to in my city and at that time I started wishing I have a building somewhere near a beach or something were no one knows about it that I can just go and be alone for a whole week. Just watching movies, eating good food and relaxing all by myself. Unfortunately I don't have a building near any beach. But I later figured out somewhere outside my city where I could go and be alone. Though not my own house. I also decided to take the owner of the house by surprise. I traveled by faith that I was going to meet the person at home. And I was lucky because the person was right at home when I got there. It was the city or Makurdi in Benue state that I went to. I spent up to three days away from home and I made sure that no one calls my phone to disturb me about anything that is not moving well at home. I only put my phone on when I want to ask after my people at home and after that I switched it off again. That was a very good one for me because it gave me good time for resting.
HOW RECENT WAS IT?
This happened about a month ago and is still very fresh in my mind because I really love that journey. It was so refreshing that I wished that every month I will have such opportunity. Hahaha 😂. This is a big deal because I know is not possible to have it every month. But I will try to make it more often.
NEXT TIME I PLAN TO TRAVEL OUT.
Years back I thought that when my children have all grown up and are living separately from my husband and myself that I will have all the time in the world to move around anyhow that I want. But now I know better. I now realize that I can't even travel when I want because of my husband and the household. When the kids were there I can move out of the house for two or three days because I know that they can cook and serve my husband. Hmmm! Now I realize that I have to do all of that all by myself. No one is there for me again. I only have my last born at home writing his WAEC. Sometimes it feels like he should not even be at home because football will not allow him notice that he needs to help at home. He is always out there playing football. In fact he can let go of food because of football. My next major journey out of the house will be in the month of August.
THINGS I HOPE TO DO IN THAT TRIP
The journey will be to attend the wedding of my aunt's son's wedding. This wedding is what I have been looking up to and at last it has been fixed for the month of August in the city of Abuja close to my state. I really don't want to miss that wedding for anything.
