Good day to you all my tutors and learners here on Hive.
The holiday is indeed fast approaching.
But why am I seeing the other way around? Why do I keep seeing everything happening so fast? Just like yesterday when we were about to welcome the year 2023. And poof! 2023 came in, then this same poof! again and we got the year running to an end again. Then the final poof! We are already in December saying goodbye to the year.
Everything just keeps running at a faster pace. And this kept me wondering. Even if I am given a thousand days for holiday, as much as a day is counted out then the rest is over. So most of the time I just don't get freaked out by any holidays that approach me.
Even when it's time to celebrate Salah, I am not always bothered or concerned by what to wear, or maybe even how I would look on that day because I realized that the day would also come and go like every other day. What matters is the fact that I am a living witness of the day.
Life goes on…
If I were to make plans for any upcoming holiday with my present life situation I would say that I don't have any reasonable plans for myself, like outings, going on dates, vacations to tourist attractions, visiting states and places around me. I don't have any plans for this. And I have my reason for this.
My profession as an Agriculturist practicing aquaculture is not giving me the chance and freedom to even make plans for myself. There is this saying among farmers, “There is no weekend for farmers” If there is no weekend then how much do you even expect a livestock farmer to have time for holidays? But despite the hurdles and hustle. We still squeeze out time for ourselves.
So for this December and Early January, I don't have much to do. My daily life would just keep revolving around the same cycle and this is doing what I feel is important to my existence.
I would remain indoors except for times I needed to check on the farm when my attention was needed, indoor would have me online here on hive as much as I could, and then I would also read and watch some important updates on my social app.
I am with my family at the moment, my parents and siblings. I am also taking this vacation period as an opportunity to share memorable moments with them. Since everyone would be around by then. Those moments remain in our memories and never fade.
Lastly, I am also taking this vacation period as an advantage to reminisce on past mistakes, figure out my present way of life, and think of a better future for myself.
This is my response to the prompt for week 91 edition 3 on the hive learners community and the topic to be discussed is PLANS FOR THE HOLIDAY.
