CHRISTMAS FOR US THEN AND NOW...
Have you ever been nostalgic about Christmas celebrations during your younger days? You would agree it is more fun, more real and more celebratory unlike now that we are grown and Christmas sometimes passes almost like a normal day would.
Is Christmas only a celebration meant for kids?
¿
Christmas is meant to be a season set aside to draw closer to society. One separated to build a community of love, show some care to everyone around you, take a break from daily rigorous lifestyles and spread laughter.
These thoughts brings me back to highlighting Christmas for me in two different phases of my life.....
CHRISTMAS FOR ME AS A CHILD....
As a child, i might forget other dates and seasons but christmas seasons are stuck to my head like my life depended on its accuracy.
My life truly depended on it!
I get to wear my brand new Christmas gowns which mum carefully picked out for this occasion. ✔✔
I wouldn't ignore the fact that I make pretty hairs for Xmas sake. ✔✔
Christmas special delicacies too were my favorites.✔✔
It is quite common in Nigeria settings to cook lots of chicken to mark Christmas celebration in homes. As a child, I was entitled to eating 2-3 pieces of chunky chicken because it was Christmas as opposed to the one-piece-a-meal or no meat at all on a normal time.
One thing I loved most as a kid during Christmas was the COMMUNAL CHILDREN VISITATION to other homes.
For this, 6-7 kids of different or same parents gather to visit houses in a bid to receive different sorts of gifts. Sometimes we would be served meals, candies, and mostly monetary gifts. Most Africans can relate to this type of Christmas celebration style. All in all, we do nothing but RECEIVE!
CHRISTMAS FOR ME AS A GROWN......
To be more honest, since I have passed the bane of teenage, I couldn't remember when last I took Christmas as a big deal. Rather than preparing family Christmas meals to connote a celebration ongoing, it was nothing other than normal periods or days for me.
Maybe I was past receiving but I never thought to GIVE either!
I never thought I would think to give until I joined STEEMIT!!
With my membership on this platform, I have embraced nobility and civility. I have RECEIVED when I was a kid during Xmas, now as an adult, it is time to GIVEBACK to kids. I can proudly think in this manner now!
STEEMIT has made a new ME!!!!!

WHY STEEMIT GIVEBACK TO CHILDREN?
One of the obvious reasons might be because I received as a kid and thought to reciprocate! Correct to some extent ✔
It is much more than that for me.
Steemit has infused every steemian with a sense of purpose and reasoning.
I saw beyond the present and envisioned a future where this kids run the steem block chain even as from today! After all, children are the future of today! I have decided to inculcate the spirit of STEEMIT in these children so as to give them a basic knowledge of the cryptic world. Is it called catching them young?
Even children have talents.
Some more talented than adults. They draw, they paint, most of them have amazing voices for singing and I know of a few other kids who tried tie and dye successfully.
We can equally give children a space in the steem world. Kids are adorable and should be given a chance.
I plan to introduce a steemit children account soon enough. Sharing love is equivalent to promoting STEEMIT. In more than one way, I think the real Christmas is steem.
WHERE DID THE INSPIRATION COME?
I have seen many people here organize different steemit meetup this festive season of love to further share the good word about steemit and celebrate with fellow steemians . One of such events is the STEEMUP DELTA. It was enough motivation for me.
Much more than that, STEEMIT has made this year a much more pleasant one for me. It has given bountifully to me. It is time to reciprocate the good deeds. If we are members of a platform and don't represent its goals, we are as good as a nonparticipant!
I am an incubator. I nurture to growth. When fully independent and can scale successfully, I give back!
I hope everything turns out to be a success like I wish it to be.
There are a lot cost budgeted for this Children's Christmas events. Some of which includes:
• STEEMIT crested polo for children
• Balloons and party hats
• Eatables and drinkable for children
• Gifts wrappers and presents, lastly
• The knowledge of STEEMIT!
I would do as much as update you daily on my STEEMIT CHILDREN XMAS GIVEAWAY processes.
Thanks for reading through!!!
I wish you a happy Xmas in advance and a prosperous NEW YEAR!
NB: If you wish to tap into this mission of sharing love through GIVEBACKS to these adorable children (future of the steem blockchain), I am open to accepting contributions and donations. You could send in eatables for these kids if you so wish. They would love and appreciate it!
Don't forget to keep spreading love in this season!!!!
