One question that's always hard for me to answer is, “What's your favorite…..”. Just imagine someone asking me, “What's your favorite food?” Ohh my goodness!! The only answer I will always give is that I have none. If you may ask why, the answer is simple. I love food so much that my parents often lock up the kitchen whenever they want to leave the house, lol. I have many food types that I love so much, so separating one to call it my favorite is always difficult for me.
I decided to start with my favorite food before talking about my favorite person because both of them always keep me hanging on the fence. For me, I would say my favorite person is my sister, my second sister to be precise because I have two beautiful sisters. If I were given an opportunity to have two favorite persons at once, I would say the second is my Mom.
Well, I chose my sister due to some special reasons. To be very specific about the reasons, I would say the most tangible reason I chose my sister as my favorite person is because she loves to give me money. She sends me money even when I don't ask for it. That doesn't mean she is very rich, but I know she has this sisterly love for me and she knows that as a student I am, I would have some needs I may not be able to ask my parents for.
Yesterday was her birthday. I am very happy for her but sad with myself because I have nothing of great value to give her as my gift other than just a message full of good birthday wishes and prayers. Though she appreciated that, I should have gone further to do things to make her happy.
I had already discussed the first reason why my sister is my favorite person, now let me table the second. Back then when I was in high school, I had friends who came from wealthy families and some had swimming pools at home. After school, my friends and I(boys) and some “social” girls throng to my friends’ houses to swim as long as we want. We often go swimming at most twice a week.
The first day I went to swim with friends, I got carried away and I forgot that it was already late. When I returned home, my parents were very mad at me and asked me where I went. Guess who saved me that day. My sister lied just to save me. She “cooked” a very sweet and “interesting-to-the-ear” lie just to convince my parents. Since that day, I knew she could do anything for me.
On many difficult occasions where I have issues with parents or even financial issues(lack of pocket money), my sister often turned up for me.
If I'm given a second choice, I would surely go for my mom. The best mom in the world.
I remember one night a snake sneaked into my room. I was in a very deep sleep dreaming of times I used to play with kites as a kid, I didn't know a snake was by my bed. Thank goodness for mom who often checks up on me whenever I'm in bed.
So as she came in to check on and she turned the light on, she saw the snake and as a wise and bold woman, she didn't scream to wake me or trigger the snake to action.
She gently called on Dad to come down. Dad came in and killed the snake. It was after the snake was killed that I woke up due to the sound of the hits on the snake.
Mom just like my sister has always been there for me. I love everyone in my family but for the sake of this contest, I have to make one my favorite.
Finally before I conclude, I decided to spend some minutes out of my comfort zone this evening by embarking on a cleaning activity along my street.
Here are the photos of my cleaning activity for today:
To make a complete cleaning activity, I made sure the waste was properly disposed of in my disposal container.
Thanks for stopping by friends.
A great appreciation to all those who recognize my cleaning activities, #cleanplanet, #solarisfuture and everyone.
All the images are mine.
