Finding Pleasure In Attending Events

Often times, i have admired going to events but as a young teenager years back, i was restricted from attending events only if it was that of my family's. I didnt have much free hand to even go to a friend's birthday party or any celebration of any kind. It has lasted for some while, not until my maternal uncle asked my mother to release us to come for his traditional marriage. I didn't have phone, neither did my sister do, what we did was just to take picture of our uniform together then saved it in her Google. It was about a year later that she discovered this picture and sent it to us.

Wow!!! guess what!. gradually my mother began allowing us to go to events and she even made a get way for my younger siblings to also follow us along, aside from far distance events which they weren't able to attend because they will need a close care. This now became like a free ticket given to us to explore too manypatterns on how people run theirs.

It happened to be that the church I attended before had a lady who was about to get her martial life set. Due to our closeness and relationship, she choose I and my elder sister to be her Aseobi (flower girl) and i was so happy because i loved attending events, to catch fun and have pleasure exploring a lot of things i didn't know before.

The traditional wedding of this pur sister in church was held in her paternal home which is located at Anambra state, the eastern part of Nigeria. It was really a big day for her, even at a point, she was at doubt her traditional wedding will hold. That was because her junior sister was beginning to blame her for fixing her day when the community of her hometown was on fire with a lot of terrorist disturbance. But finally, as we prayed to God, the gun shots we were hearing subsided and everywhere went cool.

All glory belong to Jesus for he made her smile again as God disappointed the makeup artist who wanted to put the lady into shame. I was really happy, she was smiling because the temptation that surrounded her was so much and heavy. As being the first born to wed, it was quite hectic on her but then had to manage to brighten up her day. I washed how she danced with joy along with her husband. Her name "Joy" really worked for her that day.
