Contest; ... In that Moment
Good day friends.. How are you doing? Am sure you've been good.. I want to specially thank @sahmie for organizing this wonderful contest for us and am so glad to participate in it. Today, I will share with you about those great and special moments I have had. You will love this post, just keep on reading.
What's the most recent "moment" that made you feel truly alive?
I have had tons of moment that made feel alive, but there's this certain moment I can never forget in a lifetime. As you all know, am a fashion designer and I have too much love and passion for fashion. I learnt everything about fashion for almost two years, and I was in need of a sewing machine of my own. This is because I have started to have my customers and I didn't want to rely on using my boss's machine all the time. So, last year November, I randomly chatted my uncle who stays at Lagos and requested for a sewing machine.
He told me that he had a project he's handling and it won't be possible. I loose hope because that my uncle has been of great help to me since day 1. So, I forgot everything about getting a sewing machine, because my little savings couldn't buy it. But, little did I know that my uncle had greater plans for me and decided to surprise me. During December last year, he came back for Christmas and lo and behold, he came with a brand new sewing machine and handed it over to me.
My joy knew no bounds because I felt alive at that moment. Not only that he got me a machine, he also got me a power bank and headphones. At that moment, I finally understood that I have yet to experience the most beautiful moments that life had for me. I’ve always thought that life was always about suffering and pain. That was the first time when I knew and understood what it felt like to be truly alive.

What's a moment you wish you could relive?
Life comes with struggles, temptations, pain, joy, happiness, etc. most times, we will wish for joy and good things to come, but rather turns out bad. There's this moment I would love to relive if possible. This moment was when my late sister gave up. She said a lot of things before she died which actually came to pass. I just I had the power to relive that moment and possibly make her come back to life.
If you could freeze time for just one moment, what would it be?alive?
Freezing time would be a chance to savor life's simple pleasures, learn, explore, and strengthen the connections that matter most to me. If I could possibly freeze time for a moment, first and foremost, will use that time achieve my goals in life and make sure to use it wisely. I would take the opportunity to catch up on all good things of life, explore places I've never been. On a more serious note, I'd use this time to learn new skills, either it's picking up a musical instrument or mastering a foreign language, freezing time would provide the uninterrupted focus I need to truly excel. And of course, I will spend my frozen time with my loved ones by relaxation and taking a quiet moment to enjoy a cup of coffee or just watching the world in stillness.
What's a moment that made you realize how much someone loves you?alive?
When someone loves you, they create time for you and gives you words of assurance that everything is gonna be fine. As for me, I have had a lot of experience of love. But there's this moment that I can't forget in a jiffy. This was when my sister showed up for me when I needed a phone urgently. During that time, she was actually using a small phone due to her phone was stolen. At that time, I needed a phone too in order to perform some task. I just talked to her about it and she was like I shouldn't worry about it.
The next day, she went to work and came back home with a brand new Infinix spark 10 phone and gave it to me. i was so shocked because I didn't expected the phone that soon. I was like she should use it and give me the small phone since she doesn't have an android phone. But she insisted I take the phone, that she will sort her own out. That single action she portrayed to me shows how much she loves and cares about me. At that moment, I realize how much she loves me and that's why i don't joke with her.😁
