What's something that always makes you smile?

The thing that always makes me smile is helping others in difficult situations, especially for those who do not have the opportunity to assist themselves. Smiling is a form of happiness that improves our mental health, which helps us stay in a stable situation.

Another thing that also keeps me smiling is removing harmful objects from the road that can cause injuries to us. Whenever I do this, I always feel good that I have saved someone from these dangerous objects. I will just keep on smiling that God uses me to assist human beings like me so that they can be in a better position.

What's your favorite way to spend a day off?

When there's no work, I find time to rest my brain because all work and no play makes a person dull. Rest is important in this situation because it helps me fully recover from stress as well as recharge myself to get better. Sometimes I also spend time with my loved ones in a good place in order to have meaningful conversations about our future. Doing this promotes our sense of belonging.

Additionally, I also use to spend my day off is to engage in productive activities in order to achieve my aims and objectives. Anytime I am free, I visit my farm to see how significant the progress is and also do some farm activities during the week whenever I am less busy.

Is there any skill you'd love to learn and why?

The skill I would like to learn is graphic design. Learning this amazing skill will generate extra income for me so that I can solve some personal problems. Since the election is on the way in my country, I may be able to connect with the politicians in my state to help them design some posters that will serve as awareness.

Graphic design conveys a lot of information through images as well as problem-solving skills for any organization to grow. I have a passion for it because it provides employment opportunities for those who do not have anything to do at the moment. If I learn graphic design, I will be able to design logos for any organization that will promote their brand to reach clients.

What's that something you're grateful for and why?

I am grateful to Almighty Allah for waking me up today. Some people who slept last night have not woken up, but I thank Almighty Allah for sparing my life and others too. I look healthy, without any sickness, and I can move from one place to another without using a walking stick at my young age.

The strength and energy God gave me help me support my family by bringing food to their table as well as assisting them financially during difficult periods. Seeing my family without anyone falling sick is something I am grateful for, as well as easily having money at the right time to solve some challenges we may face in our daily lives. I thank Almighty Allah for the gift of life, and I pray that He has mercy on us.

What's the favorite memory you have of yourself?

The best memory of myself is during the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in the northern part of the country. I really enjoyed my stay, eating good meals and meeting new people. In fact, we still chat up till today; they are wonderful people one can associate with. These beautiful memories are something I cannot quickly forget. Anytime I remember them, I just laugh at myself. There was a time I would just watch their local matches; it was an interesting game that created happiness for each and every one of us.

Those experiences are still in my mind because they are useful to me whenever I face a similar issue, so I may be able to tackle them with past experience.

Conclusion

We must love ourselves more than anything by having enough rest, eating good meal and engage in meaningful conversations with our family, or help them with necessary housework. Although this may not be all the time, it is perfectly fine whenever you do not have anything to do in that moment.
