Don't Postpone Your Joy. Don't Postpone Living' By Enwongo C. Cleopas



Recently, I bade farewell to my law firm. They gave me my best two years of law practice and I will miss working there. I have had to process so much uncertainty and new beginnings in my life. I've also had to process a score line of illnesses and especially death of family and friends and frustrations too. I've had to sit with myself and access things while also trying not to get drowned by them.

Truthfully it's been one hell of a year ending. But in the midst of these changes, uncertainties and events, I have found a strength to live life to the fullest and to honour God with my life and days and I've also had an abundance of peace and joy that I can't explain the source.

I don't have all my questions answered or sorted but I have been overwhelmed with feelings of gratitude and appreciation for this one life, this second chance, this gift of a new beginning that I have been given.

On my way back from Port Harcourt yesterday, I kept telling God, "if I'm closer to my grave, abeg end me now don't give me high hopes".😒😂 Lol. Nothing happened. God sure laughs at me. But sha I'm still here and this is me telling you that my joy knows no bound in seeing another day; being given another chance to live. I am excited about life and dreams and loved ones and friends like you all on this platform.

I am not waiting for 2018 to live the life I want to. I'm not going to postpone my joy, my dreams and my life. I'm not putting it on a hold. I may just be gone tomorrow. Gone! But for these seconds I'm given, I am embracing it wholeheartedly. It is not perfect but as long as there's life, there's hope.

Today, I had a presentation at the #DigiClanFacebookDevC event on the topic, 'using the art of Storytelling to engage your audience'. It was an amazing event, one I desperately want a repeat. It was so much fun sharing and learning and meeting friends and very creative people. More pictures loading soon.

Hope your Saturday was beautiful? Much love everyone.
