Hello everyone.
I am very excited to be back on this challenge. You know, it didn’t happen last year because I wasn’t in the best position to write. I felt unpleasant about it but the situation was beyond my control .
How are you? I mean, how really are you? How has the year been? What has been happening with you? How have you been winging it?
This year, we will be having different people with us sharing their happiness tips and letting us into their worlds. This is something that means so much to me because I carefully selected these people and I’m really thankful that they agreed to do this with me.
Today, I want us to reflect on the year so far. What are the great things that have happened to you? What are the positive things that have come your way? What are the things that have put a smile on your face? What do you remember as a occurrence this year that you begging to giggle and relax? In summary, can we count our blessings this year?
Oh, I know the other things have happened too. I know that it’s not been all rosy. Life isn’t all rosy anyway. But today, we aren’t looking at those, we are only counting our blessings and naming them.
You know how I do, I’ll go first.
- This year I had my baby.
-
This year Allah saved me through a surgery to have my baby. I had my baby.
-
This year, I went through labour for twenty four hours, got induced and went through the worst pain ever, then I had my baby.
-
This year, I carried my pregnancy to term, the baby was really big and I had to have a surgery to have her. I had my baby.
I can go on and on, but you already know the summary. I had a baby and it is the best thing that has happened to me in my life. I am happy, I am pleased. I am glad. Life is beautiful. Allah has been merciful on me and mine. I am glad!
- I had a second edition of my meet and Greet in Abuja. It was amazing!
-
I had a third edition of My Meet and greet which happened in Ibadan for the second time and it was awesome!
I actually can say more but let me be modestššš.
Always remember: Don’t let anyone define happiness for you. Don’t let anyone undermine what makes you happy. Find your happy, and go for it!
Oya, tell me your positive stories. I’m eager to hear!
I’ll be back. OBA.

This year has been so amazing on this side too. I adopt your achievements so far this year as mine, and the lows too. The highs have surpassed and we are most grateful to almighty Allah for the good times.
I am especially very glad and excited that the “November Happiness Challenge ” is back and better, because somehow, I was a principal contributor to why it didn’t happen last year š. Thankfully, it ended in praises. Alhamdulilah. I look forward to reading from the various contributors and your amazing self.

Amazing year. Canāt be thankful enough for His mercies and blessings. Carried my baby for 41 weeks and went through labor after getting induced for 48 hours. Had my beautiful blessing on Motherās Day this year and since sheās come into our lives, itās been from one blessing to the another. Our prayers were answered even when it seemed unlikely. I canāt be more thankful for everything Heās done for me and my family. Life is not perfect but with her in it, itās everything so Alhamdulillah.
This made me smile deeply. Iām so happy for you and yours, sis. May goodness never depart from your home ā¤ļø

It will InshaAllah take place by December and you are all invited.
