Each and every year since 2004 with the exception of 2008, it has been an extraodinary experience as far as me celebrating christmas in the general sense(parties, hang-outs, visiting etc) has been a difficult proposition.
I find myself getting seriously bogged down with work, strategizing and mobilizing for d-xtreme unit's Back2Base conference. Work? at christmas? phew!!! Before you think me crazy or trying to boast, ill let you know that its been a choice that has radically changed my world view...
Its a time where my organisation goes out to establish in the hearts of young people in Sapele Delta State, the drive for destiny; we motivate and empower them with the tools needed for personal growth and successful living.
This year though, it has been an extraodinary affair because before coming to town from Lagos, i had an extraodinary experience being a member of the cast of an unprecedented stage play 'AJAI-the slave boy' with an international cast. Then getting to Sapele, we got to clear out the Sapele public library, paint the interior from a terrible dull-looking blue to white and change some of the lightings.
Now as i write this, i am putting together strategies for our summit holding in three days...
So its clear now why my Christmas is crazy fun yet i don't do the regular.
This is my Christmas and im loving it-KFC!
