Hey hivers
This week I would be answering question one of the #ladiesofhive community.
Tell us about your passions, such as painting, dancing, drawing, knitting, taking pictures, etc. The sky is the limit — anything that makes you happy is a passion!
I like the last phrase of the question that says anything that makes you happy is a passion. For me It means that what ever I love to do, and doing it comes easy to me and makes me happy that is a passion, amazing right !!!
I personally do have a few things that makes me happy while I engage in them;
Let me tell you about them:
BAKING;
Yea, you guessed right, all my faithful readers know how much I love baking, it is one thing that comes easy to me, I call it my happy place because I literally bake with all smiles and bubble. I don’t mind the time or place, just give me an oven and all ingredients and I am okay. I love to experiment, I love to try out new recipes, I love trial and error, it makes me know what is missing or what measurements of my recipes I need to adjust. Baking makes me the happiest and I love doing it.
TAKING PICTURES;
I love taking pictures, I have hundreds of pictures that has never been posted, it is amazing how I am a natural in front of the camera. I also love taking others pictures too, I am my husband’s personal photographer even tho he never gives me photo credits when he posts them, half the pictures on his page and even videos are done by me (you can tell I am pained) This love for taking picture isn’t one that would make me want to become a professional photographer tho but just whipping out my phone and taking a selfie or having someone take me a picture is enough to make me happy, and I discovered that I do it all the time, I could just be sitting at home doing nothing and next thing I open my phone camera and start taking pictures of my natural home face, or is it when I dress to go out?, my gallery would end up with so much pictures and selfies.
COOKING:
Yes again, I love to cook, I have always know this right from when I was in the university, I think what made this a personal favorite for me was when I lived with my elder sister, she basically turned me to her house cook, I would go to the market and cook for her, I got so used to it and she got too comfortable with having me cook, that it don’t matter to me anymore, it became so easy for me, I would just enter the kitchen and plug in my ear piece and start to cook, then I Would have to cook like two types of stew and two types of soups, those were on our major weekly cooking days but on normal days everyday, it would be from one dish or the other for her kids and all adults in the house. That was when I discovered that cooking came easy for me, I loved being in the kitchen space and I enjoyed cooking. Hence the reason why I can easily be a diet chef to my clients, because cooking is more fun than a chore for me, I love having people eat my food.
BEING A SOLUTION PROVIDER;
If you are my close friend, you would know this about me, I love to help with ideas, or solutions, if I can’t help I would do what I can to find out how you can get a solution to that issue, it may just be a word of encouragement or advice or a real plan on how to get over that hurdle but if you ever bring a problem to me trust that I might always have a really good advice or solution to it. This is a trait I think I got from my mum, our brains work over time and fast so that as you are dropping the issue we are already thinking of fifty ways out.
This is not to brag but it is something that comes easy to me and I love helping out, I love to be a source of encouragement to someone and just helping out makes me happy. Doing what I can or contributing to make a friend/family issue or burden lighter makes me happy. My sisters know it, when they need advice or a morale boost they call me instantly even tho they are way older than I am, they find me easy to talk to and I am always happy to listen and help out as much as I can. Is there a scientific name for this? Do tell me please I would love to know.
What do you love to do that makes you happy? I am interested in knowing so tell me in the comments below.
