Name a song, any song, happy or sad, that stirs your heart and soul every time you hear it. What memories, feelings, emotions, and images does the song bring back? Is there a story that goes with the song?

There is always a story behind every song I download to my playlist except it is a group song that everyone has to have in the group most of my songs were collected during my hardest times, happy or exciting times or should I say moments I was able to achieve things I never thought I would.

So, at this particular moment of my life, I think precisely early this year, I was down into depression, I just couldn't tell why I felt depressed but I knew I was at my darkest moment.

I smiled and laughed but I wasn't happy within me, I couldn't tell anyone because I had no words to explain how I felt within. My only companion then was my phone and I became addicted to Instagram.

I remember during the Easter break, when we usually have church service, I had to force myself out of the house that early morning to attend the service while on the bus heading to the church, I felt dead inside of me. I felt this deep sense of loneliness even though I was surrounded by people I love and know love me too, I felt life wasn't being fair to me because I was surrounded by people who were in love but I on the other hand had none.

I leave the house with a mask that covers up how I really felt, I tried to do things that should help lighten how I felt but nothing I did helped take away how I felt within and when I get back home with me alone in the house, I wipe because I couldn't put words into place to best describe what was happening to me and I couldn't tell anyone.

Every night, I found myself scrolling through my Instagram page and that was where I found this song immediately after listening to the line, I decided it best described how I felt.

So, I go out or whenever I am indoors with my earpiece on putting this song on repeat listening to every lyric.

Winter ❄️ Spring 🌿 Summer 🌞 Fall 🍂
Which one is your favorite season and why? If you live in an area that does not have all four seasons, which season do you wish you could experience and why?

I live in a country where the climate is usually characterized by 2 seasons, the Wet and Dry Seasons. The wet season which is summer starts from April to October while the dry season, the winter is from November to March.

Although both seasons have their roles to play and most times also we usually wish, we never had that particular season either because the sun is too scorching making it hard for one to move freely or the rain won't stop falling fire and brimstone making it hard for one to leave his or her home and even most days your umbrella can not help such kinds of rain but notwithstanding, if I am to go for favourite, I would go for the dry (winter) season.

Why I would go for this season isn't far-fetched, I don't have to pack or un-hang wet clothes anytime I wash my dirty clothes or I don't have to wait for days before the clothes get to dry. Dry seasons are good because everywhere is always dry and you don't get any rain that keeps disturbing your wet clothes from getting dry or hindering you from attending an occasion or getting pretty messed up when it starts raining and lastly, I love dry season because I don't get to fall sick or look sick, unlike the wet season.

I think my body system shut down or perhaps can't stand the wet season making me prone to sickness or feel weak.

Optionally, if you were a season, which one best represents who you are? Explain.

Well, I wouldn't best explain my personality by using one season to represent myself. Firstly, I am an
AMBIVERT so if I want to best represent myself with seasons, I would say I am both the WINTER season and the SPRING season.

I am very reserved which I categorize as the Winter Season when I am in an environment or midst of people I don't know or don't like making them think I am shy, but I am not a shy person but when I am with my friends, I am entirely on a new level with them, I am always very much alive which I categorize as the Spring season.

A thoughtful song choice. I've had depression plenty of times and the pain is difficult to put into words.
What can I say but quote something from Shakespere, "If we are true to ourselves, we can not be false to anyone."

Seriously, the pains are difficult to express to someone else to make them understand what you are going through or feeling.

Thank you ❤️
