It's my birthday!

It's 1st March, a day that has always been special to me.

I've always loved my birthday, and while growing up, I would disturb my parents until the day arrives.

To contain my enthusiasm on my day, my father once told me that I don't add a new year until its 3pm on my birthday.

I believed it. A part of me still does.

On my birthdays, I count my achievements, and each year I realize that I fall short, far beyond my expectations. But this year, I'm counting my blessings instead, and they are numerous.

God has blessed me beyond expectations, and one thing He has taught me this year is to fear only Him, and every other thing I fear would grow dim.

This is my first birthday here, in Steemit, and I am glad.

I asked God, at the beginning of this year, to give me more opportunities, and I strongly believe Steemit is one of the many I'm expecting.

I am happy, and I hope and pray for greater heights for myself, a closer walk with God, I pray for more providence, I pray for more reach out to humanity, I pray for deeper Joy, perfect peace, my own husband, and heaven

I wish myself all the goodness I can get.

Happy birthday to me.

Happy birthday to @djoi.

Happy birthday to Joy Ijeoma Nwankwo.
