I friend I really enjoy reading your entry, you took your time to explain every thing about welcome very well.
It is true as you said when a person goes to any supermarket he or she will see a sign that says welcome, with that they customers will feel relaxed and comfortable.
For me I am so happy that I was welcome into they year of 2024, and I know you are too.
As you have plans this 2024 may God almighty answer all your prayers, before you succeed you need to struggle hard before you can get what you want. I wish you all the best in your life.
Good luck to you dear.
