Hello my beautiful steemians how are doing? Merry Christmas and Happy New year. It's my pleasure to be here again with you and I hope you are doing great where ever you are. So join me as I share my view. >What do you think about new year celebrations? Is it necessary to celebrate? Celebration is a thing of joy and happiness so I don't think if there is anyone who does not like to be celebrated. Yes it is necessary to celebrate a new year because it's like celebrating a new born child in the family. Not only that. It is also shows our gratitude to God for keeping us and making us to see another new year so it worth to celebrate the New year. >What are your plans for new year celebrations? Nothing much. is normal cooking food and inviting my neighbors and friends to come and eat and enjoy with me. ![IMG_20220710_090943_557.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPNNXN7jnFPoKfUS6iAbAbr22rYQEXLWjDDEe4eLYL6CZ/IMG_20220710_090943_557.jpg) But before then I go to church first to dance and thank God for his Marcy that kept me alive to see the new year. Then when I come back I start the cooking. >Share any previous year new year celebrations pictures and story. ![IMG_20240414_103929_561.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQSfMBYWERUpsDupK4SdbmBWXtK5krubiYvaxYVWtDreV/IMG_20240414_103929_561.jpg) **Cutting the chicken for the celebration** My previous new celebration was good and I thank God for that. And I so much thank God that I have never celebrated the new years in tears or bad conditions. I remember one of my previous new year we travel to the village to celebrate the new year we traveled on 29 of December so on the first of the next year after we might have finished cooking and eating, my cousin brother took us out to go and witch masquerade When we got there people where so plenty even the masquerade was plenty too. Some where preforming magic and some where busy pursuing people mostly girls around while some where after money. Infact it was a whole lot of fun if you ask me. And I really enjoyed my staying because i was with a guy which is my cousin brother so anytime the masquerade see me and wants to misbehave my brother will talk to them or make sign for them and they will live me alone. Celebrating New year is always sweet because it brings and unites the family back together. Like those of your siblings whom we have not seen for along time but during this Xmas and New year period every one will come back and the house is always enjoyable. Thank you.
