"Steem Bingo #3 "Story" / The 24 Stops of My Wandering Heart.

I read through the published contest over and over and came up with the following numbers shared below 👇.

3, 5, 7, 12, 14, 18, 20, 23, 26, 28, 30, 33, 35, 38, 42, 46, 50, 53, 59, 61, 65, 68, 70, 73

No, I am going to use the above 24 characters to write a story. 24 Stops of My Wandering Heart. Each of the given numbers represents a piece of my journey in life. Out of the numbers, 3 was the number of days that I spent in Calabar beach, soaking in the river. 5 was the hour that I left Calabar for Lagos for the first time in my life on a solo trip.

At 7, I arrived in Abuja to stamp my passport so I could take a flight to Lagos before traveling out of Nigeria. 12 mark the unforgettable month in my life that I wandered through the Lagos Wilf plains. The number 14 was the bus number that I took across Lagos to the international airport.

The first time in my life that I traveled alone was when I was 18 and it was so terrifying and liberating. The amount of money that I used to book my flight was 20. The day that I lost my phone was on the 23rd, as I arrived in Tanzania as a stranger. Since I didn't know anyone, I got stuck at 26, in a very lonely place with no network available, but filled with a slew of stories.

On the 28th, I then met someone who helped. 30 was the day that I experienced the longest journey in my life on a train ride. Looking at each of the numbers reminds me of the memory that I experienced. 33 hours without sleeping, 35 photos taken by me, 38 degrees at sunrise, 42 people I came in contact with, none of whom responded to me.

Each time I remember this digit, I know it is a feeling of freedom that I will not forget so easily in my life. Thank God for where I am today.

I am inviting @joan-na, @woka-happiness, and @anthony002.
