Normally, the wallpaper and theme of my phone is something I take great pleasure in setting. Especially when the phone is new. Usually, I do find a lot of pictures for it both my pictures and those I find on the internet.

Sometimes, the pictures I choose are related to my mood, at other times they are related to the goals I set for myself and as such I want the wallpaper to serve as a reminder for me whenever I pick up my phone.
I also use pictures of games that I love like chess and football or pictures of movies that I enjoyed.
The wallpaper on my phone used to be of great importance to me until something happened.

I bought a new phone and as usual, I set the wallpaper of my choice. After about two days, the phone reset my phone screen to it's default wallpaper. I was thinking it was a mistake and so I settled down and picked up another picture and after about 2 days, there was a repeat of this.

I tried to set my wallpaper about two more times all to no avail, it kept resetting after two days and my exams were fast approaching so I did not have the liberty of time to keep setting and resetting wallpapers. In addition, I concluded that it does not really matter and that I would use the default wallpaper as it is. Which is what I did.

Since the turn of the year, I have been returning to my old habits which I love and trying to shun those which are detrimental to my health. This has made me to return to setting wallpapers. I just set this wallpaper below not long ago for my home screen. After two days, I would check if the phone wallpaper would reset again, hopefully it wouldn't do that this time. Part of my reasons for choosing this particular wallpaper is because of my fanaticism for Liverpool FC and the youngster Connor Bradley who is a brilliant deputy to the world's best right back, Alexander Arnold.

I also set this wallpaper for my lock screen because I want a year filled with love, laughter and peace. Not that the wallpaper would provide it but it feels good to have such in mind.

If these set of wallpapers reset like the previous ones, I would assume that the phone has problems with wallpapers and will only set again if I have ample time on my hands.
Changing wallpapers is something I like doing after a few months but the issue wants me changing every two days which in my opinion is too frequent and unrealistic.
