Ego
Relationships often come to an end because of someone’s ego. Similarly, leaders’ egos have led countries to fight wars, causing innocent people to suffer and die needlessly. Sadly, in such wars, many soldiers who are people’s loved ones, such as husbands, wives, sons, and daughters, lose their lives as well. All this happens because people don’t want to appear weak and find it challenging to say…

Learning To Say No
How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals? Saying no to someone or something can be a tricky thing, especially when you are considerate of other’s feelings. However, learning to say no is necessary to keep a person from behaviors and lifestyles that can be harmful in the long run. In the past, I felt terrible saying no to people, but I realize that if I don’t have…

Breaking Barriers
You’re writing your autobiography. What’s your opening sentence? This is a true story—of hope and resilience, of dreams, aspirations, and experiences put together. My story aims to restore hope and encouragement in humanity and to emphasize the importance of selflessness and service to others.

Writing
What experiences in life helped you grow the most? One thing that has helped me grow is creative and imaginative writing. I always enjoy expressing my thoughts on paper. One thing led to the other and I started this blog to share my poetry with the world. But it metamorphosed into something bigger. I have manuscripts of poetry, fiction, drama, children’s books, and other forms of writing to…

Poetry: Moon
Dear Moon—You beautiful ball of white light. I saw your smiling face this evening, and it reminded me of home. You stood—a shiny ball imposed on the fleeting night clouds. I see you as a myth, a floating phantom without legs. You swept—the streets and roads clean with your pretty light. Incredible, natural, unspoiled, immaculate, and divine only describe your supernatural existence. Solitude is…

Relationships
Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done. I learned that there’s no perfect time to start a romantic relationship but I haven’t made effort to begin with. However, it’s a priority to me now.

Egusi Soup
What’s your favorite thing to cook? Spicy, warm soups are delightful for me. Food is culture. Food is life, and I can go on dropping poetic lines about food. As a traditional person, I am a foodie who appreciates good food! I love traditional Igbo dishes like egusi, ede, ogbono, uha, and onugbu. Growing up, I learned to cook because I visit the kitchen often to keep my mom, aunties, and sister…

My First Name
Write about your first name: its meaning, significance, etymology, etc. My first name is Okechukwu which originates from the southern Nigerian Igbo tribe. It means my portion or share from God! Most Igbo names arise from situations and experiences encountered by people. I can expand the name this: Okechukwunyerem!—which means the share I got from God!

I’m also interested in becoming a travel blogger. It is a dream to travel around the world, particularly in Africa to document folkloric traditions. Also I would love to be a professor! Sharing my knowledge with…

A Good Leader
What makes a good leader? What makes a good leader is their ability to have empathy and humility. By being humble, they put themselves last but not down. By having empathy, they put themselves in the shoes of others!

Weapons
If you could un-invent something, what would it be? You will agree that weapons have caused more havoc on humankind and the environment. Sadly, even modern ones are being developed by man to destroy fellow man and nature.
