SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST? . . I am a survivor You are a survivor We all are survivors The world we know is a place A place where every day is a struggle A struggle to live or to die And only the ‘fit’ survive To sleep and to wake is survival To eat and to drink is survival To just ‘exist’ as we know is still survival EVERYDAY… The pains and struggles are real The tears, the smiles, the laughters We see them all, we celebrate them As long as we live, we survive I am a survivor! You are a survivor!! Keep conquering. I celebrate MeYou. ©Amarachi Nwankwo, 2019

Hey little bird! Little bird on the tree. Little bird on the tree could you please sing for me? You sit there and watch with gloomy eyes. Where went your chatterings? Where went your chirpings? Hey little bird! Who clipped your wings? Please, come alive little bird. Again, little bird, come alive @Amarachi Nwankwo, 2019 Note: Children are like birds- beautiful, full of life with bright futures ahead. May we be careful not to ruin their lives with our words, silence, actions and inactions. May we never clip their wings. May we invest love, care and much more into their young lives and be sure to reap them. May we build a sane society. #saynotosuicide

A SAINT OR NOT? . ___ I do not write because I am a Saint. I am no saint. All have sinned and become short of the glory of God. But shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? The wages of sin is death! Understood? I have questions Do we have big sins and small sins? I mean, are some sins bigger than others? Some sins are green, white, green you say? Are there red sins? Black sins? Are some clothed in white and pure? I ask because I see people award themselves- And glory in their ‘sainthood’ For not stealing, committing adultery and killing. Those must be black sins I guess- But what about backbiting, anger, envy, un-forgiveness? Those are not entirely black na, maybe brown you say. My point? All sins are equal. We are all sinners in need of Christ’s saving grace. Your duty is to judge not. Strive to be better. Ask for God’s mercy and purification. Rejoice not over another’s downfall to sin. Pray to be like Jesus. © Amarachi Nwankwo, 2018
