Keep the genesis of Bloom!
Read more: Keep the genesis of Bloom!About 16 years ago today, my family and I gathered together to bury my dearest father. I still vividly remember many symbols from that day. All his children for example, wore white, particularly a thick white cloth common among Delta Igbos of Nigeria, called Akwa Ocha. My dad’s burial was the first time I had…

Keep love!
Read more: Keep love!Love doesn’t need translation. Not when it translates itself. Picture this, a little boy, almost 5 years old, in a grey shirt and blue pants, with arms outstretched as if reaching to the moon and stars above, and the words love you to the moon and back, written next to the moon and stars, and…

Keep the lessons of trees!
Read more: Keep the lessons of trees!The briefest of rain will remind of how red maple trees are trees and content, always, for not a single red maple tree you see, speaks a word of complaint, neither do they have questions nor answers to give, yet they live as though they have been told to live, with their red leaves bursting…

Keep this fire!
Read more: Keep this fire!Rumi notes that pure gold delights in fire. The same also for the beginning of ideas. I’m in a phase where, together with a dynamic team, we are birthing ideas solid like gold. We are also passing through fire.

Keep writing books that help children see themselves!
Read more: Keep writing books that help children see themselves!Like many, I never intended to write children books, never even planned for my writing to be one day published as a book or for children. By the time my oldest child was in 4th grade, a brilliant little girl, who suddenly didn’t want to go to school one day, the necessity of my words…

Keep these thoughts
Read more: Keep these thoughtsWe know that anger helps, hunger for solutions too. We know that despair stiffens and joy seems for red birds far from the skies. We know these times are full of fear, these days are truly hard to bear, and even if they rule with no care, at least our hands are bare.

Keep the gift of sight!
Read more: Keep the gift of sight!While I started to write to celebrate a new found love for sight, the winds outside my window started to sing. Some of their tunes were loud, almost like the sound of a plane passing by, then some were slow, almost like a clock ticking by. So I closed my eyes and heard sounds that…

Keep the water you drink!
Read more: Keep the water you drink!My mother’s favorite saying for everything concerning life is that the water you will drink will never pass you by. Today, I drank some heavenly water and when I was done, I called Nnem. Of course she said the same thing again that all I can say is keep those whose only goals are to…

Keep the heavenly sounds of Roberta Flack!
Read more: Keep the heavenly sounds of Roberta Flack!Imagine the sound of velvet melting, the thought of a human kindness day, the desire to understand one another, even if it kills us softly, even if we wonder where is the love. Such was the power and charisma of Roberta Flack and though the world may have lost one of the most underrated artist…

Keep all the ways you flare, fail, then flare again!
Read more: Keep all the ways you flare, fail, then flare again!I choose to flare, choose sunrise, and anything else the sky brings. I choose rain failing out of the hands of God, choose still the skies afterwards, the trees and all it shuffles, the beetles burrowing deep into the earth, and little boys who voice sound like the cadence of mockingbirds. I choose all these…

Keep the art of grant writing!
Read more: Keep the art of grant writing!I am giving myself permission to write grants that do not depend on anyone’s liking them, because what I want to do is write better. A grant writer does not always write in the ways others wish. The grant writer has to solve certain kinds of problems in writing. The way in which I handle…
