towards helping our youth

Dear Reader,

Most of us owe our successes in life on the legacy others left for us. Others too, on the quotations, references, influences and in fact, experiences and advises from other people who meant well for us. Therefore, to guide our teaming youth, indeed our semi-literate society live more fulfilled life, write me on one or on the following two:

a) An experience, inspiration, or piece of advice from another person that has helped you in life, stating how, when, (and if possible where), it took place, as well as how it has helped you.

b) A regrettable experience that seems to have done some harm to you, but or by reason of which you have changed for the better.

Eg: When Rev. Fr. Dr. Nnoruka was teaching us Modern Philosophy, He quoted Henry Begerson, a modern philosopher, as saying,

”To be alive is to be active.”

In explanation, he said the philosopher meant that it is the person who performs and contributes positively for a better society, who can be said to be really alive. I there and then decided and began to work to be one of such people.

(Rich. N. Ekegbo, a Catholic Priest of Awka Diocese)

Note:

i) If you wish, indicate the extent you would like your identity to be confidential.

ii) What you write will just be compiled in a book form along with those of others. No corrections or changes will be effected, because of that, try to make it very short; at most one page.

iii) The expected last date for this requirement is December, 2009.
iv) Because of your signature, (and perhaps you would like your contribution to appear in your own hand writing), scan the information to the below addresses:
