I lost my cousin on Saturday, October 23rd. One of my best cousins. Nonso Onyeabo. He had a blog also and major impact on my life. He was a lawyer, banker, an awesome awesome writer, a POET. His blog - http://ozaveshe.blogspot.com
He was ill, we had faith, he moved on to a better place.
My sister won a competition that same week. She's an excellent writer also and a truly wonderful person - http://morgan.edu/About_MSU/News/Ford-Turpin_Creative_Writing_Contest_Winners.html
Life is full of many many things... When you leave, what will you be remembered for?
