What inspires you?

Hello everyone! So yesterday I started the 'What inspires you' series with Mercy Okpanachi opening the 'show'. Today, is another person, you must love her when you're done reading. 
PS: She's a twin! 

 Hi there🙋
I'm Umeh Kanayochukwu Sophia (everyone calls me kany)
Presently in 200 level accounting and I have a passion for arts 🙈🔥
I love drawing.

I used to draw a lot cos I loved hearing people say how good I was and it just gave me a kind of joy and satisfaction but sadly I haven't drawn in a while(almost a year 😔)
Mostly, I love to draw animations and cartoon characters (they are my favs) and I also love graphics (calligraphy and all)
I'm not so good in all aspects of art e.g shading 
I think I suck at it but I try my best 😌
I can't say any artist that I'm so interested in per say but I feel animators, cartoonists and graphics designers are the realest artists ever
But just to be formal I'll say Leonardo Da Vinci cos he is like the father of art
My parents inspire me a whole lot. I could have possibly given up on what I love to do if not for them
Art really is a way to express yourself and it helps to take your mind off stuff.
It makes you feel better and best of all when you see a beautiful artwork it blows your mind away ✌️ that's how we roll.

Dear Friend,

By
On this day last year, I wrote about the buildup of events that led to my dad’s passing. I also said that day started the most chaotic year of my life. I didn’t lie. Today, on the second anniversary of his death, I thought to write to you about grief and how I have dealt with it because, in truth, grief does not leave you; it just gets better. Over the past year, across my social media platforms, I talked a lot about how his death triggered emotions in me that I didn't know existed—new descents into the deep, new levels of highs—anything to get into my emotions or consciously get out of the physically overwhelming feeling that was like a weighted blanket most days. Because I lived quite far from home—up north, to be exact—my guardians broke the news to me at the crack of dawn that Tuesday, and I was broken, as anyone who hears bad news is. I was stumped mostly, but yeah, I was broken. The first person I called was my mom, and on answering the phone, she started to say my oriki , w...

2018- So Much For A New Year

By
December 31st, 2017. The time is 10:15. My Mum, brother and I are waiting for a couple of minutes to pass by before going to the church just beside my house for the annual cross over service into 2018. My Mum’s phone rings. I pick it up and see that it’s my Aunty. ‘Oh she has even called several times. How didn’t we hear?’ I muttered to myself in Yoruba, my native language. I hurriedly make my way to my Mum’s room to give the phone to her. ‘Mummy’, I say softly a couple of times before giving her the phone. ‘Mummy Branco n pe yin ’ Mummy Branco is calling you. Mummy Branco is what we call my Aunty by. Most people know her as my second Mummy, which is very correct.  I watch as my Mum answers the call, definitely still sleepy. Her voice and eyes would clear in seconds when I hear her say ‘Ehn!’ in a high pitch. I definitely knew something was wrong. She hurriedly hangs up and shouts that my Aunty’s husband is in the hospital and on life support and we had to leave immediately. I...

'It has pleased God to call your Dad home'

By
                                                              Photo by Eyasu Etsub on Unsplash 'It has pleased God to call your Dad home'. I went cold. My arms and feet. January 22nd, 2021 I was on my way home from work when my brother called. He asked for our family -read government- hospital card number. It was a very odd question because my dad had retired -as a civil worker- and we no longer used the card for consultation. In fact, we had been told on several occasions that they had taken his card 'off the shelf'. Besides my brother had his own card at the same hospital, being a government staff. So the question was very weird on all fronts.  I told him I could not remember the exact number but gave him two or three numbers that came to my head at that time. I asked what the problem was and he s...
