But she is suffering from high blood pressure and because of her condition, my mum decided to help out in sieving the garri while she fries. On reaching her house, I found out that she is managing to fry the garri because of her health condition. I kindly took over the work and fried it on her behalf.

While frying, she kept on blessing me from beginning down to end. I finished frying the garri by 8:30 pm.

I helped an aged woman to apply manure in her farm

It happened yesterday that I heard a knock on our house gate. I opened and saw my fellow christian believer standing beside our gate. She is aged and needs help from me. According to her, she have the money but lack the strength. She asked me, My daughter, please, tell me, how much will you collect from me? I was somehow confused with such question. So I asked, Mama, collecting money for what? She said, my daughter, I want you to help me apply manure (fertilizer) on my farm. I said Mama, don't bother yourself, I will help you out. she gave me some cash for the fertilizer, then, I bought it from the dealers and went straight to her farm in Umuobasiukwu village where I applied it.

this is where I bought the fertilizer

The aged woman also showered many blessings upon me and that added to my joy.

I helped a fellow steemian

As a staff in steemalive steemit training center, it's hard for me to pass a week without helping out a newbie in this platform. The story am about to narrate happened just last week when on my way back from office, I saw an old friend of mine, though a graduate, still unemployed. Worst yet, she and her family just relocated. honestly, she needs help. I told her to come to our steemit office what3word location. when she came, I calmly showed her free of charge what steemit is all about, it's do's and donts,

Then, I made clear to her the importance of consistency in this platform. Since the rate of unemployment is high, I told her to employ herself by joining steemit. her username is @ad-mama and this is her introduction post

Act of kindness toward my own sister

If I should show acts of kindness toward only the people out there but fail to display one to my family, I think it's ignorance and oversight.

The story took place on Saturday, the 25th day of June 2022 at my sister's shop located at #2 Amalek Avenue, off Umuohia road Aba

That day, I had a serious meeting to attend by 5:00pm and I arrived her shop by 3:30 pm. On reaching, I realized that my sister's hair is unkept and the next day is Sunday. Therefore, I decided to braid her hair.

But, by 4:50 pm I left the hair to attend the important meeting. I came back by 6:20 pm and proceeded with the hair. I finished it up by 8:20pm.

Though risky, I went back home and God also showed me act of kindness by leading me safely back to my house.
