A Peek into My Life

My name is Charis... Just one word, one name but multiple facets to my personality.
I am from Nigeria, a country with vast potential just waiting to be exploited and harnessed. And our people? Oh, our people are one of the most vibrant and intelligent that have ever walked the earth.
I have several interests but I'm sure you must have had a glimpse into one of them by the above PR statement wink It is no secret that I'm obsessed with my country... I'm a staunch supporter of everything Nigerian, from her food to her dressing and even her way of life. You see, Nigeria has gotten a bad reputation as a result of some negative info blown out of proportion. I mean, who doesn't have a bad hair day every now and then?? But above it all, you find brave men and women who are able to beat the odds with acts of inspiration every day that renew your faith in humanity. Aside from being a hard working people, Nigerians are survivors, they are loyal, resilient and did I mention the crazy amount of insane humour that abounds among us? Nigerians can turn a terrible situation into a humorous one through the gift of gab. We win hands down the "wittiest people on the surface of God's green earth" award... Lolz!
This post is supposed to be about me introducing myself but I seem to be carried away... Lolz. Anyway, that's what being patriotic does to you!
Another thing that best describes me is my faith in Jesus Christ. He is summarily the cause of my existence! My family makes up another important part of my life, each forming the various pieces of my heart.
Lastly, I enjoy meaningful friendships, long walks on the beach, playing with my dogs, reading, music and getting to write that elusive story (whenever I get the inspiration for it! 😉 ).
Shout out to the great peeps that introduced me to this phenomenal community! @antigenx, @brightfame, @Lorenzo1420, @Sammyswt and @joagwu
