ME

Amaka can be sweet

Who's AMAKA?

Hi. AMAKA is me. (laughs). I can't think of anything than to say I am everything my name 'Nwamaka' stands for. (Nwamaka is of the African Igbo origin which means "beautiful child"). Yes plea...se, call that name again!

I am a beautiful child of God. As beautiful as a butterfly. And I soar on wings as an eagle breathing heavenly atmosphere.

I believe this world would be a better place when every heart radiates with God's amazing love. I am passionate about GUARDING THE HEART like crazy because everything we are on the inside sums up WHO we truly are. And to think on the things that are pure, peaceful, beautiful, noble, of good report and lovely is the surest way to guard the heart.

Amidst the looming darkness in life's busyness, we need to find ways to stay connected to what matters most and to reclaim what often gets lost in the swirl of day-to-day activities: qualities such as, sweetness, positivity, creativity, joy, humor, gratitude, and love. So I strive as hard as I can to shed a little light here and there.

Erm, one thing is I have edited this profile many times. Just when I think I know who/what I am, I evolve again. So I'm on this journey to discover the real "who" and the "what" about me. Stay with me as I reveal bits of my discovery on each post . . .

HOW/WHY the BLOG Started?

Here goes the story:

I'm so helplessly in love with the media and broadcasting world. I especially have a thing for the radio. I dream to be on the radio, hosting my very own love and inspirational programme- Heart Rays at night. yes, I really do love the night shifts. Maybe because I've got a soft, tender and tilting voice. Yeah. ( Glory to God!)

At the time, I'd visited quite a number of studios, sent application letters and had auditions at various radio stations (in Lagos, Nigeria precisely). But for some God-know-reasons, it didn't work out. (I couldn't cry. For eyes have not seen and ears have not heard!)

I was restless. Desperate for a release. See when the heart is set aflame, it seeks the places for its explosions. It has to emit rays. I've got a heart which is so turned up and needs all channels for the energy!

It's like when you've got fire in your bones, butterflies in your stomach, and maybe even elephants in your behind. You can't be still. You can't afford to sit at a place. You just can't keep quiet. No way!

So I started sending my recorded Voice Notes to friends on Whatsap and BBM. The voice notes actually started as a joke to screams and then eventually to jingles. And since then, I'd been learning, growing and glowing. It's really fun to share. It multiplies your joy and makes life more interesting. Sharing is living! I understood what sharing really means. The feedback I also got (till date) was motivating."You deserve to be on the radio" "Wow!" "I was so blessed by your message" e.t.c.
Shout out to my lovely pals jhorr! :D

You know how it goes now. That moment you start to feel you can fly even higher. I set out praying and fasting on taking it to the next level.

So then, on that beautiful day, it struck me, having a blog wouldn't be a bad idea o. It could be another channel to transmit the radiations, yeah? hmmm...

And here we are.

Spreading my wings.

Shinning the light.

Let's Iight up the world! 🙌

Amaka can be inspirational

What Has Kept AMAKA Blogging For More Than TWO Years Now?

I looooooove blogging!

I blog to inspire lives. I blog to shine my little light. I blog because I just love expressing myself, my views, my thoughts, and sometimes my little dirty secrets! I also blog because I see it as an outlet for my God-given "voice".

For some reason, I’ve turned myself inside out and all my guts have spilled onto my blog. One day I’ll run out of stuff but not yet. 

Until then . . .

I pray you leave here inspired to be better, go further or at the very least I hope as you click away, there's a smile on your face.

What Else?

Oh! Let's say this prayer together:

Dear Lord, ignite a passion and desire for You in my heart. A passion so strong, that nothing can come against it. Light Your fire in my heart, a fire that burns brightly for me to shine forth like You want me to do.Help me to lay aside every weight holding me back. Just like Jesus, help me to go through the pain, the battles, the obstacles . . . and come out victorious, shining forth Your light.Thank You Lord, in Jesus' name I have prayed, amen.

I'm excited to meet you! I want to know this person who being so curious to know me, was patient enough to read this looooong "about me" page. It would be a pleasure to connect these rays with yours. My heart smiles at you right now and will always love to hear from you.
