The youthful age is the most exciting, active and dynamic period of one's life. This stage of life is characterised by physical strength, dreams of a great future, quest for adventure and acquisition of knowledge and experience. At this stage, one can achieve the best in life. Youths are full of hopes and dreams.

They want to try new things, discover and create things. In a way, these are advantageous to them because this penchant to discover, create and try new things can be channelled towards productivity. Besides, some great innovations in the world today were pioneered by young people who were curious, passionate and adventurous; young men and women who dared to dream.

If the youths are well guided and mentored, they will discover their God-given potentials, and channel those potentials towards problem-solving. They will not only be useful to themselves and their families, they will also be making substantial inputs to national development.

History is replete with youths who have contributed immensely to the progress of their countries. 16-year-old Olivia Hallisey discovered a way to detect Ebola in less than 30 minutes compared to the current method that takes up to 12 hours to get results. Four Nigerian high school students, all under age 15, devised a "urine-powered" generator that can supply 6 hours of uninterrupted electricity with one litre of processed urine. These ingenious minds are just a few of the countless number of youths in our generation. Youths should constantly be reminded of their uniqueness and encouraged to be at their best before this stage of their lives passes by.

Father came back after about an hour and told us to go and see mother in hospital the next day; her operation had been successful. The next day we could hardly contain ourselves until the evening when we could go to the hospital. We kept asking Okhen if it wasn't time to go yet, and she kept saying, "Very soon." When we did go, we found mother in a private room.

I had never been inside a hospital before and I was overawed by the spick-and-span cleanliness of the room. Our house in the mission compound was always well-kept, but at the same time it looked lived-in: a toy on a chair, a book on a stool, a sewing basket on the floor, that sort of thing. But the room in which mother was lying was sparsely furnished. The bed was made of iron and painted white. Beside the bed was a wooden locker painted white also. On the other side was an upright chair. That was all, except for the mosquito net over the bed. Mother must be missing us as much as we miss her, for she drew our heads onto her chest

and gave us each a hug before stretching her arms for the baby.

Father puller up the upright chair to face mother and sat down. They began ro talk, and my brother and I went to the window to look at the scene outside. There were many people coming in through the hospital gate because it was visiting time. We spent the time watching them. After some time, a middle-aged nurse came in to take mother's temperature. I liked her uniform very much and I asked mother, "can I have a dress like that when we get back?" She smiled and told me it was a uniform and you had to be a nurse to wear it.

Okonkwo had just blown out the palm oil lamp and stretched himself on his bamboo bed when he heard the ogene of the town-crier piercing the still night air. Gome, gome, gome, gomes boomed the hollow metal. Then the crier gave his message and at the end of it beat a instrument again. And this was the message.

Every man of Umuofia was asked to gather at the marketplace tomorrow morning. Okonkwo wondered what was amiss. He had discerned a clear overture of tragedy in the crier's voice, and even now he could still hear it as it grew dimmer and dimmer in the distance.
