My self


My Self

Whichever way Man comes into the world

Whether by Big Bang or by a creator of the world

Africa is where I was born and raised

Africa gave me a black skin color

Hence, gave me the name Priscilla Ofori Amanfo.

 

Results –oriented is my motivation

And seek to influence a given people where I am in spite of my introvert behavior

Despite my height, being short, I always aim to reach higher above the sky

Height is no impediment on my vision and ambition.

 

I am a fast learner,

And a good listener

Nothing escapes me because, I am a good observer.

Anger management is what I need since anger is a weakness

However, compassion to me is a flaw

 

I nail problems straight to the floor

Sometimes I am stricken with mediocrity

But because of society,

This socialized me into a strong lady,

I want to overcome “averageness”

Giving back to the society is priority.

 

I try to stay calm

When faced with challenges

In totality I am Stoic.
