Very interesting to know about Nigeria. There are certain similarities between their culture and Hindu cultures but only in some aspects. How could and where from could they get this culture becomes even more interesting.

Igbo people also stress the importance of education. They are some of the most educated and well off individuals in society. They are also family oriented.
Also yam is one of or the most importance of food crops for the Igbo people. They even have a festival for It.

I admire people who do fasting as part of their religious activities. It is good to go on fasting, I think I can do it but I should have water or fruits. Unhealthy people could not go on fasting, and it is best to ask the doctor first before doing it.

Thanks for the feedback. In India fasting in almost all the religions is observed in different forms but the sentiment behind all these is to cleanse oneself spiritually and purify ones thoughts and deeds. It is taught since childhood and for children the fast is generally for a period of half day depending on their age. The kind of food which is served to people who are fasting is also different from the normal food. Generally it is observed by ordinary folk either in the family or as a community so there is a sense of bonding and focus towards to supreme being.

There are many modern health issues which are created by humans due to the lifestyle being practiced by them. While it was a normal thing and was a way of life in the olden days and people where also physically fit to fast as the kind of work they used to do was physical work. Nowadays people mostly work in offices and have no physical work but only desk work this makes them find it difficult to follow the procedure. The good thing is in India people follow this procedure of fasting and are happy and enthusiastic doing so.

Very cool pic. Yes, soda is nice.

i used to drink soda alto in the past, i was nto able to eat or walk or wake up with no soda and also at night, with food or without i had to have soda drinking and in hand, but now after i learned its bad effect i can not drink it, the taste is not wow for me any more and the price is more now for it and i feel the taste is really not worth it, so nice to hate something that is nto healthy since its hard for us to stop things that are not healthy if theay taste good and i like water with no taste its really human nature thing to hate something when you knwo its not healthy, of course im saying in general since we can not control at day what we like or what we do not like, i use soda now that is in hand for leaning purposes only, its works wonder, which really make think if that did the same effect on my stomach or what, really weird and make you afraid, since food today is only business for these company
