- My inspiration comes from two of my teachers Miss Kainat, Miss Zafreen and two of my friends Zainab and Waniya who have always been a source of motivation, offering unwavering encouragement, and acknowledging my successes, reinforcing my self-confidence.
- My name is Neha Ibrahim, and my journey as a writer began when I was inspired by two of my teachers. I discovered my passion for penning down my ideas and started my writing career with my first article published in the Pakistani newspaper.
- As a writer, I’ve faced various challenges on my journey. One of the biggest hurdles is writer’s block, and I’ve also had to deal with family members who didn’t initially support my writing.
One of the most positive minded writers l have come across is Neha Ibrahim whose interview looked at the brighter side of life. In addition, her rich words exuded enthusiasm at what she does. This is a commendable trait because as a writer hope, faith and positivity should start with you. It’s a dog eat dog world where encouragement is a bit lacking. Consequently, to stay on the right path you have to push and motivate yourself that is doing your best and letting God do the rest. Indeed, that is what Neha Ibrahim is doing, an unstoppable force in the writing world. Needless to say, time will tell what will become of us and our dreams. Over and above, if you discover your innate talent and purpose in life, one should pursue it even to the end of the world. This is because we only have one chance at life to prove what we are made of. Thus if writing is your forte like Neha Ibrahim so be it, never shy from showcasing your inherent talent to the world. The world awaits for you to amaze it so that it will marvel at God’s creation.

A Mother’s Love
Your arms were always open
When I needed a hug.

Needed a friend.
