The Arabian Traveler Poetry spends time with Chancellor Jackson to talk about love and how he was able to overcome adversities by finding love and compassion for himself. He talks about his journey to teach English in China and how that transformed his life. He came over adversities through the deep love his family had for him, and his early years of playing football. As someone who came late to play football, he had to overcome adversities and find emotional intelligence to help guide him as a male of color. He talks lovingly of his single mom who raised him along with his brother in a very busy neighborhood and gave him everything he needed. Chancellor K Jackson (1995) was born in Fulton County, Georgia, to Native American parents, grew up in Smyrna, Georgia, and attended Stetson University. For nine years he played football at the high school and collegiate levels. After graduating with a Bachelor's Degree in Communication and Media Studies, Chancellor lived abroad in China from 2018-2019. Chancellor fell into writing after his traumatic experience of being arrested and detained in Beijing for 14 days. His first book, "14 Days in Beijing" has ranked #1 over fifteen times on Amazon in multiple genres. Chancellor has recently released his first romance drama titled 'You Love and You Learn' now available on Amazon.

This Episode in Arabic. Why Do You Ask
لماذا تسأل
َدخلت َُألبابَ رافعاً هامتيْ دونَ أن اخجلْ
فلماذا تسأل؟
َدمي عربيٌ مرويٌ من ماءِ َزمزمْ
وإخواني في هذا الكونِ أكبرُ واكثرْ
والليلُ والنهارُ واسودُ الغاباتُ تعرفني
أنا الليثُ ينحني لي ََو يفزعْ
عندي سؤال اليكَ قبل أن تسأل
أليس تعرف أجدادي؟
هم سادو الكون من قبلي
وهم كانو مني افضل
أم أن جيلي الضعيف أنساك أني
حفيد لأمراء البحور؟
وأنا أمير ابن أمير ....
قد ذل عبر السنين واكثر
فلماذا تسأل؟
فهي هامتي ....
تلك إلهامه شامخة…
مليئة بالكبرياء…
وأحلام…
وتاريخ عريقٌ…
قد هرم ونسيني…
فرجاءاَ تذكر!
صنع أجدادي التاريخ
وأنا أخجل أني فرطت بشئ جميل واكبر
ولعبت ولهوت مع إخوتي
وشدنا البحر والتيار الي مستقبل أصغر
فالحسرة والويل لجيل كان لا يفكر
لجيل خسر أجمل وأغلي ما يملكه الأفراد والأممُ
كرامةٌ
و شهامةٌ
وسمعةٌ تفتح الأبواب واكثر
أيها السائل: لا ألومك إذ تسال
لقد قصرت في واجبي واكثر
أنا وأخواتي اغتنينا بكنز أجدادنا فتبعثر
هذا السؤال افاقني الي حقيقة مرة
إذا بقيت أن احلم فلن اعمل
فهيا يا إخوتي هيا نعمل
فرصيد حسابنا صفرا في بنوك الامم الدولية
Why do you ask?
I walked in with my head held high and without shame.
So, Why do you ask?
My blood is Arabian, quenched by the water of *Zamzam.
And my brothers in this universe are older and abundant.
The night, the day, and the lions of the jungles know me.
The lions bow for me and run
I have a question for you before you ask?
Don't you know my forefathers?
They ruled the world before
And surpassed me.
Or is it that my feeble
generation that made you forget that I am a grandchild to the admirals of the seas;
And that I am a prince ;
Son of a prince that was humbled over the years and more.
So why do you ask?
For this head;
This head is held High;
Full of pride;
Full of dreams and;
Full of majestic history;
A history that became old and forgot me.
So please, REMEMBER ME!
My forefathers made history
And I am embarrassed that I squandered something beautiful and grand
As I played and sported with my brothers,
The sea and the tide pulled us to a smaller future.
Heartbreak and woe to a generation that does not contemplate!
To a generation that lost the most beautiful and precious thing an people can have :
Dignity;
Nobility;
And a reputation that opens the doors and more.
Oh ye asker,
I don't blame you for asking for
I neglected my homework and more.
My brothers and I inherited treasures and quickly squandered it.
This question awakened me to the bitter truth:
if I continue to dream, I will not DO.
So, let's WORK brothers
For our balance is zero in
The international banks of nations

*zamzam is the name of a well in Mecca, Saudi Arabia which provides natural spring water to the millions of Muslim pilgrims who visit each year. The well is located a few meters east of the Ka'aba.

قصيدة من هي بقلم محمد بدر ٓمن ِْهيٓ؟
ٓمقدسيةٌ ، ٓخليليةٌ ، أجنبِيٓةٌ
أم أميرة من ديار نائيه؟
هي النجم ٓوالبدر في سماءٍ عاليه
وهي الشمس والدفئ
في ليلةِِ برد عاتيه
وهي الام ُوالصديقُه للايام ِالتأليه
ٓبحثت ُعنها مشرقاً ومغرباً
وإذ هي تأتي امامي دانية
احبتي،
نسيتها ونسيت لباب افكارها
فمن هيه؟
هي ٓتحمل ٓجرةً فوقٓ رأسها
ٓتلبس ثوباً مطرزاً
بأحلام وانبات مثمرة
تتحدي التاريخ بذراعيها
وتمشي فوق الدمار
تحطم القيد وتلعن الحصار
هي رمزٌ للمحبةِ والاصرارْ
ُتطِرزُ خارطةً علي ٓجبينها
وتنادي بعلو صوتها :
لا تنساني ! فأنا ٓمسبيه
تلك ِهي ٓعشيقتي وانا احبها
هي شمسي وبدري
وكل ما اهوي ِهيٓ
كلمات الشاعر محمد بدر

My wife and I took a trip in 2023 from Sep 2, 2022, to Sep, 18th, 2022 to Portugal, Spain, and Morocco. Considering that we planned it only 70 days before departure, it exceeded our expectations. As the world was recovering from COVID-19, we were hesitating to travel.
