                                                             This is My Story:Part 1  Early School Life through War!!! Once upon a time!! Haha. Well, the story of my life is a very long one. Today is the beginning of a series of "My Story" that I will keep writing when I have the opportunity. Its a reflection on my early school life.  My education journey began in the mid-1980s, a time when resources were scarce and instability was all too common.

  This is My Story: Part 2   "My Life After the War" In the first part of "This is My Story," I shared glimpses of my early school life amid war. Today, I continue with the second chapter, “My Life After the War.”  When I look back, I realize that the effects of the war gave birth to a deep desire for something different. Join me as I further reflect.  When we returned from exile, we found our home destroyed—burned down and overgrown with bush.  For months, we were hosted by neighbors as my father worked to rebuild our lives. He managed to construct a small hut, but it was so tiny that only my parents could sleep inside. I had to find shelter with different neighbors for quite some time. Life was unbearably difficult.  Before the war, farming was not just our  source of income—it was how we fed ourselves and made any income.  The war disrupted everything, leaving us without food. Thankfully, some neighbors who hadn’t been chased away took pi...
