Chapter 1 A Village Life

Growing up in the small village of Kivaa, Machakos, Kenya, life was a captivating blend of simplicity and challenges. My name is Kola, a curious and determined young boy, and I was entrusted with responsibilities that shaped my character from an early age. As the sun painted the sky with hues of gold each morning, I would rise with the roosters to look after the livestock that grazed in the fields. From tending to the cows and goats to guiding them to fertile pastures, I learned the importance of diligence, patience, and caring for the well-being of others.

One of the most arduous tasks I undertook was fetching water from a faraway river. Every day, I would embark on a journey, walking along dusty paths and through dense vegetation, carrying heavy jerrycans upon my shoulders. This task instilled in me a sense of responsibility and resilience. The river became more than a source of water; it became a metaphor for the determination required to overcome obstacles and the unwavering commitment to fulfilling my duties.

Amidst the challenges, my village was a tight-knit community bound by a shared spirit of support and unity. We relied on one another, lending a helping hand whenever needed. Neighbors became extended family, and together we celebrated festivals, told stories under the starry night sky, and cherished the simple joys of life. The village school, with its tree-structured classrooms, was the epicenter of knowledge and growth. Despite the lack of modern educational resources, passionate teachers filled our minds with wisdom, scribbling lessons on blackboards and fostering our dreams to soar beyond the boundaries of the village.

My village life, though modest and humble, laid the foundation for the person I would become. It taught me the values of hard work, community, and the pursuit of knowledge. The lessons learned while caring for livestock and fetching water would become the building blocks of resilience and determination that would carry me through the remarkable journey that lay ahead.
