Life is about what you want?
How are you going to get it? What are you going to do with it? All my days at varsity I met different people coming
from different background, some of them coming far as Limpopo, some coming far
as Congo and Sierra Leone.
Let me tell you a story of a
friend of mine by the name Linda muhwambi, was born in Congo and raised in Sierra
Leone 26 years ago. Muhwambi was one of the children who were forced to be a
child soldier, but fortunately he ran away from the camp because he didn’t want
to be a soldier, all he wanted was to be a doctor.
He left the camp without food
but he knew where he was heading to, fortunately enough he found himself in
South African. Image yourself in a foreign land without your family and you
have to start a new life. However he managed to get a job in a nearest farm and
he worked so hard to save his money, and then left the farm job for security
job. After some time he enrolled at Boland College for National Certificate Civil
Engineering and Construction, by that time he was working straight night and
during the day attending his classes. After he passes his course he enrols at Stellenbosch
University for Medicine.
Today Linda Muhwambi is
currently doing his third year in medicine. Life is all about hard work, risk, determination
