The world is full of twists and turns for young
South Sudanese youths such as my self. We endeavor to equip ourselves with education however and whenever we can but only ‘if” the opportunity
Presents itself, otherwise you are a “sitting duck” waiting for the next “feeder” to quack at. For us, Our lives are define by what our natural instincts tents to direct our noses to. After all our country imperfections seems to haunt us even when “peace” avails its benevolence bowls. Self dependence is yet just another illusion to which one tells thy self “one day, oh dear God one day I will take my mother out of the village but for now she’s safe there” and so due to this misfortunes my beloved people gave on to such perception when the Shakers and changers of a nation are themselves.

Moving from one place to another I’ve come to learn that people will take you the way based on your origin. As much as it boils me up to my core, I can not express aggravated gestures when it is the truth they speak. however If you ask me how my “kindergarten’s years were” and hint on that devilishly crafted Grinch that betrays your enjoyment of the years well lived as a child, my reply would simply be “it was nice”. If you provoke what I dream to achieve to bring my people to the spot light of recognition and enlightenment, provoke my desire to change what my fathers and for-father’s tried to changed with no proper avail, provoke the existence of my culture hindering the modern societal trends and beliefs then my friend you have a different thing coming for my rage extends beyond your well perceived classical conditioning, beyond your ” unintentionally” enforced judgment and your overly self dominance perception my rage shall know no bounce.

Like many of my brothers and sisters who have experienced the bitterness of blinded men with no positive vision for this world our dreams are valid.
My mothers and fathers who’s world was torn apart by the cruelty of overly egotistical Ill mannered selfish individuals who whatsoever have no regards for life and peace your tears are not wasted. And my little upcoming generation in an overly influential world I fear for you and I shall not abandoned you
For worthless scraps. My vision for you my cousins and nephews is far from being realized but not impossible to achieve.

Remember to dream big, think long-term. Underachieve on a daily basis, and take baby steps. That is the key to long-term success.

I am a Filmmaker and its my dream one day you shall dance to the music that is our Nation’s success.
