I still remember the childhood I spent in MVA, my aaya didis, nurturing me, feeding me, teasing me, and playing with me during my early childhood. I still remember my classmates, arguing, playing, jollying around, pranking each other, and learning together. I still remember my teachers kindly teaching lessons and reprimanding me while I secretly skipped assignments. Fast forward to today, surprisingly I still find myself connected to them, cherishing those moments every time I meet them. Thanks to MVA for offering the community to grow me with all those people for cherishing my childhood, encouraging, supporting, and helping me learn to strive for my better self. Thanks for helping me deeply root my values, ethos, and morals in respect to my community, heritage, culture, and natural environment. At times, it’s always the teachings, experiences, and memories from childhood that help me strive for my better self as I roll on with living.
