By: Aron Okello I give thanks to God for the journey that brought me from a small subsistence-farming household to a university graduation gown and now to a classroom where I stand as a teacher and mentor. When I look back at where I began and where I am today, I am overwhelmed with emotion. Only tears can define my joy and immense gratitude. I lost my father when I was in primary three (3). From that moment, my mother became everything – a parent, provider, protector and teacher.
