Photo 2: Doreen, Agnes and Immaculate early days.
I have the pleasure to inform you that I have already
reported back to school for my last semester of the course.
I am also very glad to inform you that it was such a joyful
moment to watch our friends being congratulated upon completion of their
course. It left me so jealous. I must confess that tears rolled down my
eyes to see Doreen being driven away from me to Mbale (her home village) for
her graduation party. I felt the biggest gap ever. Although others were close,
Doreen was the closest to my heart. She acted exactly like my elder sister, and
a good friend. Meg, you gave me an opportunity to meet a sister.
In this regard I thank you very much for your generosity and
kindness towards us. Because of TGF, I have been able to meet and study with
people who share almost the same experience as mine. I realize that in all
these experiences we have shared, you have been able to build my life
academically, emotionally and spiritually. The encouragement from Doreen,
Jennifer, and other Gretta Scholars has made me realize that I am not the only
person with a sad past and that I can go on despite the past.
That is why today, I thank you and the Gretta family for
having brought us together and above all making sure that our future is not in
any way similar to the past. I am sure there are instances in which we
have not made you happy, but please forgive us.
