Hey friends! I am Muhammet, a junior management student.
My Village
It may seem unusual that I can’t stop myself from mentioning my village, but it’s true. For my personal growth, my story, and my life, it remains the most vital part of who I am. It shaped the person I am today, and I want to share my insights with you!
From the very beginning of my memories, I was with our cows, fascinated by their lives and their connection to nature. After school, I would herd cows in the pasture, help my parents, and take care of our small farm. Like everyone else, I sometimes complained, but most of the time, I truly enjoyed those moments.
In addition to our animals, we also have some agricultural fields to cultivate and harvest during the summer. That is why I was also involved with agricultural machines and the hard work they require. When I was working in the fields, I was always dreaming and wishing for the summer to pass quickly since it was quite a hard job to work under the sun during the day. However, it makes you hold on to your dreams, which will make everything easier in the future.
Lastly, I want to highlight the sense of community in my village, as I believe it’s a significant part of my story. In my small village, every home felt like my own because everyone relied on and supported each other in every situation. Thanks to this, I grew up with a strong sense of community, and I can still see its influence within me today.
Like my father says: "Do whatever you want, go wherever you want, become who you want to be but never forget your roots and your people"
