Yesterday was our final day at Chikumbuso. The Chikumbuso school was filled with many memories that were both fun and awkward. The widow’s project, the bag making has been improving since I first visited last year. Also in Chikumbuso they had started a new program where young men turn glass bottles into wine glasses and cups. After seeing how much Chikumbuso has changed and flourished in only one year I think that it only means more success for both of the programs.
One new memory I have is of two girls I remember from last year named Esther and Peggy. They both wrote a letter to me. I thought it was really cool that both of them remembered me because it showed me how friendship can last even though them in a long time. I also realize that I’ve forgotten about the many other friendships that I have formed. From now, I would like to renew these friendships that I had lost many years ago.
