To little Nya,

When I look back on all the difficult times I went through, I realize how strong I was. I learned to take care of my sick sister and walked long distances to fetch water for my family. I was really amazing. Now, I feel so proud of me — because even as a little girl, I already knew how to do so many things.

When I was little, I felt very depressed because I got lost and couldn't find my family. Although my uncle was with me, I felt lonely and nervous all the time. Because of the war between government and rebel. I may never saw my family anymore.

When I think about my past,that was really a tough time. My sister was sick because of the dirty water. The doctor said that she needed to drink clean water. However, we did not have clean water then. I felt really helpless and did not know what to do.

I was scared when I was separated from my parents.When the war broke out there were chaos and everyone was panic.

I would feel nervous about the mud water and would really worry about the disease that the dirty water cause such as cramps, stomachaches and diarrhea.

If I didn't sleep that night, whether Marial died? I miss he so much. If my uncle didn't cheer me up, I think I can't through it.😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏

I feel very scared and nervous because my little sister drink the dirty water I bring to her lead to serious ill. And at time I can’t do anything her. I would feel very guilty.

I feel deeply moved when I look back on my journey. All the pain and loss made me stronger and taught me to cherish peace and every drop of water in life. I’m thanksful that I survived, and I hope to help others too.

I think I was very strong then.At that time, in order to survive,I could accept even drinking dirty water.Looking back to the past,I feel that the bitterness was over.I am very appreciate to my family for being with me through the hardships🫂👐🏻.The suffering is over, and now I'm trying to live a better life.

To lil Nya:

When I was little, I thought the world was made of walking.

Back and forth, morning to evening — that endless path to the pond.

My feet knew every stone, every thorn. I carried water, but it felt like the water carried me — away from school, away from time, away from dreams.

Every day I walked.

Every day, the sun burned, and the water was brown.

But I didn’t question it. It was just the way things were.

Then one day, men came to our village — strangers with machines, metal, and hope.

They dug into the earth as if they could hear something calling from beneath it.

And when the first burst of clear water leapt into the air, I felt something inside me leap too.

That was the first day I saw the world could change.

Now, years later, when I turn the handle of the pump, I still remember that sound —

the splash, the laughter, the disbelief.

That water didn’t just save us from thirst.

It gave us time.

It gave us school.

It gave us a future.

Sometimes I see the children running past the well, clean and barefoot, chasing one another with buckets of clear water —

and I wonder if they know.

If they know that once, their mothers and grandmothers walked the whole day for something they can now hold in one hand.

I used to walk for water.

Now, I walk toward something greater.

And every drop reminds me —

the water runs forward, just like we do.

When I realized I had to collect water for my family, I was deeply unwilling, but I had no choice. Every day, I had to walk a very long distance, only to get very little water. Even though I got water, it was so dirty that my little sister got sick because of it. Now, I have clean water to drink and don't get sick from it. I'm glad I survived,and I hope everyone can have clean water to drink, so they won't have to suffer like my sister did.

—You from the future

Ten years ago,I was studying in class,but suddenly everything changed.There was the war between the rebels and the government.I couldn’t find my family and I lost my friend. My friend Marial was killed by lion.I was very sad about it,but I just keep going.

I need to get more water because our family need water and the way is dangerous.my little sister got a sick and she has to drink clean water or she will die.But when water boil , it may gets less.

Sunny

liuamy0524 — 2025-10-20 03:02:04 UTC

I felt tired.When could I find my family?

I met my uncle.That was very reassuring. My friend,Marial was eaten by lion.I was so sad.Would he feel fear and pain?

The war separated me from my family, leaving a deep emptiness in my heart. Every day after the war felt as long as a lifetime. I met people and experienced things I had never known before like Marial. Fear and uncertainty surrounded me, but my hope to see my family again never faded. I kept searching for them, believing that one day we would be together again.

Now the war is over, but I still remember the long walk. I remember the heat, the fear, and the hunger. I was only a boy when I lost my family, but I kept walking because I had hope. I thought of Uncle’s words and the friends I met on the way. Many are gone, but their courage stays with me.I am thankful to still be here.

hsinyuchu0515 — 2025-10-20 03:04:53 UTC

I was utterly exhausted from caring for my sick sister and struggling with the severe water shortage. Nearly every day, I questioned my own survival. Thinking back, I truly was tougher than I realized.

In 1985,I was separated from my family because of the war.Although the war was ended,I still usually think of the time.Thank my uncle,I found my family. I am so sad that my friend Marial died because of the lion. I am so sorry for you, but I thank you a lot. You gave me a lot of power that made I braver and happier. I will never forget you, you are my friend forever.

When the war broke out, I was extremely alarmed.I was concerned and missed my family, but I couldn’t go home.I never saw them again.

Cindy

When I backtrack the difficult time I have experienced, I actually feel gratified that I overcome those difficulties , such as the water shortage and the sickness of my sister. I don’t know what I will encounter in the future, but I will do my best to live on.

Thanks, little Nya. Your efforts have made me who I am now.

When I was young, I didn't have a good time.Because of the war, I had to leave my family and took a long walk.I even made a friend on the journey, but he disappeared in the night.I was very upset about that.I also found my uncle by accident.When we tried to cross the river, we worked together.That was the memorable experience.

Amber

juhsa4183 — 2025-10-20 03:08:43 UTC

I feel that I was very strong at that time. I can’t believe that I could endure the long and hot journey.And I feel sorry for my sister's illness because of drinking dirty water.If possible, I hope it was me who was sick at that time, not her, so that I could suffer instead of her.

It’s been a long while since the war separated my family. Maybe it’s been a few months or a year or longer. I don’t even know what date it is today. I miss my life before the war. I miss the days when I could be with my family and attend school. I’m scared and not sure what will happen next. At least my uncle is with me which makes me feel a bit safer. But I lost my friend, Marial, which broke my heart. I feel more depressed and tired every day. But I still need to move on and not give up. Maybe I will find my family after we cross the Akobo desert. It will be a difficult part of our journey. I hope we all can survive and make it through it.

I still remember that I walked under the sun to get water. I filled the containers with water; it was so heavy that I almost ran out of strength. After I filled the containers, I scooped some muddy water with a gourd and drank it. Most of our villagers moved to the dry-season camp for a few months. I walked for hours to get water and bring it back to my family. Unfortunately, after my sister drank the water, she got sick. The doctor said that we should boil the water before drinking it, but if we did that, there would be very little left to drink. Although that time was difficult, I still made an effort to stay alive.
