Peter è un ragazzo che viene da
un’isola in mezzo alle paludi a circa un’ora di canoa dal mio villaggio, Nyal.
Peter è un giovane come tanti altri, sogna in grande, ha chiari obiettivi per il
suo futuro. Come tutti i ragazzi del mio villaggio sogna di studiare, perché sa
che solo attraverso l’educazione potrà dare una svolta alla sua vita. Qui a Nyal
l’educazione è poverissima, non ci sono insegnanti preparati e la maggior parte
di loro sono assenti dalla scuola perché non pagati dal governo che li considera
nemici ribelli.....
Peter's dream, the hope of the people
By Fh. Mario Pellegrino
2018, juin
Peter is a boy who comes from an island in the middle of the marshes
about an hour's canoe from my village, Nyal. Peter is a young man like many
others, dreams big, has clear goals for his future. Like all the boys in my
village, he dreams of studying, because he knows that only through education
can he make a change in his life. Here at Nyal, education is very poor, there
are no teachers prepared and most of them are absent from school because they
are not paid by the government, which considers them rebellious enemies.
Peter believes it, he really wants to realize
his dream and decides: he leaves home, mom and dad and he goes canoeing for a
long journey that will take him to Uganda; he may enter them as a political
refugee because he comes from a country that suffers because of the war; he
will have a very difficult life, without his parents, with limited freedom and
with scarcity of food and money. But he can finally study them and build a
better future. Peter leaves, so many tears when he leaves his mother and
brothers; one last hug, a kiss on the forehead and off in a canoe. The heart ......
El sueño de Peter, la esperanza de la gente
p. Mario Pellegrino
Peter es un niño que viene de una isla en medio de las marismas alrededor
de una hora en canoa desde mi aldea, Nyal. Peter es un hombre joven como muchos
otros, sueña a lo grande, tiene metas claras para su futuro. Como todos los
niños de mi pueblo, sueña con estudiar, porque sabe que solo a través de la
educación puede hacer un cambio en su vida. Aquí en Nyal, la educación es muy
pobre, no hay maestros preparados y la mayoría de ellos están ausentes de la
escuela porque no son pagados por el gobierno, que los considera enemigos
rebeldes.
Peter lo cree, realmente quiere hacer realidad su
sueño y decide: se va de casa, mamá y papá y se va en canoa para un largo viaje
que lo llevará a Uganda; puede ingresar a ellos como refugiado político porque
proviene de un país que sufre a causa de la guerra; tendrá una vida muy
difícil, sin sus padres, con libertad limitada y con escasez de alimentos y
dinero. Pero finalmente......
