However, things are entirely here. The problem people meet here is not the lack of water but the mud and water everywhere. It is not _________for people to travel from place to place. The water makes it hard for the cuts and wounds to heal and the fields and harvests, _________the problem of people’s malnutrition. Sometimes, when food came, people fight with each other to get it. Luckily, I can communicate with the people with the help of my good skills
Thinking of what I did and am doing, I feel so of myself because I do all I can to make a difference to people’s life on an individual level. Workingproud
