Our networks are the threads that bind us to the world around us in a wide range of human interaction. Every thread stands for a relationship, a link, or a communication that impacts our life experiences and path. Upon evaluating my personal networks, I am reminded of the wide range of people that make up my world, each contributing their own perspectives, abilities.


My family and friends form the foundation of my network; they are the rock-solid pillars in the unpredictable life. These connections are characterized by warmth, comfort, and constant encouragement. My family and I have strong ties that have been developed over many years of shared laughter, sorrow, and experiences. The years of shared experiences, giggles, and tears have created strong relationships. They are my rock-solid supporters, providing direction and comfort when I need it. Friendships are adaptable, developing over time as we work through the life's challenges and victories together. We laugh, tell stories, and occasionally even argue, yet despite everything, there is a sense of unity and understanding that is beyond words.

 These relationships are usually transactional in nature, based on common passions, objectives, or career pursuits. Even if the conversations might not be as deep as those with close friends and family, they are yet important for improving increasing my horizons and encouraging both career and personal development. These exchanges, which can take many forms, such as working together on a project at work, engaging up a conversation at a networking event, or just smiling at a complete stranger, add variety to my social life.

With the development of digital technology, my network's limits have grown even more, covering time and space as well as borders. Social networking sites act as online community sites where I may meet new people, reconnect with old friends, and share aspects of my life with people around the world. I am exposed to a wide range of viewpoints, cultures, and ideas through these digital exchanges, which improves my perspective and challenges my beliefs. I'm impressed by how everything is intertwined when I think back on my networks—the complex web of links that covers every part of my existence. Every relationship, no matter how brief or unimportant, leaves a lasting impression on my path and shapes the person I want to be. In the end, what important are the quality of the exchanges that occur through those connections, which improve our lives and show us the way ahead, rather than the overwhelming number of connections.
 

Every culture has its own unique perspective on the world but one of the most important is a set of beliefs or teachings that are endogenous which come from within the group. The play a very important role in determining how a group identifies itself in the universe and also how its member interact with each other and the world around them.

At an young age we were taught that we should not go near the kraal when we on that time of the month(periods) because that may affect the livestock, like it could die. So when its that time of the month, we would play far away from the kraal.  Since its a belief that women do not belong in kraals, its always been there for generations to generations that when it comes to ceremonies its always been men who stay or sit inside the kraal.

Also one of the teachings i was taught is that as a girl when the sun goes down, you must be already in the house. When the gate or doors are locked, you must be already inside the house.  As a girl your chores were to cook, clean and make tea for your elders. When growing up, we were not allowed to visit friends so even at this age I don't like visiting friends unless it's only for a short-time

I always wake up at 6:30, make up my bed and then i go jogging. After jogging I do the basic things like taking a bath, eating breakfast and preparing for a class. When the transport has arrived, I take my things and lock my room. Then go downstairs for the transport. When i arrive at the bus gate I go to the class which i will be attending at. After the class i make my way to the student Centre to meetup with my friends. Along the way to the student Centre we met new people & greet them. When we are in the student Centre we be having chats, laughing together and getting to know something new about each other. We even go to library to check some books that we will need for our modules. After that I go back to attend another class for the day. In class I usually enjoy the lecture , it be like hearing students answering what I don't usually understand then it will all become clear to me. After the class ends, I go to the bus gate to wait for a transport. The first thing I do when arriving at my res , i take a cold shower because of tiredness. Then after that I go to the kitchen to make food ,then eat. After eating I do my activities and assignments. Then I lay on a bed , opening my laptop to watch movies,or videos on YouTube and tiktok until I feel drowsy then I sleep.

Introduction

Everyone should be able to embrace her or his language in literature. The misuse of language in literature leads to people creating differences among themselves. The results of creating differences are through harmful activities such as othering, stereotypes, exoticization, misinformation, and distortion.

How to write about Africa

They viewed Africa as a country, while it had 54 countries in it. That was unfair to the people of Africa, that was stereotype. They had that image of Africans starving to death, meanwhile that was not the truth. Africa is very advanced in technology and one of the wealthiest continents. Africa was not counted as a place where people can live and survive. They imagined Africans as wild animals which eat things that other humans do not. They made it seem like they should be the ones who can manage Africa. They only had one single story of Africans which is poverty. It was like Africans cannot take care of themselves. They excluded themselves from the blacks, in their mind they were not similar in any way.

Miner body and ritual among Naricema

They described the western practices as strange and weird. The ceremonies may help or not help the sick natives get better.The witch doctor was known to help those who are bewitched. The mother's that secret help from the naricema are the ones who are bewitching them. There's invading of privacy whereas people have to be naked when entering the temple

The danger of a single story

The blacks could also exist in literature. Western people do not imagine Africans as people who also could learn or know english. Africans are portrayed as people who cannot use technology or know anything about it. Having only one side of a story makes you lack information about the person you have on. Do not judge a book by it's cover, without knowing what is on the inside. You can never know someone's creativeness since you only apply othering on people.Mexicans were only known to do silly things not knowing that they can work hard in order to feed themselves.

Changing Your channel

They impose Africa as poorer and very hard to survive, meanwhile they are taking the wealthness from africans. The gold and platinum they have is from Africa. There are organisation which run an advertisement campaigns which are meant to help those in need. There are people giving donations hoping to help those in need. Those in charge of these organisations tempt with the donations, corruption is happening there. They are running those organisations for their own gains not caring about the innocent one's who have nothing. Greed can lead to someone's suffering. I believe that if someone can see potential in you, then there's nothing will stop you from achieving your goals. There were street kids that we orphans,they had no-one only themselves. They met Bart-williams who then changed their life around and set their lives on a clean slate. She saw potential in them and managed to push through by realising their dreams. They are now successful because of Mallence. Someone who is not your family by blood can also become your family

Conclusion

We could promote languages in literatures by telling stories and embracing diversities. Having a single story about someone is what causes othering. You can never be late to start again and become successful. Not everyone have access to daily needs such as food, it's only fair to share with them
