As a proud member of the Batswana culture, I've been immersed in a rich tapestry of traditions and beliefs that have profoundly shaped my worldview. Within this cultural mosaic, two teachings stand out as particularly endogenous to my ethnic group, influencing how we perceive the world and interact with it. Among the myriads of cultural nuances, two core teachings stand out as particularly endogenous to my ethnic group, serving as guiding principles that influence not only how we perceive the world but also how we navigate our lives within it. From an early age, I was instilled with the understanding that leadership is a collective endeavour, rooted in accountability and service to others. Whether it's the village chief or the head of a household, the principles of Bogosi emphasize humility, fairness, and a deep sense of duty toward the well-being of the community.  This teaching has given me a deep understanding of responsibility towards others, which has profoundly affected my worldview. Being in a position of authority alone is insufficient for effective leadership; one must also possess empathy, compassion, and the readiness to put the needs of the group ahead of one's own. The Bogosi tenets serve as a compass for me in both my professional and personal life, encouraging me to lead with integrity and to constantly pursue the greater good. 

Another essential lesson that is profoundly embedded in my culture is the idea of Botho, which is commonly rendered as "humaneness" or "human dignity." Botho stresses how important it is to treat people with dignity, compassion, and understanding no matter what their circumstances or background may be.

Fundamentally, Botho represents the idea that each and every person is worthy of respect and consideration. It is a way of being that penetrates all facets of life, from interpersonal relationships to societal institutions, rather than just a collection of rules to follow.

I learned as a child that Botho is essential to societal harmony and coherence, not merely as a moral requirement. Whether it's being friendly to strangers, being humble, or using communication and reconciliation to settle disputes 

To sum up, the teachings of Botho and Bogosi are not merely theoretical ideas; rather, they form the foundation of Tswana culture, influencing our behaviour and forming our worldview. By fostering these cultural ties, we honour our history and help build a community that is more compassionate, equitable, and harmonious.

I was awakened by my alarm from the depth of my slumber while my body was in excruciating pain. my body felt like a colony of woodpeckers were humming a peaceful melodic. I would spend another 15 minutes of my life trying to together my thoughts and connecting my soul with my body. 

as I arose from my bed the first thing, I did was to drink a glass of water to relieve me from the parched throat that had taunted me throughout the whole night. As I opened my curtains to allow the sunlight in to bathe my room with its golden-brown glow.

I would hear a peaceful melodic humming coming from the kitchen it sounded like an angel humming.

on my way to the kitchen to glance at the person who was busy creating a melodic harmony that made me forget about my troubles my nose started tingling It was the smell of freshly made pancakes. I would see the aroma of the pancakes I could see the aroma of the pancakes as I walked  past the dark and gloomy corridors 

As I drive to campus, I take a good look at my surroundings, and I would admire the beauty of this I would mistake it for the promised land that has been promised in the bible because of how everything is perfectly aligned and complements each other. As the flocks of birds fly across the sky creating a melodic hymn.

walking across campus never fails to fascinate me because one meets different characters every single day bearing a big smile on their faces as if they have won the noble prize trying to hide their pains and sorrows with a smile, but one can see that they are suffering emotionally just taking a glance to look into their eyes.

my day ends with a long drive home as the sun starts to set promoting an ominous atmosphere across the land the thought of going home to a place filled with love warmed up my heart.

sitting at the dinner table with my loved ones giving grace thanking the lord for spearing us for another day.

as I enter my room tired and ready to take a long good night's rest I notice that I have left my room dirty and untidy it looked like a pig Styne picking my clothes one by one from the floor felt like I was taking in all the negative energy I have encountered throughout the day I ended up placing my head on my pillow and in a matter of seconds I was gone, my consciousness was lost in an alternate universe where my troubles where no more.

 The most common misconceptulization of identical twins is that they have the same characteristics and interests. Regardless of identical twins having exactly the same genetic make up It doesn't mean they share the same personalities or interests. The environment they grow up in shapes their personality traits.

The distortion regarding twins is the confusion between identical and fraternal twins . is that people often assume that every type of twin comes from the same fertilized egg . .Only identical twins share a fertilized egg but fraternal twins come from two separate fertilized eggs

The common stereotype people have against identical twins is that they are equal in terms of intelligence. It is common that one twin brain is on the left sided and the other twin brain is right sided, so basically, one twin is more artistic and the other is more factual.

 In certain cultures, people believe that they must perform a certain number of rituals to ensure the safety of twins.

A sense of otherness is created when people make assumptions that identical twins share everything, resulting in the assumption that identical twins are inseparable and they communicate telepathically. People must not forget that, regardless of twins being identical, they have different personalities and different interests. 

 In conclusion, stereotypes and misconceptions built against twins, most precisely, identical twins, will lead to an adequate number of people being in great disapproval of them. The stigmatization against twins will rapidly increase if the exoticization against them doesn't decrease. However, it is most important to realize that twins are individual people with different personality traits.
