Empowering Young People By:

As we count down the hours to bid farewell to 2024 and welcome a brand-new year in 2025, I find myself reflecting deeply on the journey I’ve undertaken since my birth in August 1968. From starting my educational journey in 1977 at Mun Catholic Mission, Dei District, WHP, to formal employment, self-employment, and now at over 50 years old, I look forward to the future by understanding the lives of those past 60, 70, and 80 years old. Imagining the challenges ahead, including old age, I recall King Solomon's words, “Life is Vanity of Vanities.”
