    In the heart of South Sudan, a young boy named Deng lived a life of hardship. His country was ravaged by war, and his parents struggled to provide even the most basic necessities. Despite the odds, they understood the power of education and did everything in their power to ensure Deng was educated.

    Deng's thirst for knowledge was insatiable. He read every book he could lay his hands on. The flickering candlelight was his companion during the long, starless nights when he immersed himself in his studies.

    One day, Deng's village was attacked, and he was forced to flee. His only possessions were the clothes on his back and a small bag of books. He journeyed through deserts and crossed treacherous rivers, but his spirit remained unbroken.
