Do You Remember When You Were a Teenager Back in Afghanistan

When you were a teenager back in Afghanistan of course long after the Soviets had finally left Afghanistan you were doing odd jobs. Your father ultimately decided to sell pretty much all of his possessions to raise the money to send you to the United Kingdom that is an extraordinarily difficult wrenching decision both for your parents and for yourself. For me it was a ticket that there is a future even though I couldn't see it but in my mind I painted a picture that I could go to medical school  I could do something so imaginary world that I created and I hang on to it.
