Elder Dinku placed his hand on Alem’s shoulder. “Remember, child, a road is only as good as the people walking it. Let the steps you’ve noted guide us to walk together, not over each other.”
Alem walked home along the newly paved road, feeling the vibrations of trucks, cyclists, and children playing in the dust. Each stone under her feet was a reminder: investment is a double‑edged sword, but with deliberate, peaceful steps, it can carve a path to shared prosperity.
