Usengumuremyi Venuste is 57 years old, married with 6 children, and lives in Nyarubaka Sector, Kamonyi District Southern Rwanda. Venuste solitary survived in his extended family from the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi with one child. He left with nothing, all his people and properties were exterminated, and his heart was extremely wounded. People used to call him a fool; a madman. He couldn’t sleep during the night and grappled all over 6 years with a chronic stomach with 2 big ulcers. He could not work during the day as his body was weak and traumatized by the horror he had experienced during the genocide. He became poor and lived a miserable life. However, in 2014, he attended CARSA’s Reconciliation Workshop, which helped me a lot to accept the situation and deal with my pain. On the third day of the workshop, he got enough sleep when he repeated the game of producing sleep, and he got to sleep. He gained peace of mind, and his relationships with God were restored. He could sleep enough, and he was more productive than before as he started running his household activities, cultivating available land, and taking care of cows and pigs. The workshop also helped him to release the bitterness that was so heavy for him to carry and enabled him to unite with the perpetrators who killed his entire family. He is now an open person and interacts with people from my neighborhood. He realized that he lost a lot while living in loneliness. Through sleeping enough and getting the inner wounds healed, the stomach ulcers gradually recovered themselves without surgery. Now, he lives a purposeful life, he can afford the education necessities of all his children, and he built himself a modern house with 7 bedrooms near all home utensils that cost him about Rwf7 million.
