Mankurt

Okay kiddo, have you ever heard of Mankurt? It's a word that comes from a book called "The Day Lasts More Than a Hundred Years."

So, imagine you have a toy that you love to play with. But then, something happens and someone takes away your toy. They keep you tied up and don't let you do anything you love anymore. Eventually, after a long time of being trapped like this, you might forget about who you are and what you love.

Now imagine that instead of a toy, this happens to a person. They get kidnapped and held captive for a long time. But instead of physically hurting them, the kidnappers try to brainwash them. They force the person to forget their identity and their culture.

This is what we call mankurt. It's a term used to describe someone who has been robbed of their identity and their memories. Sometimes, people who have gone through traumatic experiences may feel like they don't know who they are anymore.

It's important to remember that everyone has their own identity and culture that makes them unique. Losing it can be really hard, but with support, people can remember who they are and what they love again.
