being kidnapped by terrorists

Hello guys , this is my draft for chevening's Networking skills essay , i will be very thankful for any help in order to Improve it .

My journey with my network skills starts when i was 14 years old , I was kidnapped by a terrorist group and been in their custody for 6 days

later on i discovered that my neighbor was the one who responsible for planning the kidnap and because of that after they release me i was afraid and having problem with making new network with the people , that was my weakness in that time until i wake up someday and decided to change it and decided to live, so i dedicated to develop my networking skills by reading books and watching lectures on the internet talking about it and when its came to practicing , i discovered how beautiful and important is that as it changed my life for better , this empathize me to continue in focusing and enhancing it until this weakness became my biggest strength .

In addition to that , one of the most important step in developing these skills were during My staying in jordan for the purpose of study , as a foreigner in this country that's motivate me to make a network with peoples from different cultures and citizenship as i participate through alot of scientific and social activities., I was also responsible for founding the reading club in my university and i was the one who led the monthly meetings , as we met every month to discuss and sharing our reviews about the book that we planed to read in the previous month, in a very motivational environment the students from different arab countries and different cultures sit on the same table and share their ideas and views in a very beautiful and interactive way .

After i finished my education in jordan and return back to my Iraq i still have a strong relationships with these people as we always communicate and share our thoughts and learn from the experience of each other that's what make me ask my self, if i got all these benefits from my network with these friends how beautiful and effective will be if i became a part of something bigger like chevening community where thousands of student from all the world sharing a big dreams and ambition like me , this will be Fascinating.
