She was strong,
She was a fighter,
She was beautiful,
She had to work for her children ,
She was a single mother, fighting for survival.
** SHE IS A SINGLE MOTHER **

Her face had wrinkled, not from old age she was quite young, she had already been through alot : from the death of her husband and to the tragics do being a single mother. She worked tirelessly, day and night.Under the hot scorching sun, during the rain.
** All for her babies to get quality education. **
** MOTHER'S LOVE **

POVERTY IS PAYING FOR A CRIME YOU NEVER COMMITTED.

** what a world??
When is this suffering ever gonna end?? **

She murmured to herself, looking at the sunrise.It was another Monday morning, and she had not rested enough to start the new week sales, she just had to make it to the market and start her business .

She strapped little Johnny on her back, held Nnegi by her right, supporting her bowl of goods with her left hand .
She set off for the day.

The market wasn't good today, she had beat down the price of her goods by half. Not withstanding the loss she just had to sell to ensure there was food for the night and the next morning.

I looked at her, I was in love with her little baby.
I stretched forth my hands to carry the baby, she handed over the baby to me like I had relieved her of a little load.
Nnegi was the most tiny pretty, fragile, little creature I did see, Nnegi smiled,I cuddled her tiny little head.
I bought from her and in fact doubled the cash, I knew what she was going through.

The man at the other side of the road crossed over, scolding her in the quest of asking her for the price of the goods,he had already beaten down the price by thrice of it.
she couldn't wait to sell it for a reasonable price, she emptied her tray for him.

I cried inside of me, I wish had cash, I wouldn't have let her give away her goods at such a rate.
*Why are humans So heartless?
Why are humans such a mystery ?
Why don't you just put a smile on her face?
When you walk into that big supermarket, you do not ask them to beat down the price for you, even when you know you are being cheated..
Why then will You bargain price with a lady struggling for survival, which is giving you the goods at the best rate?? *

Single mothers are passing through terrible things. Things they don't even deserve. We should show them empathy and not scorn. Good post here, Manager

Great post!

I don't why people get pleasure from making others frustrated. We humans are just so inconsiderate and love to gain from other people's misery.
Nice write-up @yhubie. I love your stories.
