Women are more powerful than what people think🤜🤛



Women in the society I've been compared to weakers, they referred them as rib taken from a man, thus consider as fragile and weak. But little did they know that tis rib has an important role to play in the society, little did they know that this rib is more powerful than we can think. Here is a story of my mother who' struggles in her life to become an important personality. My name is Eka Assoua Christine Ladouce and the story is an experience I had with my mother. My mom had a father who always provided for them who always gave them what they needed but unfortunately for them my mom father died, but after her father dead her uncle's from the father's side came and wanted to snatch all the properties from them, and because of that my mom and her sisters couldn't continue their education. For my mom it was worst, because she ended up with a pregnancy which the genitor refuse to assume his responsibilities. Yes this pregnancy was of me and my father refused to take over his responsibilities. Thus, my mom had to struggle in order to raise me up, during the pregnancy she had to sell water carrying it on her head, when I finally came on to this world she had to do a small commerce in order for me to be fed. For my education my mom had to abandon me to my aunty for some time to go and do the teacher training in order for her to start doing a better job. By then my father was coming once a while to see me but never did he left a dime for my education needs or my social needs. By then my mother was teaching in a private primary school in order to care for all my needs. When I was upgrading to secondary school it became more and more difficult for my mom to cater for my fees in school because I was in a college, so what did she do; she started applying for an integration in a government primary school which will enable her to end up more financial means in order to care for me. These took her so many years about 10 years in order for her to be accepted in the government primary school, she was finally accepted in the government primary school when I was in upper sixth. And here in our country when you are finally taken in the government primary school you don't receive your first salary for at least one year. I was asking myself questions; how is my mom going to pay my school fees? Will I write my exam this year? All these questions really bothers me. But my wonderful mom when over limits to pay my school fees, she even went to the extend to tomorrow money in order to pay my fee and my GCE A level registration, and with that I passed my GCE examination. That was so much wonderful. That was when I realized that women in general and mothers in particular are very powerful, they can go to the extent of their limits in other to realize what they want, thus, we should not take women and mother silence, patients as weakness because they are more stronger than we can imagine. Today I am in the University more precisely in my second year, and my mom have never give me a chance to complain for my personal needs because she all provide for it. Thanks for reading my story hope it is going to give more encouragement to women and to all mothers don't forget to like and say how this story makes you feel and follow me in order for you not to miss so story.
