# Have a wonderful day ahead!

I would like to say thank you to @mrnightmare89 for his post that I dropped by. I was challenged making my story today. I just want to share, maybe it will give lesson to everyone. Thank you @ecotrain for initiating this

Since childhood I already passed many kind of challenges but those challenge made me stronger and I gracefully survived through tears with a little bit of smile sometimes.

**My life I supposed to be compared to the pigeon. Keep on flying on high and distant land as long as I have the wings to fly** This my own picture taken yesterday. 

I am now 49 years old, once a dreamer becoming an educator/teacher but all of those dream  vanished away in a single blink of my eyes. I am the eldest daughter among 6 siblings. I passed so many hardship as we are belong to a poor family. Anyway, we are not poor in term of foods because we are a farmer but the necessity longing money for a better education was the root of all problem from the people in our place. We had no public high/secondary school. I graduated high school when I passed the scholarship examination before. During my college life, I worked while pursuing my studies but I didn't survive. My parent wanted me to worked so I could help them making our new house since our house was accidentally  burned on that time. It was a hard feeling, I kept on crying why I should stop my studies.

When I was on the other part of our country, far from my parent, I was disgraced that brought me getting married at early stage of my life. Another teardrops because it was not  my desires. I was married and blessed with only one child. My husband and me worked for our life's survival. Yes, we survived!

One day, our employer helped me owned a store that we were the boss. What I meant to say, we were the one to manage it and they lend us for capital. It grown so well but when we were still climbing the ladder for a better life, our employer's family got jealous to us. They said, we are not supposed to be in that situation. They removed their capital and left us crying. I did not able to save because I bought a house and lot so we could save from renting. The house we rent was flooded all the time. It was not just an ambition owning a house but it was forur safety and necessity.

For survival to my lost business, I learned  borrowing money from bank. I stood up beyond  the test but 1997 crisis made trouble to the bank I borrowed capital. They filed bankruptcy and they did not able help me again.

Closing my business, I got unbearable debts so my husband forced me going abroad. It was 1998.I left my 7 years old son for greener pasture. That moment was the hardest part of my life. I closed my eyes with tears falling down in my sleep.

God is Good to me, I found a good Samaritan employer who is with me until now. They are the living precious  gift for me in behalf to all troublesome that I encountered.

The story never stop in this point, my husband died while I was away from home. She wind of the storm always teasing me wherever I am. Still, I could say I survived again.

Now, It has been 22 years that I am working in the middle east, Many people said, why I don't go home? It is an easy words for them to say it, they never know what is our internal capacity if I will go home. My mother is on her ongoing dialysis session 2x a week. Yes, my siblings helped me. I spent three of my sibling for school and they are now a degree holders. I paid their school tuition fees from my earning withy work abroad. Yet, their income is not enough.

My son got married and now he has two children. I am also helping them during emergency needs.

Today, I would like to tell everyone, I am a survivor!

**Despite and inspite of all troubles, I am feeling normally, because I strongly believing that God will give me what is the best. If ever, it will never happen to me in this world, I know I will be happy living in paradise with Him our God**
