Such tortuous thoughts! What got into me? I silently reprimand and remind myself not to succumb to this kind of thoughts no matter what. Enough of this because it will only aggravate the situation I'm in. I rack my brain and try to relive all the good things in my life so that maybe just maybe I could fish out something to lift me up from this demoralized state.

After a few moments, memories unfold theatrically one by one like a slide show depicting every moment in my life. The thing is I survived a miserable marriage, got over my husband which was not easy because he is the father of my six children of whom four are already successful in their own chosen fields. And the funny thing is and what really brought a smile on my lips is when people say that I miraculously preserved my youthful glow and figure despite all that I've been through. In fact,I have in my possession a crown and a title in a local beauty pageant for mothers to prove that. Ha ha ha so funny! In short, I am invincible in a certain way and can possibly survive anything. Thanks God for small mercies.

In the words of a world renowned Brazilian author;" therefore, we will speak about our daily lives, about the difficulties we had to face, that is all the future will be interested in...."

I will adhere to this . I will continue to write and share my thoughts like ripples of knowledge ,who knows this humble writing could be of good value or interest to posterity.
