“I grew up in a small agricultural family and we were extremely poor. I got married at the young age of 17 and had no clue about life. My husband used to work in the fields while I would take care of home. Life moved on and over time we had two kids. But things slowly changed from bad to worse as we suffered huge losses due to droughts. Life became extremely difficult as my husband got addicted to alcohol and it wasn’t easy to see him get drunk and lie on the streets. That’s when I decided that I’d do everything in my power to get my family out of this situation.
Over the next few years, I took up any work I could find, before I started working at a construction site. Every morning, I wake up early, cook for my family, send my children to school and report to work by 9. I still can’t believe it’s been six years! My husband recently promised to give up alcohol and start working again. I don’t know if he’ll live up to his promise but I have made sure that we don’t rely on him financially. I just hope he will be able to do it, not for us, but for himself. Till then, I will continue to work hard for my kids’ future!”
