Divorce, a ruin of the family unit that a child badly need in life. Being a single parent is never an easy task. But one figure who served as my guiding light and source of inspiration is my mother. I was just thirteen years old when my father divorced my mother. Being a victim of such situation, my father abandoned me as a son due to anger.

Most members of the community saw it to be impossible for a divorced woman like my mother to cater for a child looking at her financial state but she proved them all wrong. She never abandon me neither did she lost hope but rather found the inner strength to search for menial jobs. she woke up at dawn around 4 am and walk alone to the next town to get pawpaw then head back to slice and sell them on the road in order to make ends meet for the family.. She will return home only after she had nothing left for her to sell. When she returns back, she takes a nap before cleaning up. In the evening around 6 pm, she then sets off again to the street and this time not to sell sliced pawpaw but rather sachet water. She wanted her child to continue in school, provide shelter for me and food to eat so she never kept anything for herself.

My mother's life and her uphill struggle made me understood that she was doing everything for me and the least I can do is to make her proud of me as her child by becoming a better person in future. Her self-sacrificial life has inspired me to be hardworking and persistent, and also taught me to keep on hoping when all seems lost. She is my mother and continues to be my source of inspiration.
