Your story is very very touching and emotional Soror Deltabrat.
Being from an African Country, Nigeria, I know first hand how it is to live in poverty. Thank GOD my parents were able to come to the States, seeking a better life for our family. What the media showes us is not all ture. The poverty level in most African countries are beyond beliefe. Most African countries are 100 years behind the rest of the world. War, famine and political uprising has torn most countires apart, mine included.
We take common luxury for granted. We take the fact that we can turn on a faucet and get running water, for granted. It makes me sad to think about my grandmother living in a country where the goverment will cut the electricity for no reason and for you to have it back on, you have to bribe the conductors or whom ever is working there.
Stories like these makes you very grateful for what we have and very blessed.
