Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother's Will to Survive
Jan 18, 2020firebird770 rated this title 2.5 out of 5 stars
We are certainly given a true picture of what living a life of a cleaning woman, and being a single Mom involves and this author deserves praise for her endurance and will to succeed. What spoke to me was of this woman's everlasting love for her Daughter which in the darkest of days kept her motivated to go on and endure all the mess in her life. She did it for her child and her attitude is what got her through. My problem was getting into the darkness of the book, in other words, the depressing details. I wanted to let the story go because I felt that it was going to go on to the last sentence with the never letting up saga of care less people in this girl's life and how it seemed no one saw her despair. I questioned my disregard for those people struggling in our own community with low wages, or no job at all and on a single income. In other words, could I walk a mile in their shoes? A worthwhile read and a happy ending.
