One woman who has gone through more incidents that would put any normal person in depression wondering what will happen next is my one and only MOTHER.
An independent, self-centered, set in her own ways, from the old country, and I do mean countryfied, on the farm, lady who taught all her children the values of life and how to be forever greatful for all we have, by showing us how to grow up on the things we didn't have but felt no less than those friends that did have things like a flush toilet, running water, central heat and/or an air conditioner.
We had family and love and with those two items alone the rest of the luxuries were trivial.

From playing hopscotch on the city sidewalks to weeding gardens with the horseflies buzzing around your head and screaming but no one can hear you.
