My Supports


The daily support that came right away to my mind would be: my daughters. They are my support when I’m feeling sad; they are my motivation for getting up early in the morning. Watching their beautiful smiles with their gorgeous bed hair in the morning is priceless. The other factor that I consider as a big support is having a house. I have a shelter were my daughters feel safe and can grow. Another factor would be having a car. Having a car allows me to move wherever I need to go. I can pick up my daughter from school, I can do the groceries, I can go to the hospital is case of an emergency, etc. I don’t even want to think if for some reason my daughters are no longer with me. If I had no house anymore I would have to go to my parent’s house and stay there while the situation comes back to normal. If I had no car I would probably take turns with my parents.

The factor that I chose to imagine would be: not having a house. I think having a house it’s very supportive because I can protect my girls, have our own privacy, gives me a sense of belonging, and a sense of authority. Without a house our lives would be a little tense. The first thought that comes to my mind is moving with my parents. For them I would be their little girl and they would want to treat me as such. I would have to live under their rules and my daughters would become their daughters too. They will want to educate my daughters and that’s one think that I couldn’t tolerate. My daughters would no longer see me as the one in charge. My husband will also be not so happy living there. Without a doubt having a house is a stress free condition, a home is a refuge, is a heaven of my own, where I do as I want.
