SINGLE (with a kid), JOBLESS AND DROWNING - Kick Yourself Out of the Abyss Life Throws You Into! #774320

This is my life journey - the hardest part; at 40 I was a single mother who had a kid to raise, huge debts, a life to live and I was jobless. There weren't any pre set formula to fall back upon. Reality hit harder than a truck would at the speed of 130 kilometers per hour.

What transpired in the subsequent 13 months have been recorded in this book. No economics class or commerce subject could have prepared one for such travails.

It was a time I discovered who were my true friends and what was my strength. It would be a lie if I say I had not contemplated suicide at the lowest point during the journey. I did but I decided to fight back with all I had - I had nothing left except the fighting spirit.

Hardest lessons learnt were about people who had basked in my suffering.  Greatest lesson learnt was that options are aplenty around us, it is up to us to grab what we can and pull ourselves out of the abyss.

I had emerged unscathed from that battle, wiser and most important of all - very shrewd.

I have recorded my 13 months' journey as a guide to those women who are in similar predicament. Believe me, there are ways to raise funds and continue your life, than to fall victim to anyone who is out to take a free ride on you!
