There was a time when women took on the role of head of the family, when the husband had died first. Be the mothers as the backbone and hope of the children.
That is the story of the widows of women in the village who daily became farm laborers. In addition to taking care of the rice fields that they cultivate themselves they also have to work on other farmers to simply get wages for their household needs.
The land for which they cultivated the rice there was a land of their own from the inheritance of the parents or the deceased husband and some who did not have a piece of land, only hoping for pity from the land of another man who every time the rice harvest they had to pay rent for the land.
The rice planting period reaches 100-120 days from the time of sowing to the rice can be harvested, during which the great women every day have to work hard to be a worker in the place of the rich peasants, part of their time to use for wages, partly they use to take care of their own fields.
Do not imagine how heavy the burden of life they bear when sometimes experienced a period of crop failure. But for them it is not the end of life, they still look the spirit for the future of the family, their children in the future.
A mother is indeed a great woman, a woman capable of taking on any role in life. It is appropriate that we glorify them as an Extraordinary Woman.
Love for the Great Woman / Mother.
