Crap

Every single day, she wakes up early.
She works hard, she's honest and loyal to her company.
She has been doing the same thing for the past 20, 30, maybe 40 years.
She earns enough to pay her bills and feed her children.
She pays her bills on time. Always.
She pays her taxes, also on time. Always.
She saves every peso that she could possibly save.
She is not superwoman, she gets sick.
But even with this, she wakes up early and goes to work.
She'll take the bus and then the train and then the jeepney.
It's crowded but she carries on with a smile.

She will still be doing this everyday for the next 10 or 20 years.
She works hard, she was never late, never absent.
But when she stops, almost instantly, she and her family will be hungry.

Her honest and good intentions does not deserve that.
She deserves a break.
She deserves to enjoy the remaining years of her life.
She has worked for more than half of it anyway.
