Describe the biggest difference in your daily life.
I have been a widow for three years and since then I have been living in a house that was almost falling and being that I'm alone with other responsibilities to meet there is nothing I could do about it. Thanks to Gd I managed to renovate my house and it's now in good shape, my family and I are now proud of it and we feel safe in it. I also managed to pay part of school fee for my children so I now feel less burdened because the fee arrears is not as much a s it was.
