Conmoverse = To be moved

Sometimes life reminds you of just how lucky you really are.

Everyday, when I walk to the center of town, I walk past an open water basin where primarily indigenous woman hand wash their clothes.

Today, I spotted a little girl, maybe six or seven years old standing near one of the wash basins. All of three feet tall, she had a baby on her back, and was taking care of another little boy playing near the road.

Talk about responsibility.

When I was that age my biggest concern was that my mom didn’t wear dresses like the other moms did.

rough.
