Women of the Pandemic

By

Michelle Okafor

We suddenly have to find new and innovative ways to go about our daily tasks.

There is a job to do, children to take care of and feed, a family to look after, but now with unforeseen challenges and obstacles.

I would like to applaud these women, who despite the fact that their burdens lay heavy on their hearts, still go about their daily lives with a skip in their step and with their heads held high.

I applaud you beautiful woman. For we are one, our challenges may be different, but our desire to lighten the loads of those around us are the same.

We strive to be that beacon of hope in the lives of others. And we know that one day, this too shall pass.

But until then, we pick up our collective load and we carry it into the light

Much love,

Michelle
