I was on my way out for a walk, and astonished to see this.
The lady has about 10 chairs and a lounger, cushions etc, pulling them by hand along the road, up the hill. Plus if you look at the vehicle behind her, she’s going the wrong way up the road …
So when you think you’ve got it tough and you’re having to work hard, SPARE A THOUGHT FOR THIS CHARISMATIC LADY !
She will probably come home after a day like this and still have a smile and good heart for her family.

This brought to mind a song from awhile back – Quincy Jones “Things Could Be Worse for Me.” A man complaining about the pebble in his shoe when he sees a man “walking” on a cart … with no legs at all. Perspective is everything, eh? Thanks for the Follow.
You are welcome, and I often see even more unfortunate people here in thailand, man with no legs begging etc … So time to pause for thought really 🙂 warm regards DC
When I ponder my #firstworldproblems, I need to stop and remind myself that there are worse things. Thanks for the reminder.
Absolutely 🙂
Wow. Unbelievable. ~very weak SueBee

And I just sit here and bemoan the fact that I have problems walking. After seeing that photo I should be happy I can’t walk. I do wish I could help her out with that load though.
I think she may have been transporting additional seating for the Loy Catong festival … but yeah she’s got some spirit for sure !
I am woman, hear me roar!
This lady is a lion and a half !
Wow!
🙂
To quote president Kennedy: “do not pray for easy lives. Pray for stronger men.” Or in this case we say people. 🙂 to be PC.
Totally, couldn’t agree more:)
I’m not showing this to my husband, it’ll give him ideas!
Treat ’em mean, keep ’em keen ?
Inspirational..:) nice one!
My pleasure 🙂
Wow…where there’s a will, there’s a way. I admire her resolve and strength. 🙂
There’s some charismatic people about for sure 🙂
Yes, you are right, we need to have her in mind. Thanks for sharing.
