We call her maid

We call her maid 
A poor village woman who has not even seen the town make a decision one day to travel aboard and become the bread winner  of her family due to the cruel play of fate.
For her aboard is a new place she hardly knows the new language but she manages to 
acquire the foreign language  she doesn't know the calculation of the money but she desperately learns to assess it. Every second she works to earn it 
    She eats whatever is given to her, she wears a different uniform for her identification at home in parties or wherever she goes she is made to sleep on the floor 
  She is not allowed to be sick if she falls sick 
             The woman who we call MAID is  also a mother daughter wife sister and queen of her family she leaves  behind her own new born baby and takes care of your children thinking that its her own
       She cooks  food everyday and with pain she throws the left over food by the order of her Madam her Boss reflecting with anguish about her starving family 
     Even in an Islamic country you can see her washing cars 
She doesn't have the right to reply if anything is stolen from the sponsors house she is the one who is targeted 

She raise the sponsor kids like her own young ones but once they have grown up they make her realize who she is 
  
Treat her like your own family member because she treats you like one of her own . She is a woman and a human being born to live but not to be humiliated ....she is also gods child as we are......
  
    Salute to every woman who are doing this job
