I KNEW
SHE IS NOT ORDINARY AND I WAS RIGHT – She became a favorite for all of us but
now that she is gone by leaving her legacy.
One fine
evening in 2002 I was waiting on our main door with my roomie and I saw a
middle age woman crossing us, at the same time my friend raised his voice as “
Moya Nasiraa ” and went inside.
She
changed his direction on me and asked “ Kale’ah ma keehkuree? It was fair
asking because she didn’t do anything, however that question shouldn’t be
focused on me but maybe I have my fault granted meanwhile I was with my friend
and that’s how I got know about her.
Week
later she came our place to buy some small empty yogurt bottles since we have
kid in our place and that made me ask more about her from my sister. She
explained, Nasira used to sell “ Rihaakuru” in those yogurt bottles for her
living.
As my
friend xeff says, it’s our nature to appreciate or show respect when someone
passes. I am no exception, Now she became a favorite for all of us, mostly for
the beggars on the road who is good in health and has way to raise for their
foods but stays without any dedication.
Nasira
worked her fingers to the bone for her living and her legacy will be a
inspiration.
May Allah
bless her.
