00:00My name is Amina. I am 33 years old, and I am a mother of three beautiful daughters.
00:07Their names are Sarah, Huda, and Lina.
00:10They are my whole world. I love them more than anything.
00:16Life has not been easy for me. My mother passed away when I was young.
00:21My husband left me when our youngest daughter was just a baby.
00:25He walked away and never came back. He never called. He never sent money. He forgot about us.
00:32Since then, I have been alone raising my three daughters.
00:36I have no family to help me. I have no big house. I have no extra money.
00:43I live in a small apartment in Willow Creek. Every month, I pay rent. Every month, I worry.
00:49I do not have a good job. I do not have a college degree. I do not have many choices.
00:55But I am strong. I never give up.
00:58I work as a cleaning lady. I do not have a company or agency.
01:01Every month, I look for homes and offices that need cleaning.
01:05I carry my own supplies. Then I work all day and often late into the night.
01:10I scrub floors, clean bathrooms, and take out trash.
01:14Some people are kind. Some people are rude.
01:17Some people don't pay, but I do not stop.
01:20I clean because I need money. I need to buy food.
01:24I need to buy clothes for my daughters. I need to pay rent.
01:27I work when I am tired. I work when I am sick. I work when I want to cry.
01:31Sometimes, I look at my daughters while they sleep.
01:33They are so peaceful. They are so, so beautiful.
01:37I touch their small hands. I kiss their foreheads.
01:40I whisper, I love you.
01:42I want to give them a good life. I want them to be happy.
01:44I want them to have everything I never had. But life is hard.
01:50One cold evening, I was walking my daughters home after a late cleaning job.
01:54The weather was terrible. The sky was dark. The rain was heavy.
01:59The sidewalks were icy.
02:01Sarah held my hand tightly.
02:03Huda and Lena walked close behind.
02:06Mama, I'm cold, Lena said. She was only five years old.
02:10I know, sweetheart. I said, we'll be home soon.
02:12I pulled her closer and wrapped my scarf around her.
02:16The street was quiet. The lights were dim.
02:19I held my daughters' hands tightly.
02:21My hands were shaking. I was nervous.
02:23Then suddenly, a bright light, a loud crash, a terrible pain.
02:28Everything went black.
02:30When I opened my eyes, I saw a white ceiling.
02:32I heard beeping sounds. I smelled medicine.
02:35I was in the hospital.
02:36I tried to sit up, but my body hurt.
02:39My head was heavy. My arms were weak.
02:41Then I remembered the accident.
02:43My daughters, where were they?
02:45I tried to speak.
02:46Sarah, Huda, Lena.
02:48My voice was dry. My throat hurt.
02:51A nurse came to me.
02:52She looked kind.
02:53She smiled softly.
02:54Don't move too much, she said.
02:55You were in a bad accident.
02:57My daughters, I whispered.
03:01Where are my daughters?
03:03She touched my hand gently.
03:05They are here.
03:07They are safe.
03:09Tears filled my eyes.
03:11I want to see them.
03:13A few minutes later, the door opened.
03:17Three small figures ran into the room.
03:20Mama, they cried.
03:22They hugged me.
03:24They held my hands.
03:25They kissed my face.
03:27I started crying.
03:29I held them as tightly as I could.
03:33The doctor came into the room.
03:35He looked serious.
03:37He had bad news.
03:40You have a broken leg, he said.
03:43You need surgery.
03:46You need time to heal.
03:47I felt panic.
03:49But I have to work.
03:51I have to pay rent.
03:53I have to feed my daughters.
03:55The doctor looked sad.
03:57You need to rest, he said.
04:00Then I remembered something worse.
04:03The cleaning supplies I had borrowed from a friend were destroyed in the accident.
04:08In the worst part, I had accidentally damaged the front of a luxury store during the fall.
04:13The owner wanted $20,000.
04:17I had nothing.
04:19I was broken.
04:20I covered my face with my hands and cried.
04:23My daughters held me.
04:25They cried too.
04:27I was lost.
04:28I had no hope.
04:30The next day, something unexpected happened.
04:34My story spread on the internet.
04:37People read about me.
04:38People saw pictures of my daughters.
04:40They saw how much I suffered.
04:43Many kind people sent money.
04:45They wanted to help me.
04:47Then one day, I got a phone call.
04:49A deep voice spoke.
04:52I heard your story, he said.
04:54I want to help you.
04:56I was afraid.
04:58Who are you?
04:59You will see soon, he said.
05:02Two days later, a group of people came to the hospital.
05:06They brought flowers.
05:07They brought warm clothes for my daughters.
05:09Then a young man walked in.
05:12He had kind eyes.
05:14He looked at me and smiled.
05:16He sat next to me.
05:18You don't know me, he said.
05:21But I know you.
05:22I was confused.
05:26Why do you want to help me?
05:29He smiled.
05:31Because I can.
05:33I started crying.
05:36I don't know what to say.
05:39He touched my hand.
05:42You don't have to say anything.
05:44A few days later, something unbelievable happened.
05:49The young man and his team paid for my hospital bills.
05:54I didn't have to worry anymore.
05:56But that was not all.
06:00One day, they took me and my daughters to a new place.
06:05It was a house.
06:07A big, beautiful house.
06:11This is for you, they said.
06:14I stared at them.
06:16I couldn't speak.
06:18I couldn't breathe.
06:19For me, I whispered.
06:24Yes, they said.
06:26You don't have to pay rent anymore.
06:29This is your home.
06:33I fell to my knees.
06:35I cried and cried.
06:37My daughters cried too.
06:39They hugged me.
06:41Is this real, I asked.
06:44Yes, they said.
06:45This is real.
06:46I held my daughters and whispered.
06:50We have a home.
06:53One day, the young man asked me.
06:56What is your biggest dream?
06:59I wiped my tears.
07:01I want to open a bakery.
07:04He smiled.
07:06Then let's make it happen.
07:09And he did.
07:11A few months later, I opened my own bakery.
07:14It had fresh bread, warm pastries, and happy customers.
07:20I was no longer a struggling cleaner.
07:23I was no longer a poor mother.
07:26I was a businesswoman.
07:28I was strong.
07:30I was happy.
07:32I will never forget that young man.
07:35He changed my life.
07:38He taught me something important.
07:40There are kind people in this world.
07:44There are people who want to help.
07:47And sometimes, miracles are real.
07:51I started with nothing.
07:54Now I have everything.
07:56A home.
07:57A job.
07:59And most importantly, a happy family.
08:02Thank you, my dear subscriber, for being here with me.
08:07Your support means everything to me.
08:10I hope this story touched your heart.
08:14Remember, no matter how hard life gets,
08:18kindness and hope can change everything.
08:22Stay strong.
08:23Believe in good people.
08:25And never lose faith in a better tomorrow.
