The story of one young girl by Ann Wood

Hello Angels
Today I will tell you my personal story.
Do you remember the crisis in Bulgaria 96 - 97?
Serbian embargo, lack of work, empty shops ……
I was 18 at the time and just moved out of the house because "I was already big"
I lived with a girlfriend and we both worked together in a kebab.
The winter kybapchinitsa closed and we were out of work. There was no job anywhere, let alone two inexperienced young girls.
The situation at one point went out of control. We had no money for food, electricity, basic hygiene supplies, such as priceless women's dressings, no hot water, laundry and cold water washing by hand, warming water with a rush, taking electricity from neighbors to wash. We slept at temperatures of about 5-10 grams and often sat with jackets inside. I will never forget an incident since then. We hadn't eaten in two days and we could probably kill someone for food. We found in the basement of a neighbor standing unlocked a jar of tomato salsa and a slice of bacon. We cut our onions into salsa and ate like crazy bread with thin slices of bacon and onion tomatoes. I haven't eaten in my life in a delicious meal. Even when I was in Monaco, Rome, Barcelona, ​​or anywhere. Of course, then everything was fine and here I am now 22 whole years later trying to help those who are now in this position. "A hungry sith don't believe it," people say, and I think that each of us had at least one moment in our lives when he was very hungry and had nothing to eat. Then it's gone. It always goes away, both bad and good. Life is endlessly cyclical. Today is good, tomorrow is bad. And then when it's bad, a person tells himself ah if anyone could help now. That's why we got together here. To help our fellow citizens now, when they are hungry and in crisis. Then they'll be fine. Life will encourage them. And we will be rescuers.
