WEEPING MOTHER
Once upon a time there was a woman who gave birth to three daughters. She named the first daughter Raining season, the second daughter Dry season and the third daughter Harmattan. The woman loved them when they were young and hated them when they grew up because of their mischievous characters. The first daughter (loved her mother very much to the extent she can provide her mother whatever she desired. But only problem she had, is that she cries always both morning afternoon and night which affected the comfort of her mother. Her second daughter (Dry season) always happy. She hardly cry like the first daughter (Raining season) but she was very stingy. She hardly give out any of her belonging and because of that her mother hated her. The third daughter (Harmattan) was neither caring nor stingy but always make her mother to look bold and ugly before people. The unbearable characters of these three daughters made their mother to die prematurely thinking that the death could solve restlessness but unknown to her that death can terminate life both cannot solve the problem of man.
