“The saddest” is a story about two widows. One was blessed by the God with three children and the other had no children.
The one who was blessed with children never appreciated God for this blessings –rather, she accused God of giving her children that will kill her. Her statement came from the background of how troubled her children have been and the pain their deviant character has caused her.
For the other woman without children, she never blamed the God for her “situation” rather, she blesses God and still prays daily for God to give her one.
The expressions of men you’ll agree is a puzzle to God– What really will make humanity happy?
