Melinda Gates, who is the wife of the richest man in the world, Bill Gates, was recently in Malawi for a visit. She said during her stay there, she joined women to fetch water and she carried 20 liters of water and it was tough for her.
She said the woman in the middle, Chrissy, carried 40 liters of water and was very impressed at how the women in the picture were able to do so effortlessly. See photos below...


She shared this photo and captioned it:
Helping wash the dishes during my homestay in Malawi. Women spend much of the day cooking and then cleaning up. It’s a reminder that it’s a lot more time consuming to do dishes when you can’t just turn on a faucetYou know, it gets to a point in your life when you are rich and famous, affluent and all. You are literately at the peak of your life and have so much money and you just don't know what to do with it. Well, that will be just a good time to remember people in the other parts of the world. Whether you are a pop star, A-list actor, international model, business mogul. Its good to go on vacation to Ibiza, Brazil, Mauritus or Bahamas; shopping in Paris or Dubai, lavish in Las Vegas and so on, but it is more important that you reach out to people in the third world.
You can't be too generous in one life time!
Thank you for this comment. It applies to all women regardless of where they may be living.
