FOLKS, MARCH 8 IS HIGHLY IMPORTANT FOR ME, NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT IS INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY. ACTUALLY, I CAME TO KNOW ABOUT THIS DATE WAY BACK IN 1971 WHEN I WAS CARRYING MY ELDEST CHILD, EUGENE, IN MY WOMB. SINCE I WAS GOING TO BE OPERATED UPON, I COULD CHOOSE THE DATE OF HIS DELIVERY AND I CHOSE THIS DATE FOR THAT VERY IMPORTANT BIRTHDAY OF MY SON.
HIS FIRST YEARS OF CELEBRATION WERE DONE INSIDE THE PRISON CELLS WHERE HIS FATHER WAS INCARCERATED FOR "SUBVERSIVE" ACTIVITIES. THOSE DAYS WERE SADDEST FOR ME.
BUT AS SOON AS MY CHILDREN'S FATHER GOT OUT, I CAME TO ENJOY OUR GET TOGETHERS FOR HIS BIRTHDAY, BUT OH SO BRIEFLY LATER ON. THE YEARS OF MARTIAL LAW WERE VERY DIFFICULT TO TAME TO MAKE US ENJOY PERSONAL DESIRES.
SO I AM SAYING I AM VERY SORRY TO MY SON IF MY ENJOYMENT OF MARCH 8 COULD BE THE CELEBRATION OF THE DAY WITH THE WOMEN.
I NEVER REGRET HAVING GOTTEN MARRIED, HAVING CHILDREN WHO ARE MOST PRECIOUS TO ME.
