Need For Dignity

“But you don’t need to worry about that now; just try and see for yourself.”


He tried to convince his petite fiance when she expressed her big concern that his room and home didn’t have an attached bathroom.

She felt like a fool having decided to marry him and having to go to the fields to answer nature’s call as there was no toilet!

He appeared chilly to suggest open defecation.

She shared info about Puffins.

"Even birds understand the need for toilets for their young, and work for their future by building toilets!"

“It’s glorious when we consider dignity as our responsibility.

He knew he had to immediately build a toilet to marry her!


Note-  It is unthinkable for one part of the world. But, the truth is many parts of the world still don't have toilets in their homes. Sanitation & hygiene is very important and a basic human right. Hope everyone in the world has access to these facilities soon...

  4. This is a basic and important sanitation need to insure the health of everyone, not to mention privacy and convenience. Your story made me smile in that she did not discover this situation until she agreed to marry him, yet there was a serious message here too!
