Grandma Antigone from Kali Komi: A Story of Perseverance and Hope In the heart of Argithea, in the isolated village of Kali Komi, lives Mrs. Antigone, a woman whose life is a living testimony to the power of the human spirit. Born in 1950, at a time when Greece was struggling with poverty and isolation, Mrs. Antigoni learned from an early age what it means to fight for survival. He grew up in a village cut off from the rest of the world, where the road only arrived in 1980. Everyday life was a constant battle with nature and adversity. Work was done with the animals, plowing, carrying supplies, and even carrying wood for the household. Mrs. Antigone remembers carrying wood on her back from the age of 10, an image that shocks and inspires admiration for her strength and endurance. Education was a luxury she could not enjoy as her family did not have the resources to support her. School remained a dream, but Mrs. Antigone did not give up. She learned from life, from her experiences, from the people around her. Life in the village was hard, but also full of moments of solidarity and humanity. Women gave birth in the fields or in the cars that took them to the hospital, an image that seems incredible today. The current came slowly, but when it did, it brought with it light and hope. The diet was simple, based on the products of the garden and animals. Despite the difficulties, people managed to survive, create families, find meaning in life. Mrs. Antigone got married, had children, lived a life full of difficulties, but also joys. Today, she spends her days in the garden and kitchen of her home, proud of all she has accomplished. Her children are her wealth, her greatest success. The story of Lady Antigone is a story of perseverance, strength and hope. It is a reminder that even in the most difficult circumstances, man can find a way to survive, to create, to love. #παραδόση #ιστορίεσζωής #ελληνικό_χοριο #greekvillagelife ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ????⚠️It is prohibited to download, modify and use excerpts or entire videos for any reason.
