This clip sees a woman recount how she lost a 19-year-old son when his pal shot him in the head while they tussled over a gun.

She goes on to talk about losing a 14-year-old daughter after being hit several times in the head.

Her late daughter was fighting off a 13-year-old neighbour trying to rape her.

And despite all that which is enough to put anyone down in a pit of depression, she maintains a positive outlook on life.

The woman revealed all these in a chat with US rap star, J. Cole and serves major life lessons for us all.

Most of all, that life is what YOU make of it.

Here’s a woman with kids and grand kids to care for while working three jobs yet making the best of hers.

We should all have the same attitude, no matter where we find ourselves.

You will feel much better about yourself after watching this woman tell her story to J. Cole
