Stories
“There was a woman who had only one daughter and she died.”
The mother used to spend all day and night crying. The daughter came to her one night as she was crying and she said "Do not be crying because every tear you shed you are putting a red needle through my soul". I am all right otherwise."The mother did not cry from that out.
