Landlord Kicks Girl Out for Sheltering Dogs, Begs Her for Job When Tables Turn — Story of the Day

After losing her only parent and being raised in foster care, Tara struggled to find hope in the world. However, she kept to her kindhearted nature, even after being homeless. She finally got her first apartment, but she was later kicked out by her landlord. A year later, he would be seeking her help.

Before she died, Tara’s mother always taught her that one of life’s most underrated blessings was hope. She would say:

“Life’s a roller coaster, and hope is your lap bar. Without hope, you have nothing to hold you down on em’ sharp curves.”

Tara was only 10 years old when her mother passed away. She never knew her father, so she was brought up in foster care.

Tara later found a job as a waitress at a local cafe. She was very grateful for the job and proud of herself.

For most people, it may not have seemed like much, but after her strenuous journey, it was a victory.

Tara worked long 12-hour shifts. She gave her job her all, working towards renting out a house she had been eying for a while.

She often passed it on her way to the shelter and noted the “for rent” sign in the yard. So, once she got a job, she decided to enquire about renting it out.
