A woman struck positivity in people's hearts when she shared how she started from humble beginnings to having a space she can properly call home.

Taking to her TikTok account, app user @mmabotshelomacwaca shared with netizens a look at the single-room living area where she used to live. The local woman had no proper bed and possibly used a thin mattress to make herself comfortable on the floor.

At the foot of the makeshift bed was a camping chair near a power outlet and a small heater to keep herself warm. On the other side of the room, @mmabotshelomacwaca showed an area where she kept her shoes, a suitcase filled with clothes and other bags for storage.

The video then cuts to @mmabotshelomacwaca's current living situation, which is a step up from the previous one. She now has a bed and a stylish headboard, a TV, an L-shaped couch, a coffee table, a rug, and more to give her place a homey effect.
