A widow is a woman whose spouse has died, while a widower is a man in that situation. The state of having lost one's spouse to death is termed widowhood. These terms are not applied to a person after he or she becomes divorced from their former spouse, though they may sometimes be used after the former spouse has died.
This term "widowhood" can be used for either sex, at least according to some dictionaries, but the word widowerhood is also listed in some dictionaries. Occasionally, the word viduity is used. The adjective form for either sex is widowed.
The treatment of widows around the world varies, but unequal benefits and treatment generally received by widows compared to those received by widowers globally has spurred an interest in the issue by human rights activists.
In societies where the husband is the sole provider, his death can leave his family destitute. The tendency for women generally to outlive men can compound this, since men in many societies marry women younger than themselves. In some patriarchal societies, widows may maintain economic independence. A woman would carry on her spouse's business and be accorded certain rights, such as entering guilds. More recently, widows of political figures have been among the first women elected to high office in many countries, such as Corazón Aquino or Isabel Martínez de Perón.

By tradition, she is unceremoniously left at a bare and impoverished widows' ashram, beside the Ganges during monsoon season. The ashram's leader pimps out Kalyani, a young and beautiful widow, for household funds. Narayan, a follower of Gandhi, falls in love with her.

Amid all this water, is rebirth possible or does tradition drown all?

Black Widow vs Praying Mantis: Spiders infest my house If you don’t yet know the story, I started finding black widows in my house, and I have plenty of other videos talking about that. In this video I show the results of following a comment I received about using a praying mantis to get rid of the spiders. It did not work out at all; the mantis wanted nothing to do with a deadly black widow spider. WARNING!!! Poisonous spiders are in my house! If you are afraid of spiders, DO NOT WATCH this video.

Widowed with kids
all my time i spent
the widow said as she bent
giving what meant everything
and all my company
are memories whispering
down by the forest
down by the forest
all the time in the world
is yours, she said as she went
with her thoughts on her dreams
i hardly knew you
yet i packed all i valued
and followed like
dust in the wind
can you give me sanctuary
when the babbling brook
runs dry?
can you give me understanding
when there's nothing left
to try?
what about your brothers
and all you had for lovers?
did they blow away like candles
in the night?
i saw you begging
on the day of the wedding
she don't wander by herself
where are
your sons and your daughters?
can you give me sanctuary
when the babbling brook
runs dry?
can you give me understanding
when there's nothing left
to try?
all my time i spent
the widow said as she bent
giving what meant everything
and all my company are
memories whispering
down by the forest
down by the forest
