553. A perfect daughter
No man can ever have a daughterWho always thinks of her father’s height.
No woman can ever have a daughter
Who always thinks of her mother’s light.
No world can ever have a daughter
Who always feels its excruciating pangs.
No truth can ever have a daughter
Who always adores its inevitable victory.
Sri Chinmoy, The Wings of Light, part 12, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1974
