A mother heart fears

This is where her destiny calls, and it scares me a little.

My child will grow up, and enter the world of infinite opportunities. The ships, captains and marine life all invite her to come and explore …. and achieve something out of the ordinary. She is fascinated by water, and is being trained in all the required skills, by the best coaches available. Power to her!

And yet, a mother’s heart fears. I cannot forget the last few words written by a seer-astrologer on her birth –

“Mysterious death – perhaps by drowning – where the world will not know what happened.”
