Описание: Mother, to-day there comes back to mind the vermilion mark at the parting of your hair, the sari which you used to wear, with its wide red border, and those wonderful eyes of yours, full of depth and peace. They came at the start of my lifes journey, like the first streak of dawn, giving me golden provision to carry me on my way. The sky which gives light is blue, and my mothers face was dark, but she had the radiance of holiness, and her beauty would put to shame all the vanity of the beautiful. Every one says that I resemble my mother. In my childhood I used to resent this. It made me angry with my mirror. I thought that it was Gods unfairness which was wrapped round my limbs-that my dark features were not my due, but had come to me by some misunderstanding. All that remained for me to ask of my God in reparation was, that I might grow up to be a model of what woman should be, as one reads it in some epic poem. When the proposal came for my marriage, an astrologer was sent, who consulted my palm and said, This girl has good signs. She will become an ideal wife. And all the women who heard it said: No wonder, for she resembles her mother. I was married into a Rajahs house. When I was a child, I was quite familiar with the description of the Prince of the fairy story. But my husbands face was not of a kind that ones imagination would place in fairyland. It was dark, even as mine was. The feeling of shrinking, which I had about my own lack of physical beauty, was lifted a little; at the same time a touch of regret was left lingering in my heart. - Taken from The Home And The World written by Rabindranath Tagore
