I knew today that my child doesn't love me as much as I love my mother!
Maybe it is wrong to compare my love with what others can.
But still it hurts!
Maybe a child can only limit the mind to elevate the horizon to its boundaries.
Maybe I haven't given enough reasons to look up on me or put me on a pedestal.
But still it hurts!
For I don't want to be on a pedestal but in her heart, to reach out to me
when she finds herself in distress, to seek my embrace when on flight!
But still it hurts!
Knowing I have fallen short in my own perception of what I was!

U speak my mind.
This is true valli as a mother of two children i feel this sometimes.
I agree with you Srivalli. We, parents of this generation have this fear.
I have wondered about this. But I think in the child's mind the love is deep, even if it is not expressed. Or I believe so.
