The duty of the mother lies in
nourishing the child's everyday needs.
She does not focus her attention
in noticing the change in the physical
developments in the child, everyday -
instead, she focuses her attention on
her efforts to bring about the change.
Yes! Once you believe in your efforts,
the change will come - the change for the better -
the change that will symbolize one's growth.
Know, My dears, that with every effort,
one will experience a subtle change that
may go unnoticed.
With every effort that shows its success,
one will only aspire for more.
Spiritual growth is stunted,
only when one is impatient and anticipates
quick results, when one lacks the seriousness
in his own efforts, and when one sets
a final limitation for his change.
