"A true man" said my mother.
Once my mother said : "apart from a proud career, and good health, I also wish for you, to have a true Man by your side, forever and always."
In return to this, I asked with utmost curiosity : "What does a true Man mean ? someone with a towering physique, and an enigmatic power to shield me from every pain that comes my way ? just like the heroes of a fancy movie ? "
My mother smiled for a long minute and said : "That's neither what I mean, nor is it a realistic possibility. I want you to have a man, who might not be a charming prince, but will certainly bear a heart to love a lady, with consistency; A man who wouldn't protect you from the pains on your way, but won't leave your side while you deal with it. I wish you a Man, who will be your better half, in all sense, not just in say."
