Her Only Daughter


She was a maid servant. What was her name?. I remember Shakespeare at this situation. Once he wrote- " What is in name?" However, I would like to name her for writing purpose. She was Laxmi. she had the only child, her daughter, Shradha. Shradha had successfully completed her 10+2 degree in Arts. She was giving tutions to the students upto 10th standards. she was earning a little money but it was sufficient for her daily needs.

Laxmi was always worry about her daughter's marriage. Her only daughter had reflected several lessons for understanding the so-called successful life. She was not educated but had experiences. She felt that a daugther was always a headache for a poor family like her. As Shardha was not a girl with white skin, her marriage was directly related to the proportion of amount in dowry. Laxmi had only one pair of saris but she was very enthusiastic to wed her daughter. she managed a boy who was illiterate but had paternal lands of about 3and half Kattha. She was ready to give that boy the sum of 3 lakhs, the whole amount that she had earned in life to wed with her daughter.



A girl without father, without fair skin and with full potentials to do every good thing has to face the problem of natural development in the modern and advance times.

STRANGE!!!
