I wonder whether it is right to do it; will it bring anything good, or will it be better to let the their ship sail its own course?

If there is one reason why I will not make a good mother is that I am too overprotective. No, I’m not talking about motherhood, but about people around me.

They’ll learn, let them fall, and get up on their own effort. That will make them stronger and wiser. They will cope, better than me and everyone else. No lesson is better than one’s experience.

I can only stand on the sidelines and watch. I can only pray that the world will not be tough on them as it was for me, and they won’t falter, or there won’t be anyone else to blame but me, me who did not take their hands and lead them all the way.

They’ll be good, they have to be.
