Champaklal Speaks

Kamala’s Portrait

1951-04-12

Kamala's portrait done by Mother had faded. I took it to her and showed it saying: “Look Mother, what has happened!”

Mother: “The drawing is very pretty.” She said it as if it had been done by somebody else!

C: “Can you do something, Mother?”

Mother: “Champaklal, but it is very difficult.”

C: “Mother, nothing is difficult for you. The question is whether you would like to do it or not.” She smiled and immediately started working upon it. When she finished, I saw how happy her expression was. “How is it now?” she said.

C: “Mother, wonderful!”
