A White Heron: The Flying Independent Soul of Little Sylvia
Process of growth is not always with pleasant surprise to learn new things, but sometimes can be a pressure of compromising with the world around us and abandoning something innocent deep within our soul. This is particularly for Sylvia, a tiny little girl who lived in a conservative village, during whose period of life women tend to submit to men ’s will.

The white heron in this story is a metaphor of the innocence Sylvia possesses. In this story, the life of the white heron is under threat, and the innocence wit
