Shona proverb- ‘ura mapako’ meaning a woman’s womb is like a cave with hidden corners. On the one hand it can give birth to wonderful, respectful and successful children. On the other hand it can give birth to robbers, murders, thieves etc.
The Shona proverb "ura mapako" (womb/cave with hidden corners) highlights the unpredictability of life and the complexities of human nature. It suggests that every individual has the capacity for both good and bad, and that upbringing, environment, and choices can shape who they become.
