The most humbling experience of my India trip this year was a visit to my Dad’s maternal village – Gomat, Uttar Pradesh (India).

?? Humbling because I was suddenly very aware of my parents’ hard work and persistence to give the wonderful life we have today.
? Humbling because it is so easy for me to take my privileges for granted.
??‍♀️ Humbling because it not only made me aware of my roots but also my wings.

?? As I get ready to leave my motherland…
?? …and head to a land far away that I now call home,
I carry with me these life lessons that I credit my parents for –
? whenever there’s a choice pick values over wealth,
❣️harbor love for family and humanity not love for materials and
??‍♀️ cultivate individuality of thinking and not of attitude
