Preserving our Legacy Through Words

Relaxed and ready to interact

A Ritual

Every day, I sit down to write, finding solace and purpose in capturing the essence of our family's history. This daily ritual keeps my mind active, my memory sharp, and provides a meaningful way to pass the time. But beyond that, it serves a greater purpose: recording our oral history.

In an age where life moves at an unprecedented pace, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle, losing sight of the moments that truly matter. By documenting our family's journey, I'm reminded to stay grounded and not fall into the traps of worldly distractions.

Our Future Generations

To date, I have penned nearly 2,220 blog posts. Each entry is a piece of our collective story, a snapshot of the times we've lived through and the experiences that have shaped us. I hope that one day, my grandkids Gobind, Jania, Geet and their cousins will dive into these writings and discover the rich history of their heritage. They will see the world through our eyes, understand our values, and perhaps even learn from our mistakes.

Memories and Beyond

This endeavor isn't just about preserving memories; it's about building a bridge to the future. Each word, each story is a proof to the resilience, love, and values that define our family. And while I write for my own fulfillment, my greatest joy comes from knowing that these stories will endure, offering guidance and inspiration to those who come after us.

So, as I continue to write, I do so with a sense of purpose and pride. Our legacy is written in these words, and through them, our family will live on for generations to come.
