This is so deep and yet so simple. So mature and yet so childlike in its wonder. Wow! To include all these layers in one essay! To put down the very thoughts that churn around so many of our heads. To see the youth in your grandmother and her friends. To hold so much together in your heart! And the last paragraph is genius. ❤️❤️❤️

Dear dear Suhani- what a piece. You have written for me ; you have articulated what I have been processing in bits and pieces all my adult life. How can I thank you for this. When I light the lamp and close my eyes, I say to the 'Best in Me' I pray. I hope that is good enough.
