From India back to the US
We have little in common, little to say, and yet I fear the day when my offspring and theirs will no longer feel connected to a place like this, or even to each other

I was reading All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergaten, by Robert Fulghum when I found the following words very appropriate to describe Mitra. "...there are places we all come from--deep-rooty-common places--that make us who we are. And, we disdain them or treat them lightly at our peril. We turn our backs on them at the risk of self-contempt. There is a sense in which we need to go home again--and can go home again. Not to recover home, no. But to sanctify memory."
