You made me so emotional with this story, Anannya! I am glad you were there with her, and at least you hugged her, maybe that's what she needed. Small acts of kindness go a long way!

Family, a home and good health are the mantras for success, I completely agree! The rest is futile, the hustle, the constant pressure to be better than others, everything is transient! Once again, I am deeply touched by this piece. It'll stay with me for a long, long time. Take care!
