My Home
I come from a land
Where something holy is everything
Where religion is the supreme ideology of life
And, yes, there are a billion gods, like Greek mythology
I come from a land
A whirlwind of colors mark the start of any celebration
Holi, Diwali, Navratri
Any day is a day for a gathering
I come from a land
Shaped by pure knowledge
The more you know, the more you gain
Acceptance, power, respect
Otherwise goodluck
I come from a land
Success is measured in percentages
My best is never enough
Choice is not a choice at all
Female equity is not equal at all
I come from a land
That I will always love
That I will always come back to
That will forever be my home
