Spirit of India

I
I am a Christian
Also proud Indian
Why?
I love Jesus, Only King
He's unafraid of India, anything
Try!
Though born in Africa
Loving my darker Mom, and India!
Naturally!
You may analogize "ADOPTION"
A child wants both parent and guardian
Usually!
England trampled India, was forgiven
But each Indian lives The Resurrection
The spirit (work ethic) is rising, risen ...
Generation after generation
Though I, a poor representation

Hello Anil. Please allow me to let your words stand because there is nothing I could say with understanding. I will not pretend to know or to be an expert on other countries or heritages. I consider myself blessed to be from the US and from italian heritage. Just allow me to say however I have respect for all mankind. Once again you have the ability to leave us with thought and reflection. Namaste Shalom Love and Blessings always. (smile smile smile)

Namaste` Anil. I just had the pleasure of writing about India-- "In Silence, A Motherland" 4/13/23. You play similar roles to Mother Teresa, a shining star.
