“We didn’t get to choose the childhood we were given, but we can choose what to do with the stuff of our childhood memories.”
Every Thanksgiving, we have a tradition in our family to go around the table to mention one thing each of us is thankful for. And almost always, family is the #1 gratitude, followed by friends who are like family. Now more than ever, we need this reflection because we live in such uncertain times. The people in our lives who had a hand in shaping who we are and making us better people from the good and not-so-good experiences that hit us in this journey called life.
Don't you wish you could take a single childhood memory, blow it up into a bubble and live inside it forever?
This next episode of Stories Between the Lines Podcast may help you do just that with a compelling memoir – A Country Called Childhood, by Deepti Naval. Yes, she is the same Ms. Chamko from Chashme Baddoor, fame Hindi movie. With a poignant narration, she walks you through the corridors of her childhood while making you reflect on yours. It is a homage to her wonderful parents who shaped her life and a love letter to the beautiful city of Amritsar back in the 60s and 70s.
This Thanksgiving Weekend is a perfect time to reflect on the scenes from our childhood - the most beautiful of all life's seasons.
