For years and years, I have thought about using a platform to speak about my experience growing up in a large Indian household. The pressure within the Indian culture can be incredibly strong and at times, it pushed me to make decisions that I am not proud of.
They say that hindsight is 20/20, and they are right. I am one of the several people who would say that if I could go back and do it all over again, I would. I would study harder, I would watch what I was eating, I would work out more, but most importantly, I would make sure that I would be more honest about who I was to my family, but also to myself.
This platform serves a way for me to share my stories with you. I always thought that I was the only one out there who was living through these experiences, but then I realized that so many people have been in my shoes. So, if by sharing my stories and thoughts, I can help you love yourself more and help you feel like you have made the right decisions in life, then I have served my purpose.
So I hereby welcome you to The Tale of Two Cultures.
