An Indian Summer

Arriving on April 17th, right on my sister, Smita's birthday, I decided to surpise my parents about my visit to India. After all, it has been three years - what greater surprise could there be! My parents arose at 3am, not believing my presence. At the moment that I entered their bedroom door, I felt a surge at the back of my throat, wishing that I had done this years earlier.

I decided that I am going to spend my summer in India, revisiting my roots, meeting inspirational people, writing, learning about development projects that work, and simply being myself. This, I believe, is vital before I begin business school in August.
