This was supposed to be near their 25th anniversary, but its much later than that. I can’t believe I missed it. I promise to keep this short and not too emotional. I have been reflecting pretty much on how amazing they are, my parents that is. People here always say: how can your parents send you this far? It gets me thinking – how can they? Every time I do some new and adventurous, which sometimes is more than once a day, I have to stop and appreciate the freedom I have been given. I would not have been able to take one step out of the house if it hadn’t been for the unyielding support of my parents. They have always let me explore what I want to. This time they have crossed the limit. I’m not even sure I would have let me go if I had been in their shoes, if that makes any sense at all.
So I just wanted to give every single bit of credit I receive to my parents. And for the record, since I am currently self-sufficient, this is in no way a plea for financial support! No seriously, it isn’t.

Neha,
You truly have amazing parents. I can imagine how hard it must have been for them to let you venture out in your adventures so far away from them :) But also understand you are making them proud at what you are doing and achieving in India.
Hope all's well on your end. Which part of India are you in now? Drop me a line or two in my email when you get a chance :) Take care and stay well.
happy 25th anniversary to your parents! they are so blessed to have a daughter like you who appreciates them :)
Don't push it!! It's been so long that we are almost getting ready to come over or recall you.
Seriously, miss you a lot.

Hey,
I was thinking about you today and decided to check your blog which I see hasn't been updated in ages :-P But very understandably as you're probably busy doing exciting things in India! But I just wanted to say hi and see what was up :)
