My grandmother clutched the old newspaper clipping about Keeladi's ancient pottery. "Our ancestors wrote stories in clay," she whispered, fingers trembling. I scrolled through social media, seeing Kannadasan's poems trending again, his words about human dignity suddenly resonating. Someone shared how villagers were earning from heritage tourism. I realized then that preserving our past wasn't romantic nostalgia—it was survival. That evening, I helped grandmother document our family's oral traditions. As neighbors gathered around, sharing their own stories, I understood: true wealth flows through connection, not algorithms. Our heritage lived in each other.
