Clay Pots

Old Meena returned to Srirangam after decades, seeking what her grandmother Avvaiyar once cherished. In the temple bazaar, she found an artisan molding clay with weathered hands, creating vessels like those from ancient poems. Social networks had promised her fortune elsewhere, but those digital coins felt hollow. Here, watching earth transform into beauty, she remembered her roots mattered more than virtual validation. She bought every pot, funding his craft directly. That evening, sharing tea from one vessel with neighbors, Meena realized true wealth bloomed when communities nurtured their heritage together.
