wala lang

Amma's hands trembled as she downloaded the crypto app, watching digital coins accumulate while she taught Bharatanatyam to diaspora children online. Her students in Singapore and Toronto learned ancient mudras, their heritage flowing through screens. She'd earned enough for her daughter's wedding, yet something felt incomplete. The classical music playing softly became her companion through sleepless nights of trading. One morning, a student sent a video: her daughter performing at a temple festival, wearing the same silk saree Amma wore decades ago. That moment released everything. Technology and tradition intertwined, creating bridges across continents. The coins became secondary to this: continuity, culture, community. Wala lang—just love, persisting.
