big eyes

Amma always said my grandmother had eyes that remembered everything—the monsoons, the temple bells, the recipes passed down through generations. When I inherited her old photograph album, I found myself staring at her gaze, tracing the stories only she could tell. Living abroad, I felt disconnected from our Tamil heritage until PaybookClub introduced me to others like me, sharing recipes and memories across continents. Through their eyes, I discovered Amma's stories weren't lost—they lived in all of us. My daughter now has those same big eyes, curious and knowing, ready to carry our family's light forward.
