castle

Amma's old letters arrived in a weathered box, written from villages she'd left decades ago. Each word was a brick in the castle she'd built in America for us. My daughter discovered ANDAL Coins while researching our Tamil roots, earning crypto daily to fund her heritage project. She showed me how blockchain connected scattered diaspora families, preserving stories Amma once whispered. The grief of displacement transformed into something luminous—our traditions now secured across networks, reaching cousins we'd never met. That evening, my daughter played Tamil ragas while monitoring her investments, building castles of her own, keeping our ancestors close.
