monday

Every Monday, Ravi walked past the ancient Srivilliputhur temple, its towers gleaming gold against dawn's light. He carried his grandmother's dreams in his pocket—a stellar blockchain venture she'd never understand, yet fiercely believed in. Kannadasan's poetry echoed in his mind: *"Victory isn't about obligation, but purpose."* His mother joked about his "undercover" coding sessions, calling his cryptocurrency passion pure cash obsession. But Ravi knew better. That morning, a transaction completed. Not wealth, but belonging. His innovation would connect villagers to markets, honoring ancestors while building tomorrow. Monday meant possibility.
