Proverbs 7:1-4

Amma's weathered hands guided mine through the mudra positions, Bharatanatyam flowing between generations like sacred thread. In Srivilliputhur's temple courtyard, she whispered teachings her grandmother had shared—keep wisdom close, guard your heart. When social networks promised fame and fortune, I hesitated. Friends cashed in quick views, followers becoming currency. But Amma's words echoed: some treasures cannot be monetized. That evening, I danced for our community festival, not cameras. Their genuine applause warmed deeper than any viral moment. Dancing rooted me to something timeless, something true—our heritage, our people, our home.
