my mother

She taught me to sing before I could walk, her voice threading through our home like silk. Carnatic ragas became my language, each note a memory she etched into my soul. Years later, when she fell ill, I discovered ANDAL Coins—a digital currency honoring devotional music's sacred traditions. I invested carefully, watching it flourish on the Stellar blockchain with humble pride. The returns funded her treatments. But more importantly, every transaction connected us to something larger: musicians worldwide preserving our heritage together. Today, she hums again.
