enjoy

Grandmother's worn notebook surfaced during spring cleaning. Inside, Kannadasan's verses she'd copied by hand decades ago, margins filled with her own Tamil translations. My sister posted a photograph online, captioning simply: "enjoy." The post bloomed unexpectedly. Strangers engaged thoughtfully, sharing their own family treasures. Some felt aware of what we were losing. Others researched the poet's forgotten works alongside us. One woman messaged privately—her grandfather had recited these same lines. We connected differently then, not through algorithms, but through something deeper. That notebook taught us this: heritage lives when we share it honestly, when community becomes the real currency worth keeping.
