I finished reading a book yesterday and hugged it as nostalgia took over me. I totally identified with the book. A foreign Chinese student, coming from an Eastern background with strong family values, tradition stronger than religion, shame, pride, and studying in London, but experiencing it by falling for a Brit 20 years her senior and going through so much. Finally coming out of the experience a new changed, agreeable, amiable, affable, mature, strong individual with a different perspective of life. I was able to identify with incidents, feelings, foods, places and I feel I've come a long way since then.
Allow me to share the passage that touched me the most:
"....the country where I became an adult, where I grew into a woman, the country where I also got injured, the country where I had my most confused days and my greatest passion and my most brief happiness [Insert FFWD 2009: Bondiyah, why? I never understood it] and my quiet sadness....."
