What does your heritage mean to you?
Heritage can mean many different things. To me, it means what has been passed down to me by my ancestors and elders. Being from India, family and being together is central to our heritage. This means taking care of one another, helping when in need, and respect, amongst others. These qualities are an important part of me and how I go about my daily life.
