This is an awesome piece, Champa! An intriguing comparison of past and present….one would think Charus in 21st century are smart enough to see inward for strength, but sadly that’s often not the case. This piece & similar, in all genres that exude empowerment is much needed in today’s time. I look forward to reading your next piece.
