“I don't know, said Tej. Like, I don't feel any different than I did when I was twenty. Still in Nepal. Now, I'm here. The years keep passing, but I feel the same. That's what other people are for, said the son. They're part of the litmus test. Right, said Tej. Maybe they're the ones who help us see ourselves clearer. And helping them is helping ourselves.”
