Kindle Notes & Highlights
Sita remembered her mother’s words as they had witnessed the mourning of the elephant matriarch. Don’t look back. Look to the future. Sita whispered softly to the cremation pyre. ‘I will look back, Maa. How can I not? You are my life.’
Find partners you can trust; who are loyal to your cause. Personal loyalty is not important. But they must be loyal to your cause.
‘I am not sure if the poor are always loyal. Those who are capable of loyalty will be loyal. Those who are not will not, no matter what I may do for them.
‘Happiness is not an accident. It is a choice. It is in our hands to be happy. Always in our hands. Who says that we can have only one soulmate? Sometimes, soulmates want such radically different things that they end up being the cause of unhappiness for each other.
Grief overwhelms you when you are alone. But when you find your soulmate, you can handle anything.
‘Life is not only about what we want, but also about what we must do. We don’t just have rights. We also have duties.’
