He is the feisty activist sort you associate with those fighting for factory workers, labour laws, and against human injustice. He is fiercely honest, extremely well-read, finds refuge in cinema, art, books etc, yet remains highly aligned to his age-old ideology and political views which seem stubborn and childish to me as I grow older.
And yet, with his progressive views (back when progress was not yet popular!), his authenticity, his words of wisdom just when I needed them most, his way of making me his entire world— he has played a big part in making me who I am today.
So today after 24 years, I pen this story and thank my Baba, who taught me to not join the herd, to learn to swim against the current.
Happy Father's Day, Baba!
Thanks for Listening!
