Last week I visited my Bà Ý (great aunt) one last time to say goodbye to her. She was a pivotal figure in my life and today, I'm sharing personal stories and lessons learned from her. I reflecting on the profound impact she had on my upbringing and the foundational lessons she imparted. These lessons include the importance of independence, enjoying simple mornings, the essence of generosity, the power of being present, unconditional love, acceptance, and creating a safe space for mistakes. I share how these core values have shaped my identity and outlook on life and reflect on the lasting influence of loved ones on our personal journey and the legacy we carry forward.
