Most people move from one house to another at some point in their lives. It’s a milestone in life, yet not everybody moves to the opposite side of the world, and few people do it twice.

For example, in India, in schools at least, you don’t have a lot of privileges, you don’t

it all and not leave you even when times get rough, which is why this diversity makes a great impact and shapes me into the person I am.

The Burns family is the first Black family I met in the ward. Albert Burns Junior was cool because he had swagger, as is the contemporary way to address it, though my acumen for slang is less than impressive. Albert Junior was like Dexter, cool; however, his cool manifested itself differently in my estimation—and it is my estimation as I am he who relates this tale. Adulation radiated from me towards Albert because he grew up in the church with both parents, and I wanted that. So, I watched him—errantly
