and teacher sukhi you gave great advice!

YET AGAIN GREAT discussion manai👏 here are my two cents😳

I don't think it's just the Punjabi's becoming too modern it's EVERYONE but I guess we say punjabis because that's our community and we have been exposed more to Punjabi's than any other community😛 I not taking digs at anyone here I'm gonna say this for everyone including me- I don't think it matters where we are born or when. The only thing that matters is whether we really want to get closer to our roots or not😳 My dad came to canada when he was 6 and trust me he's like a total white-wash while both my brothers are the same AND my sis as well but I'm like none of them😳 I would say I'm more closer to my roots than most of cousins living in India and other countries😛 It all basically depends on WHETHER you wanna learn or not. No one can force you to learn neither can anyone force you NOT to learn😊 The only person who controls all this is YOU so before blaming anyone else just look inside yourself first😳 My mum started teaching me Punjabi even before I started Kinder Garten😃 and I am STILL taking punjabi classes *balle-balle*😆 I can PROUDLY say I speak punjabi with the least amount of accent and fluently read it as well😃 although I'm still taking classes for the writing part😳 but don't worry I'm working on it😃

Now I don't think being mordern is bad at all like I'm a VERY modern person but I also believe you should NEVER forget your roots😳 I can be a full pind di kuri and then be a Canadian the next very moment😳😆

P.S Oyeeee mere sukhi veer kole bhi thora jeha dimaag haiga😲 I'm SHOCKED to the core☺️☺️☺️

apparently indians in general think its cool to be modern and thus are thinking, eating, acting, and dressing like westerners

for example when all these indian stars are interviewed on tv, they are talking in their fake english accents

its good to be modern but dont forget your roots 😊

true true very true😃!
