The article describing Shiv Kumar Thakur’s remarkable journey of success and positive contribution to our society was so inspiring.

It provides hope in a current climate of negativity toward and suspicion of those from a different country or culture. This is what we should be striving toward as a society: inclusion and a welcoming attitude toward the “other."

There is so much we can learn from and understand about each other by embracing our differences instead of fearing them.
