If you could reflect on one thing:

Have you ever wondered if your parents are truly happy with the life they chose?

This letter is for anyone who has ever wanted to return the favor to their immigrant parents—not just with financial support or achievements, but by encouraging them to want more for themselves.

If you’ve ever longed for your parents to keep growing with you, to heal what was left unsaid, or to believe their story isn’t over yet—this one’s for you.
