Father-in-law left to return to Pakistan today, leaving a gap in our home where tolerance, wisdom and fun resided. We will all miss him like crazy; he has been the patient target of our teasing for the last five months. I hail from a conservative Muslim family and my parents are reserved, respectful and very […]

I have long been attracted by minimalism. It is one of my life goals to give away what I have and have next to nothing by the time I die.
