One thing I have greatly admired about specifically with ABCD Indian Hindus is how you are able to assimilate and integrate and be extremely successful career wise and f@_m-ily wise and juggling everything like clockwork and yet, still be extremely religious and devout practicing Hindus at the same time.
This cannot be said for other Desi or any other Asian or Non-White communities. A lot of times when others assimilate and integrate, it comes at the expense of giving up their own cultural and religious practices. For example: A lot of Hispanic Americans tend to lose Catholicism and end up embracing other Churches. Same goes for a lot of Asian Americans. I have seen many other Asian Americans who end up not speaking their languages and often try to go out of their way to act like White Christian f@_m_ilies. Desi Muslim Americans for example don’t embrace any of the cultural traditional practices and are shamed to do so and convert to Christianity to better fit in and integrate into society.
This is definitely not something I see with ABCD Indian Hindus at all. I am very impressed and inspired by how you are able to juggle everything so well and yet still maintain Hindu practices and still remain as proud Hindus. You are cultured and you don’t give a f about what other people think! That is something I find very inspiring. I honestly wish other Desis and even other Asians and Non Whites would be able to do the same!
