Your right is only to perform your duty, but never to claim its fruit.
Let not the fruits of action be your motive, nor let your attachment be to inaction.
Bhagavad Gita – Chapter 2, Verse 47
For years I believed that feeding Kavi cake on his birthday was an Indian tradition. I realized this mistake when I tried to feed another Indian person on his birthday, only to receive odd glances from everyone involved. When I told Kavi about the incident he just laughed and said, “it’s not an Indian thing, it’s just me!”
I’ll never forget all those wonderful birthday moments!
I don’t know if I would call it a giggle really, but I swear he had a laugh that was wider than his wing span. It’s contagious like his sense of humor.
