💙 Grateful Friday | Our Hearbeat
In this Grateful Friday reflection, Looking back at the very first sight of our CrossLink Ikigai Chellakutti, Manoj, at 12 weeks during our ultrasound on March 6, 2012. Fast forward to today, and he is stepping into the 9th grade, building advanced custom computers, and continuing to amaze us every single day with his bright mind. Time truly flies, but a mother's love is unconditional and eternal. Our true heartbeat - Kannaana Kanney. ✨👶🏽💙

💙 Grateful Friday | Service • Gratitude • Unconditional Love
In this Grateful Friday reflection, Mrs. Hema Satoshi shares the people who have inspired her life's journey. From childhood, Mother Teresa inspired her through unconditional love, compassion, and service, nurturing her dream of becoming a physician dedicated to helping others. Although life led her to pursue engineering instead, her commitment to serving people has remained unchanged.
Mrs. Hema Satoshi also expresses heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Satoshi Asami, whom she first knew professionally before they later became life partners. She shares how his encouragement, kindness, and unwavering support during one of the most challenging periods of her life strengthened her personally and academically, including her continued studies at Rice University.
This reflection reminds us that inspiration shapes our dreams, while gratitude strengthens our journey. By serving others with compassion and appreciating those who support us, we can create a more caring and connected world.
