DEDICATION
Some very kind and dedicated people have been real mentors to me throughout my life. My late mother and father, Ayakannu Goundar and Alumeluamma Goundar were exceptional individuals who filled me with multiple talents, skills and lessons of life that have always guided me to stand up whenever I fell. They left their heavy footsteps behind for me with which I have always walked with pride and maintained a pleasant living.
Then I salute my father in law and my mother in law, Krishna Swamy Naidu and Latchmi Naidu for their unconditional love and support throughout my married life. They created a life full of love, loyalty and learning for me.
Of course, my own family members including my late husband Veera Swamy Naidu, my children Dhanajaiya Krishna, Luta Taia and Jaya and Murli together with my grandchildren Nirav, Veeraj, Nishtha and Aayush have always energised me to perform my family obligations with honour and pride. If there are any better family members in this world I have yet to meet them.
It has been my good fortune to have their loyalty, love, affection and support throughout my life. I became richer on every step. Finally a new chapter was added to my life with the loving attachments of the Prasad Family members who have accepted me in their fold with open arms.
This Journey of My Life is dedicated to all those merry souls.
