Garima’s Settlement Story

Being the youngest girl, I learnt a lot from my sisters and mother, and also realized how we all were different individuals yet the same at heart. Although we were a family we all had different preferences whether it was our careers, clothing, style or even food. That helped me understand how every person is different and what a joy it is to celebrate their individuality. It made me compassionate, understanding and accepting as a human being.
