Do you think you have gotten more out of life by having 2 different cultures supporting you?
I think that I got more out of life by being an active member of two different cultures. Growing up as a Bangladeshi Australian has enabled me to have a greater understanding and acceptance of the world around us. It has expanded my horizons and broadened the way I look at the world. For some part it has decreased the amount of ignorance I once carried. I feel extremely lucky to be a part of both cultures as it doesn’t feel like I have lost the culture of my parents (regardless of what people might say) for I have simply attached my two cultures together to form a ‘modified for the better culture’ which I am sure so many Bangladeshi Australians share. Hey I love barbeques just as much as aloo bortha! Anika Razzaque, Brisbane _ |
