Last week I was at an Iranian/Kurdish Norooz party with my family enjoying all the delightful food from many different regions in Iran and Kurdistan. And now I am planning the family get together meal for Easter and it will be a mixture of Iranian and English food. Something to suit everyone's tastes!
It makes me feel very proud of my family and the way we are comfortable with both cultures and I think what a wonderful gift to pass on to the younger members of this family who will grow into adults with open minds and experiences of diverse customs and traditions.
I wish that everyone could open their hearts and minds and enjoy difference as we do. It would make the world a much more positive place for us all to live in.
