From Skopje to India

From the author of the award-winning story, Where the Rain Falls, comes another heartfelt epic, From Skopje to India.A journey of love, culture, and discovery across continents unfolds.I wished to touch the readers with a story that gripped them from the start. I wanted to talk about the displaced and vulnerable, but instead, in writing this story, I learned about the wistful hearts of people who yearned to live life the same as the upper class. The clear disparity lies between the lines of my story, and I only wish you could see them through my eyes - shobanaThe Year was 1929 when Majaorie Yakob pursued a destined journey…The green-eyed beauty was on a journey of Acceptance to Change.One day, I pondered about the works of Mother Teresa. I didn’t want to write her story, so I crafted one designed by a life she led, not in entirety, but in which I showed how she pursued the journey to Calcutta to uplift lives. The first thing she did was to live amongst them and conform to their way of living.Majaorie Yakob did the same. She listened to the Baba's wise counsel: Learn to talk, dress, and act like the people of India. He gave her a place to stay when she first arrived in New Delhi. He taught her Hindi, the broadly spoken language of the locals there. She found beauty amongst the simplest.Home is where the heart is, and Mother Teresa found her way to a place where her heart could someday be at peace as she accomplished her call to mission. Although she was born in Skopje, she called Calcutta her home. She lived a life of love and compassion, chose an incredible journey of service, and found fulfilment.The values Mother Teresa embodied motivated me to write this beautiful story. As I explored deeper, I found clarity in other teachings and ways of life.Majaorie found awe, love and spiritual enlightenment as she travelled across the vast land to reach Calcutta. There, in the poorest state of India, she found a way to teach the children of the poor.Read her travelling journal: the incredible people she met on the way, no
