Mango Dreams (movie)
We invite you to watch the movie 'Mango Dreams': "Concerned that dementia will soon steal his most cherished memories, a Hindu doctor hires a Muslim rickshaw driver to take him to his childhood home...." Enjoy this inter-faith tale of two individuals who sojourn together in kindness, gradually summoning closure from past hurt, residing in the histories of their respective communities. This movie reminds us of Maya Angelou's words that -- it takes courage to be kind. 

Most suited to be watched with grown or adult children.

"This is my seventh time to reread and enjoy the little prince’s thought provoking, sad, poetic, nostalgic, powerful, emotional journey to the world! 

Nearly 80 years later from its first release it still addresses to your heart, giving its important social criticism messages and also it gives you hope about friendship, childhood, life. That’s why after all these years the book is still cherished by both adults and young generations. 

Anytime I join this adventure, it makes you cry and smile at the same time which makes this book unique, timeless, lyrical, extraordinary. 

Here are my favorite quotes: “And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.” " -- A goodreads review
