Folding paper, unfolding hearts
Aaditee teaching Origami to children

Origami has always been more than just an art form for me — it’s a language of peace, patience, and joy. Over the years, I’ve shared this passion with thousands, watching simple sheets of paper transform into cranes, flowers, and smiles. But today, what fills my heart the most is seeing my daughter Aaditee carry this tradition forward - in her own beautiful way.
Wherever life takes her - be it school, camps, family functions, or even a short trip - she takes Origami along with her. She doesn’t wait for a stage, a spotlight, or even recognition. She simply finds joy in folding paper and teaching it to others - children, elders, or anyone curious to learn.
What touches me the most is that she does it all voluntarily. She never charges a single rupee. Her reward lies in the sparkle of a child’s eyes when they create their first Origami bird, in the calm that settles over a group while folding together, and in the happiness that lingers long after the session ends.
In a world where everything is often measured in money and recognition, her selfless sharing reminds me that the purest joys come from giving - without expectations. She is living proof that kindness and creativity, when combined, can make a lasting impact.
I watch her fold and teach, and somewhere deep inside, I feel a quiet sense of pride - not just because she’s good at it, but because she’s understood the true spirit of art and giving.
To see her spreading happiness through Origami - carrying forward this beautiful legacy with love and humility - is one of the most fulfilling feelings as a parent.
She is not just folding paper. She is unfolding hearts.
