I was born in India to a Sikh family in the city of Amritsar, Punjab. My father was a businessman and my mother is a homemaker. I have three siblings. I spend my early childhood in Amritsar and moved to Ludhiana, Punjab from where I completed my formal education. I have done my graduation from Chandigarh University. From my parents I have learned to respect others and to help everyone which I am still following. I raised in a sitatution when my family was not having anything. We lived in rented house for so many years. My parents struggled a lot. Due to my parents hardships I am here now. I learned with hard-work I can have everything in my life and my parents are one of the best example for me. Few months back, I moved to Canada for better life and higher education. Here life is full of struggle. I never worked before coming to Canada, now I am facing a lot of difficulties in coping up with all things but I know, I will complete my studies with success.
Religion
I am from Punjabi family I follow Sikh religion. Sikhism is a monotheistic religion, and the basic Sikh belief is represented in the phrase Ik Onkar meaning One God . The primary source of scripture for me is the Guru Granth Sahib ji, regarded as the living guru, after the final guru in human form passed away. In my religion I go to gurdwara where men and women sit apart. My religion had taught me to help everyone, never hurts someone, pray everyday, remember God. I follow my religion and I have faith in God. My parents told me to read the holy book in the morning, evening and at time of sleep. The one thing that has written in holy book is God Is One. I respect all religion but, follow mine. I believe what is written in Guru Granth Sahib ji is true. My religion taught me to do good with everyone without exception of geeing anything in return.
Language and Communication
I belong to Punjabi family. The way in which I use to communicate with others is Punjabi. Punjabi is the name of the language, as well as the people, of the Punjab region. In the early 21st century there were about 30 million speakers of Punjabi. Punjabi in India use a different script. It is my mother tongue, but in school and universities I was not allowed to speak Punjabi. The preference is given to the English language however, I use to communicate with my family, friends and teachers in Punjabi most of the time. Expect Punjabi I know two more languages that are Hindi and English. English is the most spoken language across the world. Communication is very important for sharing ideas and believes. Sometimes I use to write emails, letters for communication.
Clothing
The standard clothing for men in the rural Punjab is the kurta, that, or Pyjama, and turban. The traditional clothing for women traditional is the salwar suit which is replaced the traditional Punjabi ghagras. In Punjabi clothing culture we are not having permission to expose skin. We are told to wear that clothes which cover whole body. Time has been changed now we are into western culture. I wear western clothes now but, at the time of festivals or occasions I like to wear traditional Salwar suits but as an option, it is not compulsory anymore in clothing style. In the past time, ancestors used to wear cotton clothes which we still prefer to wear in summer season. The religious people wear chola that is a long outfit which is similar to a gown.
Recreation
In the past, Punjabis spent their leisure time in traditional sports and games, in religious fairs and celebration, and in their rich traditional of folklore and folk culture. My family used to have their songs, folk dances and castes of travelling entrainment. This has changed in recent times with expanding notoriety of radio, tv, films. Earlier times there was a sport called kabaddi, cock fighting and camel racing were very famous for entertainment purpose. In early childhood I had spend my fun time by cycling, ski-ping, and badminton. In my free time I use to cook because I love cooking different cushiness. Now I have left all those sports, in my free time I prefer to watch animated movies and accessing internet on social sites whereas my family spend their leisure time on watching realty shows and on mobile-phones. Sometimes when nobody is at home I use to play kids in my street for tasing my time.
Arts and Expression
Present day people arts in the Punjab represent tradition that may reach out back a few thousand years. Village powers make mud toys that look fundamentally the same as figurines recovered from archaeological sites. Worker ladies pursue a convention of painting intricate designs on the mud walls of their houses for festival days. The Punjab is noted for its elaborate embroidery work. Painting were drawn with line drawings in by bright colours and contrast or patters. It was done by the women to meet demands. I am having interest in arts and expression I use to do embroidery on clothes with use of thread and needle, and make flower with help of wire that my mother told. For creativity I use to paint the pot and using rice to make different type of flowers and patters for decoration purpose. In my house I had made a pen style by using papers even I have learned to make roses by using ribbons and paper.
Food and Diet
Punjab being a land of abundant mil, its related products is an important part of their everyday. Curd and buttermilk is present in every Punjabi meal. I prefer to eat wheat products and rice on special occasions. I like to eat spicy food so, I add some spices and lot of ghee to my food. In the morning, we Punjabi prefer to have stuffed paranthas with vegetables like potatoes, cauliflower, radish, cottage cheese with a glass of buttermilk. Dahi Raita is preferably eaten at dinner time. The local cuisine of Punjab is influenced by the agriculture and faming lifestyle. Local grown staple foods from the major part of the local cuisine. Punjabi food is known for its nutritional value. My grandparents lived in villages for so many years and their style of cooking is totally different from now. They include wood fired and masonry ovens for cooking food. Now we use gas cookers in our house.
Values
values are beliefs of a person in which they have emotional investment. In my family values are highly respected and are fundamental in daily life. The values in my family are; a woman must obey her husband, arrange marriages are commonplace and females has to do household chores. I have to follow my cultural values like obeying elders, when greeting people using Namaste and for males they have to touch elders feet, do not show anger, drinking is not allowed. Some cultural values are waking up early in the morning and reciting prays. My parents never given me permission to eat meat but I eat. For communication we asked to avoid standing to close to others, men should not attempt to shake hands with women. In my cultural values there is a ritual of naming a child and it always takes place in a Gurdwara.
Family Life Process
In Punjabi families, all important decisions are taken by the head of the member that is male. In my family, my father is the head of the family and he use to set rules and regulations for us starting from childhood to my education and marriage. He is even the earnings member from whole family. In my family, females usually do household chores and male members are not allowed to do so. In my family males are given more preference in caparison to females. The daughters of the family would leave house after marriage.
Social Status
I raised in middle class family. My father was a businessman and leader of the community group. He achieved status in the society as he used to do good for the community like teaching girl child. My father spent 10% of the income towards helping families for girls marriage. My father had fulfilled a role for us starting from nurture, educating, guiding and protecting us whereas my mother usually have complementary roles. My mother is very likely a daughter and granddaughter for several people. I am daughter for my parents and a sister for my siblings when I am having conversation with my parents I will be very polite and when I am talking to other family members or to the society it differs.
Healing
Love begins at home. To help anyone we don’t need to go far away, instead its begging in the families where we are. Caring each other is considered to be the most important factor than anything else. Emotional support even plays important role to help the pain. In my family we faced hard times together and was able to due so because of support of each other. When sometimes I am sick my family use old methods for recovering as my family believes the best treatment for the injury is turmeric in milk as it heals the injury. My father was cancer patient he was able to survive for two years even doctor told us they would be able to survive more than two months but, sometimes medicines dont as much as pray and emotional support work and heals the pain.
Small Group Interactions
Nowadays everyone is busy in their lives even if a talk about my family whole members are busy in their stuff so, there is less interaction time with them. We discuss are problems at breakfast time or dinner time. If I face any hurdle I will make a call to my family members and talk about my problem. I have good relations with my family members so, everyone is there to give me suggestions. Having a conservation in a busy schedule plays important because talking time for family members is huge deal for maintaining relationships. Now I am far away from my family I use to have conversation daily on video calls to get connected to them.
