This was something my parents instilled in me at a young age. I grew up in the vibrant city of Chennai, India. It was a comfortable life for the most part, but in those early years, we had some challenges. We worried about severe drought and whether the water truck would arrive in time, and for us, technology came slowly. We had to wait years to get a telephone, a TV, a refrigerator. Each changed our lives in meaningful ways. My parents never let the constraints limit my imagination of what was possible. It's the reason I even let myself dream I could one day work in a faraway place called Silicon Valley. When the call from Stanford came, my father spent the equivalent of a year's salary to buy my ticket - @sundarpichai “தமிழன் எங்கு சென்றாலும், எவ்வளவு உயர்ந்த நிலையடைந்தாலும், பணமும் புகழும் அவனது மண்ணின் மணத்தை மாற்றாது என்பதற்கு திரு. சுந்தர் பிச்சை ஒரு சிறந்த உதாரணம்.”
