Quotes by Jenny Feldon (?)

“came to India with a whole lifetime of expectations and assumptions about the way the world should work, the way life was supposed to be.”
― Jenny Feldon, Karma Gone Bad: How I Learned to Love Mangos, Bollywood and Water Buffalo

“But when you can only accept life the way you’ve always known it, when you fight back against every deviation from “normal,” your mind is closed. It took nine months, a hundred tiny failures, and a shaggy-haired Indian boy holding a bunch of celery to open my eyes to a bigger picture.”
― Jenny Feldon, Karma Gone Bad: How I Learned to Love Mangos, Bollywood and Water Buffalo
