 Laucatong is a time when people come together, they gather wherever there's a river or a lake and give thanks to the water. In Asia we celebrate a lot of festivals like New Year's, Thai New Year's, Chinese New Year's, Diwali, Eid and in these festivals we light candles and lighting one makes me think of the friends and family that live far away. My parents moved here three decades ago and I feel like I'm from two places. I am a migrant.
