Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh!!!
I just had an experience maybe last week... I was at work ( i work at a grocery store.. part time kindda thing) and these to girls come up to my cash. one Goree and the other indian. So i was talking to them as i put their order through and one of the first words that came out of their mouth was " U are Amritdhari, arent u?" I was amazed.. because from looking at me one could not tell ( well at least i didnt think that one could tell) if i was or was not. Most ppl dont even think of my as indian much less and
Sikh. My name tag doesnt show it, its not like a wear a dastaar or anything either. so ya the whole point of my story i guess is that. Sure your name isnt everything right, and your name doesnt make you
Sikh, being a
Sikh makes you a
Sikh right?? BUt then again like for those pepole wh dont have english names, thye do not know how it feels when everyong n your family has a Sikhi name and soo when every people come over its like "WJKK WJKF ! Gagandeep, Sunpreet,Inderjit, Shannon" like it just sounds wierd. And soo i think that pepole without a
Sikh name feel maybe a bit different becuase of that ( I cant speak for everyone.. but this is how i personally feel). and i kno that besides taking amrit.. this is something that i have really really wanted to do.
Soo long story short.. people who has English names just dont feel right when they know at heart that they are a
Sikh but on the outside they are just anothe " Billy-Joe" like everyone else.
