Advice: Growth requires change.

To me, it's a civic duty to strengthen the roots in one's community and move forward one's community with what he/she can offer. I think it's also important to look beyond ones' immediate circles and outreach to the larger sphere for connection. I care deeply about my Vietnamese heritage and believe it is important to hold on to and continue the widespread narrative.
