whats in a tribe?

my mom called me up the other night. "find a nice kuki guy" she told me. i was puzzled because my mom never catagories my friends. i kept wondering what she meant by 'kuki'. to me it means someone who can understand my language. since i am multi lingual i dont understand her predicament. perhaps she means some body who is in the chin kuki mizo tribe. now i find her a little sly. i love my mom and thinks the world of her. but sometimes as mother and daughter its not alien that we had our disagreement over certain issues. one issue is my attachment to people not of my own community. now mom is not a racist. but her main concern is that i may not find he right kind of guy from my own community. i have nothing againsts my community guys. its just that i dont see eye to eye with most of them. or perhaps i met only those which are not suitable for me. i will never know. i am ready to mingle with guys who share my own wavelength, my disposition and my social concern. i turn 26 this month and i guess its not too late to be optimistic.but then, i have the most wonder ful boy friend. i share the same wavelength, vision, inerests and most of all he adores me! so i muse whats in a tribe?
