Unbelievably obsessed with how you’re always able to capture moments of people watching and innocent (☝🏾) eavesdropping and turn them into beautiful, reflective pieces like this.
Another beautiful piece Amani! I love these pov pieces. They don’t feel intrusive. They always feel insightful. I’m also a tad jealous there’s an Ethiopian restaurant near you lol
I love the comparison to Pride and Prejudice, it is so apropos. This piece pulled me into your experience and left me illuminated with thought provoking sentiments 🫶🏼
“A father who underestimates his daughter gives other men permission to underestimate her too.”
OOOOF your minddddd
This one was so good
Wow, I feel like I was sitting at the Ethiopian restaurant with you while reading this. So, so wonderfully written.
This brought me to tears. Wonderfully written words, thank you.
What a lovely piece of writing (from a dad of such a daughter)
i'm just echoing the sentiments of everyone else here but seriously, this was so beautiful and pleasant to read!
The father's parenting to a daughter is really a scaffolding for the girls who will soon run their world.
This was such a beautiful read in a way I can’t fully explain. I felt every thing ❤️
This piece made me stop what I was doing and send some love to the teenage girl in me.
Wonderful work as always - sending over to a lot of my girl dads. Inspires some notes myself.
Such a great observational piece. So poignant and meaningful
I’m obsessed with this and obsessed with you. This was so atmospheric I loooooved it - so lovely, interesting and captivating 🩷
Beautiful writing! Just sent this to my husband as he talks to our 7 month old about her first day at day care.
that’s very cool! ✨ & thank you Sydney
