This is a beautiful tribute to your father. The walk to school resonated most with me. The first time I was allowed to walk to school alone, I was so excited! Halfway there, I turned around to see my father following me because he wanted to make sure I got there safely. I was angry at first. But when he caught up with me, I was happy to see him and slip my hand in his.
Oh Ruhie.. this is so beautiful and I now have tears leaking from my face. My mom used to sing You are My Sunshine all the time, I can’t listen to it anymore without sobbing for missing her.
Thank you for the shoutout, my micro pieces are actually memoir snapshots :) I love that you took inspiration from Tiffany and I! I’m so glad we’ve connected here ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you Mesa! Oh wow what a beautiful connection. Music is so powerful that way - even a simple melody like this one can evoke a profound emotional response or transport you back in time ❤️ I’ve loved reading your ultra-short stories and had no idea they’re from your memoir! I’m so excited to connect with you and thank you for sharing 😊
I love this so so sooo much ❤️ You’ve articulated his essence and impact on us throughout our lives so well in this piece. And I love more than anything that you continue to honour his memory through the dada song.

Thank you Linda! Oh that’s so sweet! Maybe not in the moment haha, but in retrospect. Thanks for sharing this beautiful memory 🫶
