Lessons for My Beloved Daughter

Dear Emma,

There will come a time when you might stumble upon a device and search for information about me online. Perhaps you’ll uncover this collection of thoughts that I wish to share with you.

I could have penned these on a traditional sheet of paper, tucked away in a forgotten corner of my closet alongside your brother’s first tooth and a peculiar piece of glass I once removed from your other brother’s leg. However, we both know it would likely gather dust and be lost to time.

I apologize for not being the type of mother who meticulously compiles baby books or documents every moment. If you ever read this, I hope you embrace the wisdom within instead of thinking, “Wow, my mom is so odd.” Please resist the urge to rebel by posting revealing photos online. Trust me—it’s not a good idea.

Key Insights I Want You To Embrace:

  1. While it’s valuable to present yourself with grace, there are moments when boldness is necessary. If you feel the need to express anger, do so with purpose. Afterwards, fix your hair, touch up your makeup, and move forward.
  2. You are beautiful—embrace it. Yet remember, your actions and words define you. Invest time in your appearance to boost your confidence, but dedicate even more time to cultivating kindness and authenticity that draws others to you.
  3. Authenticity matters. I want you to feel secure enough in your identity to be your genuine self at all times. That version of you is incredible—don’t hide her away.
  4. Some women may attempt to bring you down. Choose your friends wisely—surround yourself with those who uplift and understand you. Seek out companions who share laughter and tears; having such friends will cushion the sting of negativity from others.
  5. Critics will always exist. As you grow, you’ll learn to care less about their opinions. Until then, it may hurt.
  6. You owe nothing to anyone. If someone touches you in an unwelcome way, stand up for yourself.
  7. You may face underestimation. Focus more on the thrill of surprising people with your intellect rather than relying on fleeting compliments for your looks. Anyone can be pretty; only you can be uniquely you.
  8. Your father and brothers will likely complicate your dating life. I apologize for that, but remember, if a boy can impress them, he’s likely worth your affection.
  9. If you meet someone you like, feel free to date him, but don’t feel pressured to marry him, even if he suggests it.
  10. You come from a lineage of strong women. I hope you carry on that legacy by staying true to yourself, regardless of life’s challenges. When in doubt, refer back to point three.
  11. Please wait until you feel ready for parenthood before engaging in sexual relationships. Choose a partner who you believe is suitable to father your future children. And for heaven’s sake, prioritize your education so you can secure a job. Yes, I emphasize this for a reason.
  12. Even if you’re not great at something, participate in it anyway. Eventually, you’ll discover what brings you joy—something that aligns with your strengths.
  13. If your circumstances don’t satisfy you, take action to change them.
  14. Lastly, invest time in getting a proper bra fitting. You’ll be surprised at how much the right undergarments can enhance your comfort and confidence.
