I relate sooo much to this, as a multiracial woman in my 40’s looking back on my life, especially in childhood and even nowadays, sometimes I wonder if it has played more of a part in my relationships than I realized.
I appreciate your contemplative and thoughtful words on this subject!
So much of this spoke to me, from the description of life as a third culture kid to the experience of going to visit the home of your immigrant parents and seeing them in a whole new light, to the feeling of getting to know yourself differently as you grow, to the fact that language gives you a very different perspective on a people or a culture, rather than just being a set of words. I really appreciated this and loved how it was articulated. Thank you for these words. They'll sit with me for a long time.
Thanks Noha for such a thoughtful comment — this is exactly why I wanted to start featuring conversations with people as part of my newsletter. So many more voices! So much more to connect to! Xx
