I’ve been so lucky to get to spend so much time with dad. There’s two moments I especially want to remember.
There’s tons of shopping to do in Bihndi Bazar and shopping isn’t dad’s favorite thing. He wanted some stuff and picked it out really quickly. When it was time to pay for stuff he just handed the lady a stack of money and said “you count”. It wasn’t obnoxious at all. It was actually somehow friendly. He didn’t want to spend time on this and he had decided he trusted the other person. It was also a totally baller move. Two things really stuck out to me. Money doesn’t matter and respect the person in front of you.
Later that day, dad was tired after a long day of stuff and clearly about to nod off. Nooriya right at that moment asked him jarringly to do something or the other with her. He perked up immediately and almost automatically said, “ Of course!” Again, somethings really stuck out to me. Spend your time wisely and take advantage of every opportunity.
Taher, keep your eyes and your mind open. There’s so much to learn.
