A promise to my daughter

I will love you always, unconditionally, no matter what.

I will not pamper you, this will forge your resilience. That will help you conquer all of life obstacles

I do not intend to raise a princess, but rather a warrior, with fire in her heart and ice in her veins.

In my mind, there is nothing you can’t do. No job or goal beyond your reach.

I will challenge you so that you stand confidently on your own two feet.

And I will set the example on how to treat those you love, so that when you chose a partner, it will be someone that lifts you up.

I will invest my time and energy in you, so that when I am gone, enough memories of me, will be with you, in your heart, to keep forever.

Stand tall, with your shoulders back.

This world is yours for the taking.
