friendships have always been foundational to my life. loyalty and being there for one another is what makes the world go round. according to me anyway. happy birthday to one of my oldest and closest friends, Amra. friends since high school when we found ourselves in the same class in islamabad, both uprooted from alternative lifeworlds (me from belgium, her from algeria). we spoke to each other in french and felt an immediate connection. we’ve grown with each other and shared the good times and the bad. over decades, many times across different continents. love u amra. may all ur dreams come true.
this picture is from a trip to london in the late 1990s. my son, standing in front of us, is 26 now mashallah <3
