Hussain, these photos taken by Vinesh are beautiful, and so is the post about your mother and sister and the traditional labour of embroidery. So much to think about here!
Some things must wait, until they come into the light of a new day. Your mother’s peran-tumban was with you during the long years of detention. You used this time well, and now it has travelled with you into a world of opportunity. Now you can reflect on the love that went into those stitches, and also the lack of opportunity for the women and girls. The photographs and the writing are beautiful.
Your Peran-tumban was washed, folded and sewn with love, and your mother will be happy to know you have worn it for these super portraits taken by Vinesh. I am deeply saddened that Afghan women have their ambition and talents crushed by the Taliban. To actively deprive them from education tells much.

Thanks Helen! Yeah, Vinesh is best.
I had a mix feeling writing about. The sweetness of my mom's gift and the limiting labor behind it.

Thanks Amanda. This new life freed up a lot of things for me. Now it needs me to welcome that freedom!

Thanks Rowan. I haven't yet get to tell her or send the those pictures. She would be very happy 😊
