Suzanna, I've probably read this half a dozen times now—brilliant writing! It's all too familiar, unfortunately, having to wait patiently to be heard among those speaking the loudest.

This is powerful. I felt her struggle and her triumph and I vow to be more mindful to make space for her and all of her sisters in future conversations.

My God. The rhythm of this, the lyrics of this, brought out, thumped, and echoed through the force of the veins pulsating through the skin of my noggin. Like a gentle massage of the muscles of one's face. Thank you.

Evocative and took me right to her.. I could feel, almost smell her tension yet commitment to making her contribution . It’s an excellent reminder to keep our hearts and ears open for all at the table.
