Our father wants us to be "strong, confident girls". He believes that sports will help us toward this goal...well this and his tidbits of wisdom and advice.
Daddy says that we should just be ourselves, no matter what anyone else thinks. He says that if you like some of Phil Collins' songs then we should listen to Phil whenever we feel like it. And even if our friends in high school find our Phil Collins cassette tape and they decide that it must mean that Phil is our favourite musician in the world so they start buying us Phil memorabilia and making many comments about how they "wish it would rain down on me", we should hold our heads high. Excuse me, we are getting a bit emotional about this...
We try to convice him that we are going to be strong-willed ladies and that's just the way it is. But he wants us to think twice about everything and keeps making references to Phil Collins so we just back away slowly and smile...
Don't be afraid to let them show, your True Colours. True Colours are beautiful like a rainbow :)
