i wanted to share a small excerpt from the praywer that tina fey wrote for her daughter that's part of her new book, bossypants. while i assume that it was penned after william bulter yeat's prayer for his daughter, this version is about one hundred years younger and one hundred times more relevant. have a read:
'lead her away from acting but not all the way to finance.
something where she can make her own hours
but still feel intellectually fulfilled
and get outside sometimes
and not have to wear high heels.
 |
| no heels allowed at this party |
what would that be, lord? architecture? midwifery?
golf course design?
i’m asking you, because if i knew, i’d be doing it, youdammit.'

punchy, but maybe a little too close to home for those of us who would actually much rather be designing golf courses (or be on one, for that matter) than working in finance and wearing high heels.
