 Welcome to TFAW Letters, a special summer series from The Filipino American Woman Project. I’m your host, Jen Amos. Each week, I will read a fictionalized letter—my creative interpretation of real conversations with you! These letters have been woven with heart, reflection, and truth—to honor your stories while protecting your privacy. It all begins with one line: “If I could say one thing…” Because sometimes, one thing is all we need to take up a little more space.

    If you could reflect on one thing, it’s this:

    Whose voice shaped your definition of success—and does it still hold true?

    This letter is for anyone who has ever felt like their career choices were never enough.

    Through much clarity, the writer explores what it means to break free from a parent’s version of stability—and instead build a life aligned with purpose, not predictability. Whether confronting generational expectations or making peace with a mother who may never understand, this letter offers a moment of quiet self-trust.

    If you’ve ever heard your parents’ voice in your head when you’re trying to make a decision, or struggled to explain your unconventional path to someone who just doesn’t get it—this one’s for you.

    If you could reflect on one thing, it’s this:

    What are you still allowing that you now have the power to change?

    This letter is for anyone who’s ever witnessed someone they love live small in order to survive.

    The writer speaks to her cousins, trying to help them see the impact of a domineering father. Though now adults with careers, they still live under his roof: polite, submissive, and living like NPCs. The writer reflects on how her own journey of independence has made her more aware of what her cousins never had.

    Whether you’ve been the one watching from the outside or the one still inside the house, this letter shines a light on what’s unspoken in some Filipino families: the cost of obedience, the price of silence, and the risk of choosing yourself.

    If you could reflect on one thing, it’s this:

    If someone from your past reached out today, what would you say to them?

    This letter is for anyone who got busy with life and unknowingly let a friendship fade—and wondered if it’s too late to say something now.

    The writer reflects on a once-assumed bond that slipped away with time, distance, and neglect. Whether you've been the one who never reached out—or the one who replied with caution—this letter holds space for regret, gratitude, and the courage to acknowledge love that didn’t get closure.

    If you’ve ever looked up an old friend, hovered over the “send message” button, or realized mistakes that only come in hindsight—this one’s for you.
