Day 3 - Letter to Your Parents

Dear Mom and Dad,

I love you. I always have, and I always will. I am so thankful for having parents who care so much, and are so selfless. I don't think that happens too often nowadays. Thank you for being very supportive with whatever I do and whatever I want to do. Thank you for going to the plays that I have been in everyday. Thanks for the flowers that you've given on the last day of the play. I know I didn't show much gratitude before, and I regret it so much. I now realize that it is the sweetest and most thoughtful gesture ever.

I'm sorry for being so selfish all the time. I try not to. If only you know how much I try... Thanks for guiding Ate and me throughout our lives. We would not have been here -- alive, God-fearing, well-mannered, etc., if it weren't for you. Thank you for working very hard, so that Ate and I can get a good education and have a good pre-employment life.

I just want you to know that everything I invest in now-- my studies, my extracurricular activities and networking, and my personality-- is all for you. I hope to give back to you at least half of what you have given to me--because I KNOW that IT IS IMPOSSIBLE to give it all back. I also want you to know that I try to give my best until I could finally give my best... all for you.

I pray that all your dreams and expectations come true, and I wish you all the happiness in the world. If only I were smarter, I could have done a lot more. But until then, I will give my all to better myself for you. That's all, Mom and Dad. I love you.

Love to the nth power,
Mabelle
