Dear Family,
To all my loved ones,
To the ones who came before,
THANK YOU.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you for teaching me how life works.
Thank you for teaching me morals and values.
Thank you for teaching me that a clean kitchen functions best.
Thank you for teaching me the value of sacrifice, because I know that in the end me doing all the dishes for a dinner I don't get to eat is not only a kind gesture, but also, the only way to not have dishes sit in the sink for weeks on end. No one wants to do them anyway.
Thank you for being the ones who know that I exist.
Thank you for showing me how to show gratitude for services rendered.
Thank you for telling me to grow up the right way. To stay away from drugs and illegal substances (and not advertise it if I had a little alcohol before I was of legal age).
Thank you for not giving me everything I ever asked for because I learned what I really needed in the end.
Thank you for telling me to eat with my mouth closed.
Thank you for telling me to never give up and to push through the tough times because I would be reduced to tears over a sink full of dishes and nasty kitchen by now...
Without my family I would be a completely different person.
I love them all very much.
I count myself blessed.
