(A Letter To My Parents) July 16, 2020 4:57 AM

I am truly grateful and extremely thankful for my life.
I had always taken my family, more specifically my parents for granted throughout my life. I have now realized the amount of support and love they have showed me and for that I am completely appreciative. I look back and think of all the things they have sacrificed for me and how much they have cared for me down to all the small little details. When I think about the times where I’ve pushed them off or everytime I was rude or acted cold to them my heart aches. I hate a part of the person I’ve become. Someone that’s way too independent, reserved, and stubborn, thinking that they can do everything by themselves. I wish I was more sympathetic and personable. My parents have been nothing but supportive and for the most part understanding. I haven’t done anything to show my appreciation or pay them back for all their troubles. I’m sorry that sometimes I’m not the son that you raised to be. I am glad you guys are still there for me despite my failures and your disappointments. I will always work to better myself. I am deeply regretful for all the troubles I have ever caused you two. I know I don’t show it a lot but that’s just the way I am.
I love you Mom and Dad.
I hate that I have to leave you guys
