26th of June

few days from now my parents will be celebrating their 27th wedding anniversary. actually it will be on the coming saturday...and i am planning to go to Yvet's despedida cum LW get together party a.k.a. session with a twist. i know my parents will understand. i've been living with them the entire 21 years of my life so one day would not hurt them -or would it?.

anyway

i would like to make an imaginary toast with the imaginary glass filled with imaginary age-in-oak-barrel-wine to both of them -mama and papa- for making it this far. i know only few people reach this stage. a toast for the patience, hard work, and understanding for each other; for withstanding every trial that went pass them in the 27 years. i know it's been a rough road. tough decisions were made. tough luck. for all the good times they shared -and will continually be sharing for eternity. i'm happy to have shared -and continually share it with them. it's hard to imagine life without them...

yeah. 26 years is no joke. to be able to make it this far means so much. maybe it's love. but as i see it...it's more of the will to stay together.

my parents may not be the perfect parents, as i'm not the perfect daughther... but they've been good to me...

i never really knew, what i did good to deserve them.

if the measure of the parents' success lie on the success of their children....then they are on the right road.

and i am burdened to do good.

i think after reading this they will give me everything i'd ask them...any book i desire...

so until they read this....i'll be waiting.
