Recently, I've been checking the shared images and files with my sister on Messenger and I saw unnoticed short videos and images. I laughed so hard as I watched the videos as I saw my mother dancing on TikTok. She's a person who is not into phones, cameras, videos, and any digital stuff, and seeing her dancing is something different. My sister once mentioned to me that they are teaching our mother how to use the phone and it is actually good for her so she wouldn't be left behind in this fast-growing modern era.
Now my mother is being influenced by her children to do TikTok videos, lol. I don't find any problem with it, in fact, I feel happy seeing her enjoying it once in a while. Her entire life revolved just around her family and I'm glad to see her doing something different that could alleviate her stress, and not just doing house chores.
All I actually want for my parents is to relax since they are getting older. Unfortunately, since they were too active in making their family grow bigger before, it would make their retirement a little bit late.
Oftentimes, when I am traveling, I also wish for my parents to be with me and let them see the beautiful places I am visiting. They are my dream travel companion. One of my dreams is to travel with them to all parts of the world and let them experience new things that they haven't tried before.
Although I am not close to my father, I admire him for being a responsible father to us and supporting us financially back when he was still in service. Even though he committed some mistakes, he never abandoned us, and that's what matters more. Besides, it's all because of him that I was able to graduate from school.
Meanwhile, my mother never stop serving her family since she tied the knot with my father. There were no days that she rested, not even when she was sick. Just imagine almost 40 years in a relationship, that's how long she has served our family. She stood as mother and father to us during those times when my father was always on duty. And she deserves a big break.
These are all just part of my dreams. And a Dreamer like won't stop until they become true. I wouldn't mind if that's just a simple vacation for my parents somewhere in my country, all I want is to give them a break and give back the sacrifices they have rendered for our family.
At times, I felt tired and unmotivated, especially when several challenges are thrown at the same time. However, being Resilient has helped me get through any tough challenges my life has thrown at me, and those I will be met along my journey.
All I need is to strengthen my faith and be more Persevering so no challenges could take me down. I know it's tough to balance life and work sometimes. I know it's tiring to grind 7 days a week. I know it's challenging to be away from my family. But I also know that someday, I will be able to harvest the real fruit of my labor.
