To my Dad, Papa and Hero.

This day we celebrate Father's Day all around the world and I take this opportunity to greet happy father's day to my papa and to all fathers out there. We as your children are thankful from the bottom of our heart and soul.

*To my papa,* Papa first of all I want to thank God that you became my father, my friend and my hero. I don't know how to express how I feel now as I write this letter but one thing is clear and sure I am thankful from the bottom of my heart and soul for I have the best father that exist in this wonderful world. For me you're the best father , friend and a teacher that I have . We've been born in the same month but different date yet we are like brothers when we hang out. You've fulfilled your greatest role in your existence and that is to be a father to me, your only son. You've made the greatest sacrifices for me and to your family. You've suffered and endured all the ups and downs of life just to give us a better life especially for me. I know that you've been my greatest supporter since I was in the womb of my mother. I know that you already sacrificed and endured enough through the journey of your life. I know that even you're tired , you always do your best not to give up and continue to strive for us. I'm thankful that we both love dogs and it makes me happy when we get the chance to play with our dogs. I'm thankful that you taught me how to play basketball because that is your forte since you were young. You've been a player in our barangay in your teens and I'm proud of it, sorry for not being that good in basketball to continue your career. In this beautiful world that we live in, I know that I'm not the best son in the world but I'm thankful how supportive you are to me. We've been through many obstacles and we overcome them together. You sacrificed a lot in order to fund my studies from Kinder to grade 12 senior high and you did that just by being a tricycle driver, farmer and barangay tanod and as your only son I will be forever proud to shout to the whole world that you are my father. Last year I had my hardest obstacle in my life , it made me depressed , pushes me to my edge to the point of ending my life but it's just amazing and magical that you didn't leave my side not a single minute. You are always there for me when I need someone to lean on. You've become my crying shoulder since I was a kid. You are there when I've been in the darkest corner of my life. You are there when I need to voice out my pains that continues to consume me. You never turn your back against me even when everybody did. You've become my greatest protector and a hero in my life. And because of that I'm very grateful for all of that papa. You can see that I'm not very showy on how I express my love and how grateful I am but truly and deep inside me I love you and I don't want to loose you. If I will be given the chance to make one wish , that one wish is for you not to aged and you'll continue to support me for the rest of my life. I don't have any gifts to you and I'm sorry for that papa but the only gift I can give you is that someday I will continue and finish my study. I will surpass my limits to be successful. Thank you for always being there. Thank you for being my greatest father. Thank you for being my greatest friend and thank you for being my forever hero. Once again Happy fathers day to all fathers out there ,especially to my father. ***"Ikaw ay lubos kong ipagmamalaki habang ako'y humihinga aking dakilang Ama"***
