Thank You Dad, Thank You Mom

However thank you still doesn't cut it a bit, clearly I've seen how being your parents doesn't mean they care about you, some parents don't give a damn about their kids wellbeing, but in my case being my parents made me a top priority to them, and to this thank you still doesn't say it all. There was a time we couldn't help ourselves, it was at that very young age, we couldn't possibly start working to feed ourselves or buy our clothes, some special people did all that for us. We can only be grateful and thankful to God for placing us in the care of such awesome persons, who didn't abandon us to lesser living, rather gave their time and resources to helping us grow and be better.

Sometimes we just want to rest and not be stressed by the bothers of life, we just wish what we have would be enough to bring the joy we want but it doesn't, we need more, not for ourselves though but majorly to see those people who toiled day and night for us when we couldn't do anything for ourselves happy. To many of us it was our parents who were the heroes, some it was our older siblings who took up the challenge, some a guardian came in and helped us through. It would be so much delight to finally be able to reciprocate the love and care they have shown, not necessarily because we want to pay back but rather cause we genuinely want to see them happy and more comfortable. This special individuals are a motivation for us to work harder.

Its not only in the movies we see parents give their all to see their children get the best, it happens in real life, like yes, it happened to me. Today I don't know how to say no whenever my parents call for assistance. Not because I'm wealthy, I'm not yet wealthy, would be soon though by Gods grace and mercy, but really because I just want them to know I would be eternally grateful for all they have done.

There's no way I can pay it up completely, moreover if it hadn't been for them shaping me to this person when I still didn't know about life, maybe my lifestyle would have been different and I wouldn't be in the state of mind I'm in today. As kids we don't really know what school is best for us and our future, we don't also care about who we hang around with, we clearly don't know that some stations on the TV should not be seen, all what we know is fun fun fun, and so its our parents or guardian job to see to it that we are on the right track leading to a better intended future.

We can at least try to train up our kids to be good children both morally and socially, but how do we make sure our parents are good, well we don't, it's almost like a gamble, any home God places you in you've got no choice but to live in it. Don't forget our environment has a lot to influence our life. Growing up in a rough side has made many people into becoming thugs, dealing drugs and all, not because the parents are bad, but the environs is not a good placement to train up a child.

So what can one do if you're born into a rough family or yet a rugged environment? Well as a child, you can really do little or nothing as you are only being influenced, you don't really know what's going on, before you start getting conscious, the lifestyle might have become usual and normal to you. So to this reason we can only be but grateful to all our parents or guardians who saw it best to train us up both in the right environment and also with the right attitude on their path.

They might not have given us the best of standards but they gave us their best and that's sweet enough for us. If they had the funding to give us the best of education or connections, they sure would without a second thinking about it, its the love percent that matters much. Daddy's business hasn't yet recovered from the constant spending while trying to get us the best and feeding as well as all that is needed, he alone shouldered the responsibilities, mommy tries her best, she stays with us at home and keep an eye on us, together they gave all they could and that alone is a priceless gift to me, i pray always to God for his strength to continually be there for them whenever they need me and that I'll never let them down.

I can't possibly ask for anything more, God bless them for me, they are the sweetest gift life gave to me, I didn't choose them, God did and it turned out to be a perfect choice. I'm forever grateful. They are enough reason to get up every day and work, work for better pay and for a better life, one they too can enjoy. They did teach us how to give a 100% to our kid as they did to us. We have learnt and going to reciprocate. We hope to do better, we are indeed going to do better. Thank you to every good parent and guardian out there. You have taught well indeed.
