Dear Nanay & Tatay, Mama bhe & Tito Eugene,

I feel so honored to have you as my family, as my Nanay, as my tatay, as my mama bhe and as my Tito Eugene,
and want to express my gratitude for your care and support over the years. Thank you for instilling me with a strong
passion for learning and for doing everything possible to put me on the path to greatness. I may be suplada, maldita
or whatever bad attitude I have sometimes but you still understand and support me despite everything. You are
always there behind my back supporting and cared for me making me feel that I ain’t alone on my journey in this
world. I know this isn’t the end of my journey but it’s just the beginning, but I promise to you all that I will finish my
college and achieve all my goals in life and in our family through that I can give back all the hardships and support
you gave to me all through out to finish my senior high school. You know that I am not a kind of person that is showy
or expressive when it comes to my feelings, but I want you to know deep inside my heart you have a huge place in
there that no one can ever replace. I wanted to say these words to you but I always feel shy, but now through this
letter I want to express my gratitude to you. I wanted to say THANK YOU for everything that you have done for me.
Thank you for always believing in me when others don’t. Thank you for all those sermons and pangarals everytime
I’m acting suplada, maldita and immature. I always keep it in mind and it ended as my motivations in school. You are
my strength whenever I feel weak, you are the reason why I kept on believing in myself, why I kept on believing that
I can achieve all my dreams. Now to start my journey I wanted to begin it in saying THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK
YOU! for everything and I wont ever get tired to say those words to you again and again.
