Whoever does not love, does not know God because God is love.

1 John 4:8

When I was young, when I hear word love the images that comes out from my mind are probably
boyfriends, girlfriends, lovers, couples and people who are married.

I always remember when Valentine's day comes I will talk sarcastically to lovers passing by and say out
loud, " Love again? It will only hurt you. It will not last because forever does not exist."

When I became mature in Christ, I was so ashamed by the words that I had spoke, I did not realize that
that time I was underestimating love. For love does not only evolve in Eros love. There is a love for
family, a love we can see from a friend or our friends, a love we can find from our brothers and mostly, a
love we can seek from God, and that's what we called agape love. The highest form of love which a kind
love who loves selflessly without expecting any in return . Love is wonderful and beautiful it is not only
limited to married people or people having relationship with same or opposite sex. Love is for everyone,
it is the greatest gift that God has given to humankind and I am not kidding when I say love is God. God
is a precious gift delivered truly yours by himself to us and whoever accepts his love and called the name
of the Lord our God shall be save.

I'll start by saying I love you papa and mama. This letter is about what i wanted to tell you during our
Family Day. Obviously i know you can't go to this school event and its totally fine with me.

I wrote the both of you a separate letter because the two of you are in different places and my love for
the both of you are different, a love

from hatred and love from care.

To Papa,

I really do miss you papa, i miss your conceitedness and being childish sometimes. Even though i want
you to be always on my side i know i can't keep you forever i know i shouldn't be selfish and rebel
because you did all of this for my own good. I hope you'll be happy with her i may never support you
100% but I'll understand you completely as far as i can. All i wanted you to be is to be happy. I may never
agree but I want you to be happy. That's how I love you dad, i can even sacrifice my happiness for you
because i know you needed it you deserved it .even my life i will give to you because i know i will never
live without you you're one of the persons i'm holding on to, you are my source of strength. I will protect
you that way you protected me. You considered me dad as your little princess but no matter how little
and weak this princess could be surely this princess will protect the king until her last breath because
that's how much she love her kingdom, her family.

You will always be my first love no matter how many boys who'll try to swoon and court me. I know
Sometimes you think i dont listen to every words you said but promise to God i take to heart every
sermon and rants you're telling me.

I hope you'll never get tired of understanding us especially me. Don't get tired yet dad, i'm still not
ready. We've already lost our queen but i'm never ready to lose the king, the kingdom we built will
surely be ruined if we lose the last thing we hold on the most.

Take care of yourself there daddy! I warn you don't make another little princess there i will surely get
jealous and kick his or her and your butt out of this kingdom. I hope we are clear on this matter. I miss
you dad and i always love you.

To Mom,

"I know its too late to say these things to you ... Blah blah blah." Erase this please, i will never write this
cliche line on my letter. I know its never to late to tell things i wanted to tell to you. I always believe
you're always there by my side listening and hearing my every plea and cry. Words i wanted to say can
always fly to heaven and the angels will surely send it to you. But did you know what is too late? "I know
its too late to do these things to you." I can always say I love you but i can never hug and kiss you. I can
always tell you how much I miss you but i know you will never go back, anymore. Im sorry, i'm really
sorry for all the unpleasant deeds i did to you especially for always making you angry and for hating you.
Its really hard for me, I am the princess and i'm always willing to protect the king but i ignored and
refused the queen. I let our queen get lost and never come back to our kingdom again.

I know wherever you are you are happy right now you, in many years of hardship your family have given
you, the family that you served but treated you like a bank, you deserved it, you deserve rest and
happiness.

I know you're already tired. You can close your eyes now mom and sleep tight don't worry about us, we
can take care of ourselves. Goodbye mom and I love you always.
