#3 I wont stop to say thank you (To my family)

          It is innate in all human beings to utilize different languages of expression. Some may do so through words; some may through actions; while some may through feelings. Whatever it may be, one thing is for sure by expressing how we value other people, especially our families, is one of the most difficult a must in life. Everyday, we are bombarded of stories of conflict between and among families. Oftentimes, the main reason behind these misunderstandings is doing something different from what our families wanted. Believe it or not, the only thing that could mean people valuing their families is by doing what they wanted. However decision of families are not always right. There is only one alternative that people to which would mean valuing their families despite disobeying them-doing what they genuinely wanted. At the very end of the day, it is not about how much wordly things people give their families, but how deep are the real smiles carved in their faces.
      A decode from now is such a long and unpredictable course of time. Changes may always occur brought about by hurdles set by god, by the types of people I will be able to meet, and by the realizations I will be making influenced by experiences. Nevertheless, reflecting what I will be ten years from now is a good beginning in planning what my future will be like. There is only one way for me to show that I value my parents; being a social worker, a profession which my parents and I wanted myself to pursue. Under the circumstances are three sub-ways. the first one is by helping myself, the second is by helping my family and the last one is by helping the others. My profession will help me how to make my own name respected by other people, by my family, and by my own self. It will enable me to repay, though not fully, the sacrifices my parents have given. Finally, it will teach me how to dedicate myself in serving other people who might need me.
       THANK YOU is an expression that is though very brief, is full of meaning. Saying it is a great achievement, but doing act two figuratively show the feeling behind is a greater accomplishment. despite this, I prefer the latter than the former. As for me, there are three ways by which I can show my gratitude towards my parents. Firstly, obey the rules that god has set for us, This may mean my whole life; but getting his nod is worth of it all. Secondly, do the things my parents wanted me to. I know that there are moments when what our parents want may not what we need; but most of the times, they are, oppositions to their decisions are allowed; however, great tasks await along the road seeking to be passed through. Thirdly, I genuinely wanted. Being myself without any regret is enough to make my parents proud. These are the things that I have set myself to do to thank my parents, and also him. For every little things that they have done from cradle to grave. :))
