Day 3 - Your Parents
So day three has come and gone. Today's letter was one to my parents and it was... torn?
Don't get me wrong, I love my parents. My parents gave me life and raised me well and gave me everything that I could ever ask for. They have provided food and shelter and a VERY good education and I will always love them and always be grateful.
Feel the "but" coming on? Because here it is.
I'll always love them and be grateful but there are always things about parents that children aren't happy with. I wish we had more money or more liberties. I wish a lot of things, and I wish that I could be open about these things but it's not always that easy. There are things I wish I had told them when I was in high school or going into college, but as much as I like to be open I'll never be THAT open.
My letter today was an up and down roller coaster, but it was nice to get some of my thoughts out on paper. So far this is proving to be a great exercise. Tomorrow's letter is to my sibling, and I'm still deciding between writing to my brother or my sister. So we'll just have to wait and see! Until then...
