10/10/10

Maybe its supposed to be a really special day, but I'm weighed down by the papers that society has set for everyone. Exams. Finals. Whatever they call it.

Today is my parent's 20th Anniversary, for being legally married (Nope, they were never illegally married, its just the ROM). 20 years is a really long time! I am really happy to be part of their lives, and I would never wish for it any other way.

We've been through family ups and downs, goods and bads. Which family hasn't? And I love how that brings us just closer to each other in different ways other families aren't. I'm not saying other families aren't as close, but I guess the 'connection' is different, the way we connect is different.

To me, today isn't just the day to celebrate their marriage, but to celebrate the family we've been, and the parents they've been to me, and I guess that's my objective today.

My parents are not perfect, then again, perfection is flawed. I have wished them to be many things but themselves whenever they reprimand me, annoy me, or we get into an argument. I wish my mom would concentrate on the movies she watch instead of asking questions every 20 seconds. Then again, I would never learn patience if she wasn't who she is. I wish my dad would stop asking me so many thought-provoking questions that parents would not have asked their child, but it would never make the curious person in me. I would never be who I am, and its not because they are physically teaching and moulding me, but they as themselves, as people I interact with, becomes the root of who I am. I love my parents.

They have done MANY annoying things, and they have made me feel like I'm not important, misunderstood etc. But because of how they taught me when I was young, I know very well, that, I AM AN ADOLESCENCE, AND I AM EMOTIONAL AND OVERSENSITIVE. Therefore, I more or less can push away those touchy feelings away. At times. They really try to understand and know me as a person, going great lengths to pep-talk when I am having social problems, especially at the start of this year when I felt really out of place in school. They have ALWAYS tried their best, and that just overshadows their shortcomings.

In conjunction to this simple event in my life, I decided that this song would be great for my parents. Its from me to them, though I wonder if they ever know that this is my blog, they don't poke around much... I think in 10 years time, I will reveal this post to them. If I still blog and if I've not deleted this blog or moved on to a bunch of new blogs.

YOU'LL BE IN MY HEART.


Come stop your crying
It will be all right
Just take my hand Hold it tight 

I will protect you
from all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry 

For one so small,
you seem so strong
My arms will hold you,
keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry 

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more 

You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart, always 

Why can't they understand
the way we feel
They just don't trust
what they can't explain
I know we're different but,
deep inside us
We're not that different at all 

And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more 

Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know
We need each other,
to have, to hold
They'll see in time
I know 

When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
I know
We'll show them together 

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on,
Now and forever more 

Oh, you'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be in my heart, always
Always 


TO MY BELOVED MOMMY AND DADDY, I LOVE YOU GUYS VERY MUCH, AND YOU HAVE BEEN THE BEST PARENTS GOD COULD HAVE EVER GIVEN ME. I TRULY AM HAPPY TO HAVE YOU. I COULD NEVER WISH FOR ANYTHING MORE, OR LESS. YOU'LL ALWAYS BEEN IN MY HEART, TILL YOUR RIPE OLD AGE AND YOUR LEATHERY SKIN SAGS FURTHER, YOU'LL ALWAYS BE THE BEST PARENTS TO ME, YOU'RE MY ONLY PARENTS ANYWAY! (: YOU'VE ALWAYS PROTECTED ME, LIKE THE SONG, AND SOON IT WILL BE MY TURN TO PROTECT YOU.


*Yesterday, my grandmother said the sinner's prayer. I am ecstatic! Ain't that the perfect present for a anniversary?
