To my favorite person, Mama

21:33

You deserve so much more than a day, you deserve more than just a cake, more than just a greeting—you deserve the world, and so much more.


But, as a daughter, I would like to take this day as an opportunity for me to say how grateful I am to be raised by such a strong woman like you.


I cannot thank you enough for all the things you have done and sacrificed for me, for the times you had to fetch me on my school just to know i'll get home safe, for the times you had to stop what you're doing just to listen to me, for the times you had to stay up late to take care of me, for the times you had to cry in private when you know I’m hurt or even worse, for when I hurt you.

Thank you for giving me the chance to grow up with love and understanding, for teaching me how to be compassionate, for allowing me to see the beauty of the world through your eyes.

Mama, thank you for knowing my friends, I know you're time is so precious but you still make time to know who people I am up to. Thanks for supporting me, for being there when I was so down. Thanks for staying up late with me just to listen to my stories, from how my day went to how my crush looks at me, thanks for being my bestfriend.

Thank you.

I remember the first time I talked to you about how my heart feels, you shared with me your teenage years in which you met some people. And I thank you for sharing those things with me.

I would also want to take advantage of this special day so that I could tell you how sorry I am for all the things I have done, for being so stubborn, for not being the daughter you wish you had and for not appreciating you enough, when we all know that you deserve so much more.

I want you to know how lucky I am to have a mother who continuously cares for me even during her bad days. I’m sorry for thinking I know so much more, for not realizing how much your words meant, for always believing otherwise, I hope I knew better.

I’m sorry for taking everything for granted, but thank you for never taking that against me. Thank you for patiently allowing me to mature, to grow, and become a better woman.

Thank you for showing me the meaning of empowerment, for showing me the beauty of equality, and the importance of being a lady. Thank you for letting me live the life I want, for letting me make my own story. Thank you for letting me grow up seeing helping is a part of life, for teaching me how to forgive others, but most especially how to forgive oneself.

Thank you for showing me that I am enough, for teaching me that being pretty is not a necessity. Thank you for being my diary❣ Thank you for the unending love and laughter, Ma, I love you❤

Your hug still warms me up the most and my tears somehow dry faster in your arms. I love you because your love is still and will always be the greatest love anyone has ever given me.

Thank you for always being there for everyone, mom. You deserve more than just a day. You deserve a lifetime of thank yous, and I love yous.

Happy Mother's Day Mama!💗

I promise you that one day, you'll get to see me succeeding in life. And you'll be so proud to have me as your daughter.

You deserve the whole world, my heart, my love, my gratitude.

Love,
Bea❤
