MY PARENTS
ARE MY SUPERHERO
Everyone
has their ups and downs throughout life. One day you can be having the time of
your life and everything is going your way and the next, life decides to throw
a curve ball at you and everything seems to go wrong. But, one thing that I
have learned over the past 20 years is that parents will be there to support
you and to love you, unconditionally, no matter the circumstances. From the
time I was a little girl, my parents have always encouraged me to go after my dreams,
to be the best version of myself that I can possibly be and reminded me to be
grateful for everything that I have. My parents have raised me to be strong and
independent, just like them. And they have consistently made me feel safe and
loved since day one. I probably don’t remind them enough that I am so thankful
for everything that they do for me, and for all of the life lessons they have
taught me. My parents are my role models. My heroes. And here are just some of
the reasons why.
1.My
parents are my best friends.
Not only are they my mom and dad, but they are
also two of my best friends in the entire world. I can joke with them, I can
laugh with them, I can have fun with them and I love them both as big as the
world.
2.They always tell me the truth.
My parents wont sugar coat anything. Even if its
something that I don’t want to hear. But I know that they have my best interest
at heart when they tell me the things that I need to hear bluntly. And even
though I may not want to believe it at the time, chances are they're right
3.They believe in me, when I don’t believe in
myself.
If I am stressed out about work or college and I
don’t think I can handle life, my parents will be there no matter what, to tell
me that everything will be okay. Ever since I was a little girl my parents have
always had the faith in me that sometimes isn't so easy to have in myself.
4.They assure me that it's okay to make mistakes.
When they answer the phone to listen to me tell
them about my massive fail of the week, or that embarrassing thing I did the
other day, you can be sure they always have a story to tell, of their own
mistakes they made at my age. They have always ensured me that mistakes are all
just a part of growing up, and you will learn valuable life lessons from a lot
of them. So, there is no need to be ashamed.
5.They inspire me each and every day.
I can honestly say that I have never met two
people who are stronger, smarter, more caring, more hard working, or more
inspiring than my parents. From day one I have been looking up to them as the
perfect role models for me. And I know that if I grow up to be half the person
that they both are, then I know I'm doing alright
