He didn't tell me how to live; he let me live and helped me on the process.
If I ever feel like letting go he won't let me fall. When all hope is nowhere to be found, he'll hold me till the hurt is gone. I'm confident enough to say all these things because unlike anybody else, I knew him from the strands of his hair to the tip of his toes. And this guy I've been talking about is no one but Tatay. :)
No adjective could describe how much I respect and love him for who he is and how he raised me and my brother. He is more than supercalifragilisticexpialidocious I mean, he's PERFECT. A father and husband he was, still he paves the way to be a friend and a play mate to me. At times he has this fatherly tone when he gives me a talk and I know that every single thing of it is true. I don't know but I think all of it make sense.
I sometimes try to be the daughter that he would also be proud of not in a way that he would tell his friends that i got this and that. Not in that way, I just don't like it. I want it to be somewhat personal but not so overrated. I tend to create cards on his special days and so long as I could, I do what he wants me to do. It is not just to play the game safely but also because I wanted to. On his birthday I want to buy him things that he always buy: home maintenance supplies because he's not so materialistic and I don't know anythings that he want. Also, I will never forget to make him feel that I love him though I don't say it all the time.
I can't imagine life without you and mom. I hope you'll always be safe and sound even the day go dark. I may not always tell you I love you but I do. Sometimes I make you feel bad and I'M SO SORRY for that. I don't mean it I swear. Also for all those times you made me feel invincible, secure and limitless, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. And though you may not always say it, I know and I feel that you love us too. I just can't phrase it in any other way, I LOVE YOU 'TAY.
Dear Dad,
You still top my list of the coolest people. Even before football players and superheroes. Because you let me do things and let me learn from my mistakes. There are times I get too excited and let you down. But you still give me YOUR BEST. And for that, I just wanted you to be PROUD of me. It is my way of giving back the love you give me everyday. Also, superheroes aren't real, but YOU ARE. In the future when I'm grown up, I'll protect you and take care of you, like you always do with me. I love you Dad.
Your number one fan, Mai.
I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH AND ALL THESE TIME, I MEAN IT. ∞
Je t'aime
