To the best ate in the whole universe,

              Thank you for always supporting me in my study back then, you're the best English teacher I ever had. Thank you for always listening to my stories every time I got home from school. You really know my every day back then, how was my day starts and ends. I never admit who's my crush but I know that you knew. Thank you for your clothes and shoes. Thank you for the cellular phone, earphones, digital camera, and other gadgets you have given. Thank you for your books, I enjoyed them and I learned a lot. Thank you for helping me in college through sending me allowance, that was a little amount of money but that helps me to keep on going and finished my degree.

              I am very sorry for looking in your mistakes every time we have misunderstanding (but it is very seldom). Honestly, I was sad when I know that you are bearing a baby again because I am studying and it is really difficult to babysit while studying (you know I need to maintain my grades) but I am also very happy when the baby was born. I really love your children and you know that. I am very sorry for the times that I complain about your babies. I am sorry for the rants about being tired of cleaning their poop, changing their diapers, washing their clothes, waking up at night to feed them milk, waking up early to bath them before going to school and many more. Right now I am very thankful that I performed it all as part of my responsibility because the fruit of my labor is love. The kids love me and that's beyond measure. I love them so much, no words can explain. I am sorry if my help in terms of finances is limited because you know, I also do help mama and kuya. Ate it is really hard to send money in three houses and with the salary that I have. Maybe I can help some other time. I am sorry for getting angry at you noong napatay si papa.

            I don't know if you will read this letter someday but I want you to know that I am really proud of you. I learn a lot from you. Patuloy lang sa paglalayag at ang isla ng tagumpay ay malapit ng marating.
