Do you ever think that a fabulous parents are really exist? If you ask me, I will answer absolutely yes. Why? Because in my opinion we all have a fabulous parents, we just do not realize how meaningful they are. Instead, sometimes they seem invisible to us. I am so thankful that I have an incredible parents like my mom and dad. I will not ever try to exchange them with whatever offered to me in this world.
I will tell you some of my experiences, my parents got divorced when I was still sit in kindergarten. Since then, I lived with my mother in a different house. But sometimes I still visit my father and stay there on the holiday time. Afterward, four years later my mom married again with another man so I have a step-father. I believe that nor my mother or my father want this to happen, but they just already did not match each other anymore. They tried to fix it, but nothing changes. At that time I cannot accept their decision and I was embarrassed with my family condition, but a few years later I realized that there is nothing I should be ashamed or regret.
After I grew up I tried to understand their position, I did not want to be an egoist person. I tried to imagine if I were one of them, and I knew that their decision did not only hurt me, but it hurt the three of us. I agree that divorce is the best way out for them, it is useless to hang up in a relationship which does not work anymore. It will only hurt both of them and waste time, everything that is imposed will not give a good result. I believe that everything happens for a reason and maybe it's our family fate. Everything comeback to myself, depends on my point of view, and how I respond to face all my problems. And I choose to deal with it and just be thankful instead of complaining because I think complaining is a very useless behavior, it will not changes anything. It will only makes everything become worst.
And now, after all the incidents I have been through with my family I still feel thankful because not all the people can have those experiences. More or less, it automatically shaped me into a more mature character. And I still really respect my mom and dad, I can see that even-though they are not together anymore but they are still willing to give and do the best for me. Provided what I need, take care of me since I was born until now, take time to choose the best education for me, bring me to the doctor when I am sick, try to cheer me up when I am feeling bad (although sometimes their way is really silly, but I really appreciate it! =P), and there are still sooo many things which I cannot mention one by one because if I do, this will be a never-ending story. I realized that maybe all the things that I mention above is just the little things.
In my life, I often miss all the little things until I read a quote in my friend's blog. It says that "sometimes, all the little things are the most important things in life." Then I realized that my life is really short and I should put more attention not to miss all the precious moments I have. From now on, I really want to spend more time to enjoy with my parents and show that I really love them. Maybe there is an ex-wife or ex-husband, but there is no ex-child. Blood ties cannot be destroyed. So, however your family life is just be thankful and respect all the time you have at present because you will never know what will happen next. ^^
