An Act of Fearlessness

There come times when we feel that the world is against us, that every single action that we think will be the best for everybody suddenly turns into a failure one. Sometimes, we lost control for the problems that goes through our lives, therefore we lost faith and trust to the person whom we didn’t think will do anything and everything for our own sake, a person whom will always be behind us and will never let us down for the difficult things that we encounter every day.

Every single day of my life, I am always thanking God for all the blessings that He gave me, for the food that I eat, for the clothes that I am wearing, for the things I had for school, for the friends that remain loyal to me, and especially for my family, my parents whom will always be there for me.

“My dear wake up, it’s time for school,” my mom said while cooking my food. I wake up fast because I don’t want to be late in school. I wash my face and went to the dining table to eat my food while I my father is fetching water for me. After that I continue eating, take a bath, wear my uniform and I’m ready for school. I ask money from my father and he gave me the exact amount that I needed for school. We always do this every morning since I started going to school, but one day I realized the consequences that the entire human race may bring me, “What if my mom and my dad do not exist in this world? What will I do? What if they left me in the sidewalk when I was a baby like other parents do to their children? What if they start hating me and leave me?” I started asking myself “What if?” but I realized the fact that I am blessed with these parents who will do anything to make me happy, make me strong, teach me to be contented with what I have and will wipe my tears whenever they fall down on my cheeks. I thank God because I am more blessed than anybody because even if we’re not wealthy, our family is still happy and complete.

My parents are the most precious thing in my life, because from the beginning, they gave me this wonderful life that I am having right now. They gave me reasons to survive, they gave me the authority to do things I want to do and to keep things that’s worth fighting for. Heroes, they are just everywhere, but parents they are exceptional because they are one of a kind.
