Someone I Look Up To

in #hive-1080452 years ago

Good day Hivemates. How's your day going? Have you end your day productively? As for mine, just the usual day I have; work and side hustling. Anyways, I've got a new blog for today again and this talks about my Family. For this blog, let me share with you my reasons why I am looking up to this wonderful people of my life.

As for everyone knows I am the eldest son of my parents at this moment because of what happen to my older brother. And as for being the eldest son of my parents I have my responsibility to become a good brother and a good example to my two siblings. Alongside with that I have my someone that I look up to and I really wanted to become which will justify the statement of being responsible one and that is my Parents.

We grew up in a simple yet beautiful and loving family. I remembered during my childhood days, we lived in a small and simple house made with half concrete and bamboo with a small sari-sari store on the front. The job of my father was a habal-habal driver and a full time Tuba gatherer and my mother was a housewife and she is the one who takes care of us and our small store. My father and mother works really hard for us so that they can give all the supports and needs that we wanted up until we became matured enough.

During my teenage days they were really strict on us to some things especially on the way we answer and speak to them and to the other people. I've never heard my parents cursed at us or speak any bad words towards us even until now. They never allowed us to play or even touch a playing cards so that we will not learn how to gamble. They never wanted us to live just like my mother's family. My grandfather was a serious gambler, "when there is gambling event he was there and he always have the money for the gambling stake but when it comes to his family, he refuses to give even a cent", that's what she said to us. They never wanted us to become like that and they never failed because all of us, are not into any types of gambling, thanks to my parents. They also don't want us (especially me), to become fond of having a lot of friends which will only give me an influence to do gambling or drinking alcoholic drinks especially smoking and other unnecessary things.

During my college days, this was the time that I really saw my parents struggling on us because we are four studying in college that day (my older brother, me, my younger sister and my cousin) while our youngest sister was still on high school. But despite that situation, they didn't manage to say that we should stop attending school. Instead they have exerted more of their efforts so that all of us will finish our studies. More than that, my parents didn't hesitate to help my cousin to take up a college course due to lack of finances and I really admired how it turns out. My cousin was able to graduate with his chosen course and now enjoying salary from his job same as us.

Up until now I still see and feel their hardwork despite that we are, little by little, reaching our dreams because of what they have done for us. I am very thankful to my parents for they have done so many things on us. They nurtured and take care of us when we were little. They did not abandoned us and they never failed to take care of us. They gave us all the supports and needs to us even though they don't have anything for themselves. That's why I salute them and I want follow their steps on how they treat their family and the other people, when I myself will become parent later.

That would be all for this blog. Thank you for reading. Peace and good health be with us always.
