Some things ARE eternal.

When something ends, it is always painful.
And nothing that anyone says, is gonna lesson that pain one bit.
But even then, your real friends will be next to you everyday.

She brought me food eventhough I hardly touched it.
She brought me out eventhough I didn't buy anything.
She brought me to coffee, and we just sat.
She watched DVD's with me, while I cried.
I was not good company.
But she was always there...
Her presence was comforting.
Her silence, allowed me to grieve.

His family has been more than supportive.
I could not ask for more.
They have accepted me like their own daughter.
Making sure I had something to eat and drink eventhough I could not stomach anything.
Making sure my little boy, Remy had company.
Offering and opening their homes to me.
I love them with all my heart, and will be eternally grateful.

My family, will always, and forever be my pillar of strength.
Even after they are gone, they will forever be.
I know I said that I will never say forever.
Because forever never comes true.
But the love and support from your family - that. is. forever.

If you are looking for the most selfless people in the world.
You need to look no further.
They were right there for you, from the moment you born.
They loved you even before you were born.
They love you even when you wrong them.
They love you even when you say you hate them.
They love you even after you graduate, leave home, get married, have kids.
They love you. Just because.
They never judge. They just love. 

Today, I found out that I passed my exams.
In the most adverse situation, I rose to face the challenge.
I did not need to apply for any special consideration,
Because I knew it the moment I walked out. That I couldn't have failed it.

I have to say that I am proud that I did not give up everything.
I went ahead and sat for the exams,
Because I knew... that even without sleep, without food, without studying.
I should already know my stuff!
I am doing this for my future.
I am doing this for my family.
I am doing this for the people who care for me.
I am doing this for myself.

And I. did. it.
And a million thanks for those who stood by me during my darkest moments.
And are still standing by me now.
I am home. And I am safe.

Yes, loves from parents are selfless, hate to say most of us do not even realize until we lost them. Cheers.
