Viết Thư cho Cha Mẹ



                 Dear Dad and Mom,

                 Thank you for the retreat letter that you wrote me! I really
                 liked  hearing  from  you  :)  Unexpectedly,  I  genuinely
                 enjoyed the retreat and it was a real eye-opener for me as
                 a Catholic. Giáo Lý classes have been fun and nice since
                 I  have  several  friends.  I  wish  I  was  able  to  have  my
                 Confirmation classes in real life, because my classmates
                 were so fun and sweet once I was able to meet them in the
                 retreat in real life. Yes, I’m excited about Confirmation
                 and can’t wait to be fully immersed as a member of the
                 Catholic  Church.  I’m  thinking  of  volunteering  at
                 whichever  church  we  go  to  once  we  move,  because  it
                 seems like it’s a really cool experience to be a Catholic
                 youth group leader. I used to not enjoy going to Church
                 because I didn’t understand anything and was constantly
                 bored, but recently I’ve been able to interpret the gospels
                 and homilies that thầy và cô give. Thank you for assisting
                 me in my journey of being a Catholic, and I’ll always help
                 and care for you out when you need it <3

                 Love,

                 Evelyn




                Dear Mom and Dad,

                Thank you for all the times you held my hand and my heart, and everything in between. For loving me, when no
                part of me wanted to, and when no part of me was able to. For seeing right through my soul, when I had no ability
                to do so. For respecting my space, all the times when I could not open my heart to you. For being my voice, all
                the days I was unable to speak. For laughing with me through my joy.
                Thank you for healing me each and every time. For taking my sadness, and making it your own. For having the
                absolute kindest hearts. For teaching me what being a good person truly means.
                Thank you for all the tough love. For helping me make some of the best decisions of my life. For opening my eyes.
                For helping me push away anything toxic in my life. For leading me to understand what I truly deserve. I am
                forever grateful.
                Thank you for showing me what unconditional love truly means. For crying with me through my pain. For listening
                to my heart, and comforting it, and never letting it believe that it was alone.
                Thank you for the invaluable advice. For accepting me as I am and loving every part of me.
                Thank you for existing, and for being in the world. Thank you for loving me.

                Love,
                Benjamin
