All the upbringing and that they made me to the person I am now- that is such a big gift. I simply have to thank them!
People doing this are also doing these things:

LuneFromage dances the line between two worlds...
I have been trying to make a concerted effort to help around the house more. I love my mum VERY much and want to make her life easier. When she asks me to do something I do it without complaining. I ask her if she needs help, and even insist upon helping. I try not to argue about small things as much. I do things without being asked. These are small gestures, but I feel they help and let my mum know that I want to help and care about her.

we went to the market together with my sisters, drank coconut-like drinks, and went to have fruits at the roadside. then we drove home, winding on the road, beautiful view from the top when we stopped..
before i left, she was there, sitting on top of the stairs. after i said goodbye, she said, “come here”.
“why?” i said.
“just come”.
she held my face to hers.
“i just want to have a good look at you before you leave”.
speechless with a smile..
the best feeling any person could have before leaving home to study.
i want to move my mother out of the house we grew up in to a larger home in a safer neighborhood. She wants to have enough bedrooms for at least 2 of her children and their families to stay when they come home every two years for our family reunion. She needs at least 2 bathrooms. She also needs an enclosed garage for safety and to protect her car from the elements.
My mom also wants a nicer car with power windows and a CD player.
I also want to get a nicer car for my father who lives in LA.

I want to bless my parents for all the hard times they’ve endured on my behalf. I want to spend silly amounts of money on them and buy them everything they need…take care of their bills…send them on a vacation…buy them a hot tub. get them a new car – lavish them. They certainly deserve it…especially since right now, all of their extra money is going to me.
fiercelyfighting PERSPECTIVE. NB <3
i should probably start by giving back the love they have given me, with a better attitude and more patience. i say that but its always so hard when im talking to them they never seem to understand where im coming from..!

They honestly don’t deserve it.
I happily give up this goal.
my parents are now old and need help and support. i go every day do the things they need but still leave them with their own independance which keeps them with their dignity, they appreciate everything i do for them but it also gives me a lot as i see them ticking along to their best ability. they have supported me through all my life and its now time i paid my dues and i do it with love,there comes a time when we all leave and i want to be there till the end knowing i gave then everything i could to make things easier on them in their latter years

I will never be able to do this. There isn’t enough time or even money in the world for me to repay them for everything they have done for me. But I want to try. :) They are incredible and I hope someday I can be at least half the parents they were and continue to be for me. :)
