LOVE LETTER to grandma



Dear Mang,

I know that you are not here and that you have gone home to be with the Lord, but I just wanted to take the time to say thank you for everything that you have done for the whole family, especially for me. Thank you so much for loving me unconditionally, for always being there when I needed you so, and for supporting me all the time. Thank you for the undying patience for all my stubbornness and childishness. Thank you for those years that you accepted the responsibility of taking care of me and treated me as a princess of your own.
 For me you are the greatest grandma, you were a deep loving wife, a caring and patient mother of 3, and a gracious grandmother of 8, a wonderful aunt, a kind sister-in-law, a beautiful niece, an embracing mother-in-law, a committed friend, a faithful and honorable woman of God. You spoke words of life, kind, uplifting and encouraging.
You always saw the best in me and I thank you. When I made a mistake, you corrected me in love. Your wisdom and patience helped me to make sense of this thing we walk through called life.
 I love you, I always do. I regretted that I didn’t take advantage of telling you how much I love you when you were still alive. But I know I still have the chance to prove how grateful I am for all the things that you have given and taught me, and I value all those things so much. Your memories will be for ever cherished and remembered. I will always treasure the moments and times that you’ve shared. Mang you will remain forever in our hearts. Your hardship and sacrifices for me will always be my inspiration and motivation as I travel this journey that started with your words, for you always were my believer and an up lifter. I know you’re still here watching and guiding me as I reach my goals.
           I'm going to miss you more than words can ever express, but I know that I will see you soon.   I find you often in my dreams and long for a moment in eternity to be caught up in your hug again. I miss you and I love you Mang.
