Thank You
Dear mum and dad,
I wanted to write this thank you letter because I truly never said thank you enough. I do not know how to start this because even though it has always been a habit of me to thank for every small thing to everyone, it is still a struggle to thank out loud when it comes to situations like these. But I think it is very common that how saying thank you or I love you to our family is very rare and somehow difficult when we are saying these to friends all the time. So, with this letter I want to say everything that I usually can’t. When I had to write a letter to a contributor to my life, I couldn’t think anyone that has been this influential to me other than you guys. Thank you for investing so much in raising me. For all of the small and big things you have sacrificed from yourself to give to me, which I wasn’t even able to understand at that time. But when I am writing this, beside all the amazing things you have made for me I am also writing this for some of the things happened between us and left me broken and hurt in their own way. Which I believe that I wouldn’t be who I am without them. But regardless of everything, dad, thank you for believing in me and always telling me that I am capable of everything when I did not even believe in myself. Thank you for always supporting me and trying to put yourself in my position and comforting me. Thank you for working so hard so that I would have better opportunities. Thank you, mom, for always putting me first when I wasn’t even able to tell how much you were putting your life on hold for these. Thank you both for believing that I have the talent to reach my goals even at the times when I hesitated and tried take a step back, but you pushed me forward. Without your support, without the way you raised me, the values, the lessons you thought me I wouldn’t be who I am today. And I am so grateful for everything you have done for me, for your existence.
Thank you again for everything that I did not thank enough till this day. With lots of love.
Your daughter, Zeynep.
