Letter to Dad

Dear Dad,

I wish that you are still alive today. I terribly miss you so much.

I will be turning thirty on June 8. Thirty is the new midlife.I am making a choice to take a chance so that my life will change for the best even for just a bit.

Dad, I have finally decided to find work in Manila and bring Mom with me. Oh how much I wanted to stay at home and live comfortably in home sweet Legazpi but the recent events that happened in our family and the circumstances that Mom and I aregreatly encourages me to make a bold move.

I have taken a back seat and just let everything fell into place. Maybe its now time for me to take the steering wheel again and go to places that I really like to go. Mom will always be in my passenger seat. Jr, Ting and their child may be in a different journey but will always do our best to be close to each other.

With you, Dad, watching over us, we will reach the right destination. No matter how long, no matter how far it is, and no matter how difficult it is , I will not stop because I want you to be proud of me and I will not do anything that will break your heart and most especially mom's heart.

I love you so much.

Jojo
