Gratitude journal (1) by Zahra

There are many things that I am thankful for but let’s keep it short and talk about only the important ones.

The first idea that came into my mind while thinking about writing my gratitude journal is my parents. I am really thankful for my parents, they mean the world to me. The gratitude that I have for my parents is immeasurable and I make sure that they know that. I am so grateful for their unconditional love and endless patience because they made me love who I am today.

Throughout the years I have tried to make my parents proud of me by studying hard, succeeding in life and be a reliable person but it wasn’t always an easy task to do. So you can say that I have made many mistakes and it was somehow disappointing. However, my parents never judged me or made me feel like a failure. All their actions were actually helping me to see the positive side of life, encouraging me into doing the right thing, supporting my decisions no matter what and making me believe and never give up. 

My parents aren’t perfect and I am not either but we appreciate each other and embrace each other’s company. I can’t do that right now because I am 7000 km away from them but I make sure to let them know that how I feel and that I am here because of them and that I am studying really hard to make them proud of me. I hope that I am doing a good job!
