NINETEENTH YEAR OF MY LIFE

I wrote this on the day of 19th year of my life. I thought that my 19th birthday wouldn't be complete if I didn't write this. Maybe this note will show you little bit of my mellow side.
I was born in a small hometown in the South Sumatera, Lahat city. I'm person with nothing, I was born with all my imaginations and my dreams. And I just realized that I am 19th years old now and I'm still alive it makes me think that I have something and I want to thank for it.

Maybe this is the first time any of you reading about me saying thanks to Something or Someone up there, who gives me a lot of blessings or even the smallest luck that I never realize, thank you.
I would like to say thank you very much to God. Who gave me chance to always improve my self, gave me health until now. Thanks to my parent, even they were having hard time. They always tried to give me the best they could, to teach me about the world. Thanks to my mom who always encourages me with her endless love. Thanks to my dad, always work hard for me and my family. Even when He is old enough. Mom and Dad I will keep my oath to make you happy and proud that I AM YOUR SON! Please wait a little bit longer for me, I'm on my way. Yes, I'm on my way. Thank you!

For my older brother I know that you have a lot of pressures from dad because you are the oldest one. But don’t take it personally, bro. You can share it with me. I know that you always try to protect me and old sis. But now we are old enough to handle anything. So you can share it to me. Thanks for holding it for so long, and I’m sorry for my childish behaviour back then. Thank you!
For my older sister, hi sis. You are the cutest older sister that I have. It makes me want to protect you and makes you happy forever! Thanks for protecting me in front of Mom and Dad back then, when I still wanted to just go out and play, thanks for your effort. Thank you!
