My Parents

 

            What is the meaning of the word "parent" for most people in our everyday lives? I have heard different opinions from different kinds of people.
             I love my parents despite of their negative features.Sometimes I think that I am forgotten by everyone and in such hard times my mother is there for me.She encourages me and gives me strength in difficult times.I am thankful to God for my parents even though at the moment my father lives in England.Often I don't think what my parents feel and I am not interested in their personal life which is not polite of me.But in this busy world we live it is very difficult to be a kind and gentle person with everyone at one and the same time.
             I owe all my abilities to my parents.If they were not next to me, I would not be the person I am at the moment.As I grow up I understand how much my parents' love means for me.
             But I can see my parents in the opposite way.They often don't allow me to stay in front of my computer till midnight and lots of other things.In such situations I can confess that "I don't love them so much."Later on when I understand that I am not right I can see my parents wish the best for me and my future.They have the experience that I don't have and this helps them to make the right decisions better than I do.
             That is why I think my parents are the most amazing people in the whole world.
