parents
The boundless love a parent has for their child is matched only by their capacity to embarrass them.
My worst fear happened to me before age 30
My worst fears were losing my parents and marrying the wrong partner. The thought of living without them haunted my dreams. Every night, I whispered fervent prayers, asking God to keep them healthy and strong, to grant me the means to care for them.

My journey as a mum. Content Warning.
You might be wondering why I’m writing about being a mum of five boys. Lots of people have lots of children, right? Yes, that's so true, but ever since I had my first son, I felt like I was embarking on a unique journey, a journey that was punctuated by both chaos and an indescribable joy. It wasn't just the number of boys, but the intense energy, the constant whirlwind of testosterone, the competitive spirit, the unwavering loyalty, and the depth of their love that made me feel like I was living in a world exclusively designed for them — a world where trucks and dinosaurs ruled supreme.

Finding Your Calm By Letting Go of Perfectionism (A Daughter's POV)
My father once told me, “We are not perfect; there’s no perfect parent,” since then, this line has never left me. I’m just a graduating student, aspiring to be many things. I have no kids, I am not a parent, but I am a daughter who has grown up with my parents. We have a good relationship; we communicate when there are misunderstandings and always consider everyone’s opinions. I’ve always admired my parents’ approach to parenting; they are strict but you don’t feel confined.
