DAY SEVENTEEN: Things that make you scared.

(since i missed a day).
DAY EIGHTEEN: Disrespecting parents.

I have my fair share of disrespecting my mom. I feel grateful for all the things she did for me over the years, but I was ungrateful to her by showing my love. Raising me by herself and holding down two jobs when I was younger just to feed me food and put the clothes on my back. It was tough for her to go through such a heartbreak my biological father left her, the finances of raising me, and the emptiness of a father I suffered when I was younger. As I got older i never realized how much she was hurting. She would tell me to do numerous amount of chores and wouldn’t ever let me go out to hang with my friends, but in reality she just wanted to prepare me for growing up, learning how to take care of myself when she’s not around, and also to protect me by not letting me go out so late. I respect my mother in every way and I love her to death for taking care of me. 

It furies me to see some arrogant teenager not caring about their parents and disrespecting their parents everyday by not listening to them or anything. It makes me feel so angry. They go through so much for their children, feeding them, showing them love, and providing them with materialistic goods and whatnot just to get disrespected in return. I think that’s just BS. Your parents did not go through labor then give birth to you for you to disrespect them. You owe them your life; I don’t even know how you can forget that little detail. Smh at people…
