I am amazed
at my abilities.
I never knew I am so strong.
Maybe, due to how I was raised.
My strength came out through all the wrong
circumstances that attacked on my vulnerabilities.
I have never seen people consoling
people who cry
in my family
in my life.
Rather, they hide
their vulnerabilities
by saying that those who cry
are those who are weak.
But, I take pride
in being different from them
because I follow what is essentially right
and don’t follow cultural limitations
and stereotypes.
So, since how I was raised
was wrong in most senses,
I have decided to re-parent
myself into becoming more human
than mechanical and practical.
I will henceforth take care of my upbringing
through re-parenting
the child inside me.
