Day 3 – A letter to my family

Dear Family,

I remember the times when our family goes out on a trip together. I remember how close we all were. I remember when Jun Xiang and I were still very young and the both of you brought us out to play. I love the times when we were all in the car enjoying a car wash from the inside. We all laughed, smiled and hugged. The reason why I said all these in the past tense it’s because they are not happening anymore. Why? Is it because Xiang and I are too old? Let me tell you this, we are never too old not to be loved and hugged. I miss the times when we were a happy family. I miss the old us. It’s as if the both of you had died. Other than providing us financially, you have not provided us emotionally and mentally. When I look at the old photos, a feeling of sadness and nostalgia fills my heart. I swear that when I have my own family in the future, I’ll definitely not do what you have done. I am not only not my Father but my Mother too. I look forward to the day when we all can reconcile again. May God be with this family.

Yours truly,
Edwin
