so recently i read this post on thought catalog. it made me think. we often see mothers showing gratitude to daughters, thanking them for their existence and the joy they bring and add to the mothers' lives. yet how often do you see a daughter thanking the mother for all she's done? the rebellious puberty stage is often overstated by modern-day media and though we age and mature over time, we still take our mothers for granted.
it was twelve in the morning when i started writing this. i was tired and frustrated with schoolwork and i've decided to take a detour on the thought catalog website and i found the post on the letter to a daughter. i wanted to show the world there are grateful daughters in the world. i'm not saying the i'm the best daughter anyone can have. by all means, no i am not, but i notice things other people don't (or so i hope i do).
i'd say i'm ecstatic and elated (apply all fancy worlds that mean i'm over the moon in the relative phrase). thought catalog has always been where i hide out from my problems or from my work. and now i have a profile there. SAM LEE. right there. my name on thought catalog. not gonna lie, i've been refreshing the page non-stop for two days now and there are 200 something shares and likes on my article. not too shabby i'd say for a newbie :)
after this, i've thought my life through. maybe if law doesn't work out, i'll be a cat-loving feministic foodie who hates on the world. maybe i can actually write for a living. who knows?
