Penelope Almonte

I hope you won’t get tired of fighting for us, for the love we’ve built throughout the years. It tells me it’s all worth it.

Thank You Lord for not always making life fair. For allowing us to experience hardships so we may appreciate everything we worked hard for.

You are not only my sibling, you are my best friend. You are my confidante, my cushion, my motivator.

Do not hesitate for a second to do what YOU think is right for you. And never ever apologize for putting you first. 

Thank you for letting me see that you are with me not because there is no one else but because you do not want anyone else.

Thank you for showing us your love every chance you got.

I know you are here, and you know I am there.

I will move you to one corner of my heart: your corner.

This, no matter how much it does not make sense at the moment, is your clean-slate beginning.

I learned that the only person I should be asking for what I deserve is me. My happiness should not depend on someone’s actions.

I won’t try to justify my actions by saying you had a hand in this too. We may have pushed each other to the edge, but I was the one who chose to walk away.

You are exhausted. Being a “better version” of yourself is consuming every ounce of energy in you. You are disillusioned. You have come to dislike yourself. Or maybe, you do not recognize yourself anymore.
