I am not perfect, I wish I am for my parents. However life is not perfect, sometimes almost perfect for others ( I guess). I am a good daughter that is all I can say. Like today, we do have financial problems, however I was able to borrow money to provided to my dad so that we can send it to my grandmother this coming All souls day. However my dad thought it came from my savings. Well I guess, if she did not tell my dad. However the company where I will send money is offline. I have work today and its only after my shift where I can work on it. However it was late, I called my dad and asked if I can send through western union, unfortunately its a province and no western union yet. My dad sound so frustrated its like he wants to find another way or else im dead. Ugh! I do not want to go home now, I feel that I will disappoint him. I tried several company where I can send it and im hopeless. Im good i know because im trying everything that I can. Hope my dad will understand.

Practical difficulties will arise for every one. That does not decide whether we are good or perfect. In your mind, you sincerely wanted to send money and made efforts. So you ARE a PERFECT DAUGHTER.

You are a wonderful daughter to go to all that trouble to make your dad happy. I think you are a perfect daughter. I am sure your dad will cool down after a while- just tell him that you tried everything to send the money, which is the truth. I am sure you can send the money on Monday.

hey i wish i could be a perfect daughter.. although at times i think that i try to be always but still i wish i could just make my dad a bit more happy or wished my mom would be alive and i could have fulfilled her wishes.. but probably thats not the cup of my tea... yet my dad has very few complaints for me and so did my mom had. i try to make everyone happy... i know the bitter truth of life.. life is a journey of a few days but several miles... we are already travellers... so the more you go the more you come closer to your destination.. try n make your parents happy.. they are the angels who gave you this wonderful journey..!!!
