Letter To My Mentor
(This letter is for my big sister who has been like a mother figure/best friend to me.)
Dear Kika,
The reason why I am typing this letter is to let you know how thankful and blessed I am to have a sister like you in my life. You have no idea how much I look up to you. Sometimes I may not be (lovie dobie and kissy dobie) showing emotions, but everything I know, I must say that I do thanks to you. We both know that a lot of young people look up to you and sees you as the mother or mentor they've never had. I know that sometimes the thought of you not having children on your own may kill you and your hopes, but only God knows what he's preparing you for. When the time comes, it'll come and it'll be great.
The reason why you're so special to me and I look up to you is because of the value you have put in my life, the advises, the smiles, the time and effort you have always given me are priceless. I know that I can be a pain the behind sometimes. Just know that as I was growing up I always wanted to be just like you. You're a friendly, kind heart individual. You don't care if you have to stop your life to give time to others, you don't care if you have to stay without eating to feed others, and these are the things that even if they are hard for me to do, I'm catching from you.
By you being there for me, I can really say that as a young woman I've became more responsible, and selfless. I don't only think of my self anymore. Now I stop and think of others feelings and needs. Before I had a super ego, but I can say that I don't anymore. I am learning and working on being a better listener, and talking more calm. Before I didn't like listening and forgiving, but you have taught me that it is not worth it to hold grudges because at the end I will be hurting only my self. And yeah you was right. Thank you for always being there when I didn't have my mothers figure and for having my back without ever judging me and for holding my bad moods at times. I love you sooooo much! I may not be perfect, but I will continue to work on me.

Dedication
This one will go to the one
who has always had my back,
no matter of the circumstances has always
stayed by my side.
I am grateful to you because
of the huge
heart you have,
I don't know where I'd be if I didn't have
your advice.
I may not always seem to
appreciate your kind words,
but you are my world.
Thank you for loving me,
accepting me,
respecting me,
and staying right next me.
Words will never explain
how important and special you are.
Kiara,
ReplyDeleteGreat post. Very sincere letter to your sister. I hope you consider sharing these kind words with her. Your writing is very clear and honest. Great job.
Try to infuse more details into your writing, though. Is there a particular story that you could bring up about your sister? What specific ways has she helped you?
Think about adding more detail.
Your poem, an ode, is good, but it does not have a set rhyme scheme. You were asked to making a rhyming ode, so please try to stick close to the instructions, so that you receive the full credit that you can earn.
You can do it.
Think about these suggestions and how you can improve each week.
