It isn't easy not being able to spend the holidays with your family. A lot of them haven't spent Christmas for like 4-12 years.

I guess it's quite easy for a single woman like me. But I can only imagine the agony and the longing of my fellow kababayans here who has little children in Pinas, waiting for them to come home. We can only hope that someday, we could all go home and have a decent life there in the Philippines. For now, we're doing our best here abroad for ourselves and for our family.Julie. --https://www.blogger.com/profile/02442804917162610530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20038298.post-68761416711104112792012-01-22T23:45:41.765+08:002012-01-22T23:45:41.765+08:00I've seen the commercial and it really touched...I've seen the commercial and it really touched my heart.

But that's life at least now we have technology, we can see them and talk to them online unlike before during my father's time when we can only talk and it cost a fortune to call him. We are still fortunate nowadays but of course it wont still replace the happiness of being "there" with them..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11315121781287323174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20038298.post-30562950573697267042012-01-22T10:12:10.008+08:002012-01-22T10:12:10.008+08:00That Coca-Cola ad actually got me teary-eyed the f...That Coca-Cola ad actually got me teary-eyed the first, and even the second time I watched it.
