To my filipino/filipina people of the Philippines...

I have to say that I'm looking forward of coming back to the Philippines possibly by next year in August. I realize and know how tough it is for some that make a living in that country, but it doesn't stop us people to enjoy life, party, have fun, to be with our family and relatives. I look and see how many of our filipinos go their way in having to sacrifice working abroad in other countries. I've had some of my cousins that transferred going to Dubai and others that went to study in England. They always remember that home is where the heart is. What I do realize is that no matter how high or small your house is in the Philippines, no matter if it is fixed nice or living in a simple area in a provincial area, it is still an open door to be welcome to. I lived in the deep regions of Bicol, out in the forests, with the coconut trees, small towns, small houses made of stone or even out of branches, I slept on the floors even if it is really hot at night. But I still enjoyed the life with my relatives, my family and great friends. It didn't matter how well someone wore their clothes, it wasn't any different to me for those who wore tsinelas, a simple white tank top and shorts, relating to people who lived a simple life riding their mopeds or mini motorbikes through the rough roads. The beauty of a pinay is what always interest me. The brown skin, her eyes, that smile and her long black hair. Of course it's always good to be careful to know which is the right pinay to be with, some have good and others that have bad intentions. She takes care of her family, shows her love to her nieces and nephews, she dedicates her life to one man she can love, she is there to raise her children so they can grow up to be good at something in life. For the filipino men that get up in the morning to work day or night, carrying loads of bags with cement, road dirt, or even wood to build homes, businesses and much more. They travel distances with their large trucks to make a living, they sacrifice to work to make their wages enough to feed his wife and children. No matter if rich or poor, us filipinos never lose our dignity, we travel worldwide always carrying in our hearts that we of the Philippines live with love and humility. Whether I live or die I will always remember my people and country of the Philippines.
