Missing my home

I had to be away from home, many many years ago. It was my husband and child (who was still a kid then) who goes to Manila, to visit me. My work was in Manila because i was also trying at the same time to be able to get a job abroad. But after about 4 years, i have to give it up and go home to the province to be with them forever. Thus, i had a new job and from then on started my way of getting closer to our child, who i noticed became a estranged from me. Sad , but i have to accept that it will be that way, because it was just her and her dad at home, during those times when i was away in a far city working. Thank God, i was able to bridge the barrier now.

Oh my God! I was just thinking about my parents when I found this post. You know, bestie, I am also working far from our home, from my parents. I seldom visit my parents because of my very hectic schedule. I am sure my parents will be very happy because this is the first Christmas that I'm going to stay at home since 2006. I will be going home on Monday so that I'll have more than enough time to clean our house. My parents can no longer clean the whole house because they are already old. They can only sweep the floor everyday but it's not enough. I need to do general cleaning before Christmas. I am sure I need few days to finish cleaning all furnitures, rooms, and appliances. I also need to give our three dogs a bath. Whew! What a very exhausting vacation!

i miss home too. After i graduated from college, i landed on a job based out of town. Its just an hour flight but it'll cost me thousands to get home during Christmas or birthdays or anniversaries. I miss the place. Ive been working here for more than three years now but i still love my place back home. I feel so at ease when im there. I planned pn moving back home earlier this year but its just not doable for me. I mean the salary, i pay on my bills now and i sometimes help my mother pay some of hers at home. What im going to earn there is just half of what i earn here. Well, hoping to back home twice next year coz i only do it once per year since. :(

Yeay,compair to you ,i am lucky.I have away from home only one month .I miss home too .Now i'm very busy .because i am preparing for the exam of this sesterme .When you are busy ,you maybe don't miss home so much .Come on !

My longest time away from home was 1 year, and I know how you feel, it gets lonely sometimes but I always try to call them everytime when I have the chance, or have a chat with them via facebook. Things we do to let our family have a pleasant life. I know they would do the same if they had the chance Happy Holidays to you ;)

I haven't tried of being away from home for more than a month. I have tried living away from home but it was only less than a week. I think I really missed home even it is just for few days. hahaha. Maybe it's because I'm not used to it.

i never experience being far away from my family. But according in what i see in my sister she enjoy being in other country because of her Filipino friends living there and she also find her boyfriend in that country,the man is also a pinoy..Shes already living in that country and we can only see her personally when she visit us here in Philippines.

ohh...its so sad beatie .. i can understand that how do you feel this time. it is very hard to live without our family member. we miss all special things of our home. don't worry dear. you will meet your family very soon. take care dear.. god bless you...
