hello

June 11, 2009

       Has anyone of you pondered on what matters most to you? Or question whether what you’re doing now is what you really want? Maybe you think I don’t make sense, ok then try this:  

       We work abroad for our parents, family, and love ones. We want to secure everyone’s future. It’s our way of showing our love and performing our responsibilities. So as a substitute to our physical gesture of love like kissing, hugging, caressing, tapping, and the importance of our presence when they need us, we send them our monthly allocation. We think that makes them happy and that’s what they need. What if it is not what they truly want from you???  Like for instance our parents are not getting any younger and we set aside being with them because we think working abroad is just temporary. We want to earn first before coming back in preparation for the “they live happily ever after”. What if before that time comes it was too late? You are already deprived of the chance seeing your parents again. You are too late to give them the life you have been working for. Then a friend of you will tell you in your parents wake they have longed to see you because that is what they truly want.

          Hahay…. hirap din noh, I don’t know if you guys have processed all issues in your voyage away from home. Maybe I am just reminding myself and also you guys of our true reason why we are away. Reconsider this: Initially just for six months, then extended for 1 year, it became 2, 3, and 4 years and it became forever. Unconsciously we started to enjoy the money we are earning and get used to the life we are in. Eventually our lifestyle now becomes our standard of life.  And the kind of life we had in our mind before has been replaced by the life we have been having abroad.

Best Regards,

Chester
