    You can’t blame him.. anyone who stays in the Philippines for a time being will really get attached not with the country but with its people.

    @kevwanders Před 4 lety +207

    THE PHILIPPINES had impact so much in my life too.. It kinda humbles me in away and appreciate things that we oftenly took for granted, co'z in The Philippines life was tough but you could see that even they'd have little they are still having happy spirit and that blew me away everytime.
    😢

    You made me cry my dear brother! I served my mission 2004-2006 and I remember going home after I finished it. I had similar feelings and experiences like you did! I can tell you loved your time as a missionary but also the people you served!

    Aaaww... Dude you can come back here in the Philippines ANYTIME you want! You can take a vacation or even when get old for retirement.. Kaya mo yan pare! 👊

    I fully understand how this young man feels. I was one of them 24 years ago. Service has to be one of the highest act of love among human to human interaction.

    Every missionary goes through the stress of coming home. A part of you stays in your mission, and it's tough. And a part of your mission stays in your heart. It will always be there. Its tough, even after 10-20-30 years but keep a part of it in your heart and you'll be ok.

    Thank you for doing mission in the Philippines. Bless your beautiful heart. I am Filipino who is living in the US for 32 years now but Philippines is home sweet home for me. The simple and relax life are what I miss the most. People are walking around without money but with a big smile and positive energy. Very contagious.

  • @corazonabitan7317
    @corazonabitan7317 Před 6 lety +64

    The Holy Spirit is always with you. Those tears are tears of joy. Come back. We Filipinos love you and we gonna miss you.

  • @reynaldonacion
