    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.
