The following are two stories of Filipinos who had been living the good life in the U.S. until one day they realized their chase for the "American Dream" is pointless.
I am posting their tales because, while they have different motivations for coming back, they share a common denominator: They came back while everybody is leaving.
In my mind, this has always been an anomaly of sort. Filipinos abroad seem to love their country more than most of us back here. These videos drive home this point.
Dr. Bautista said it right. All of us -- Americans, Europeans, Filipinos -- we are born to only one country. If we don't love ours, who will?
Enjoy!
