Sacrifices: A Mother's Unbreakable Bond & Love #shorts

I went through that as well. My mom, well, aside from being a political activist and had to leave the country several times, she had to leave the country to also sustain us. And she missed a lot of my birthdays, graduations. She was not able to see all of that. And there were just times that I would just long for a mom who could hug me or comfort me or say, you're doing good, and, or not, you know. And, you know, just thinking that these parents are sacrificing their own comfort to be separated from their families just to sustain is such such a unique experience, I would say, and really sad experience as well. I don't think that any family deserves to be separated from their immediate families. It's really, really hard, and unfortunately a lot of Filipinos have to go through this because of the poverty and all of the corruption that we've inherited from, you know, the colonizers. I would— I will call that out because Filipinos are not inherently corrupt. We are such a community-minded nation and people, and capitalism has really done us really bad. And you know that this does not only show up in the Philippines, it's all over the world. The world is revolting right now because we've had enough of this greed, of these powerful people who just want profit for themselves and not thinking about the rest of us.
