“People in America think that a ticket to their country is a blessing rom the gods that everyone in the world is praying for. They don't see the faces of Filipinos when they come back home. They don't see how big their smile are once their places touches down, how they burst out of the airport and soak up that familiar humidity, how they envelop both their families and their country in a hug. Sure, I want to go to college in the US, but it''s not because I hate the Philippines. My country isn't perfect, but I don't think people love their home because it's perfect. People love their home because it's home.”
