“To live a well heeled life is everybody’s dream anyway, so why shouldn’t you try?" asked Uncle Peter, suggesting that I pursue going with them to Victoria sometime next year.I don’t want to fraud myself and pretend that I don’t spare consideration to work abroad in lure of better compensation. True: I want to experience working in a different country, get assimilated in a different mores, and gain a wider and deeper perspective in terms of my career goals. But choosing to upgrade my profession means choosing to leave home.
That, I dare not want to.
It is the call of duty nowadays that demands majority of the people around to spend a few months training in Singapore. Had I became as healthy as everyone, I would have undergone same dilemma of missing home and squeezing that entire foreign environment to a huge working place. If a friend’s absence breaks me sore, then the loved ones’ longing is just more than unimaginable!
Choosing to leave home to fill in the basket on the table, as I always say, is and will never be my option.

That's right Dai Ning it will never be an option.All of us have been given chances in our lives but in the end it will always be our choice.In our lives each of us has different priorities and to choose which one depends on you alone :)
Hello Sie!
I for once suffered from painful separation when my Mom worked overseas when we were young. And so then on I promised myself not to be anywhere to work except Philippines. There truly is no place like home.
right!
i want to stay home too with my HOME!..so i'll be retiring when i reach 25 and be with my HOME..you know--my HOME!..*blink blink* *waving*
i'm not closing my door to go abroad for work. But,I'm doing my best to stay here and find resources to attain my goals.
you know, at the end of the day, what you want is your home.
What makes the leaving difficult is home.
