Nothing beats in making every Filipino feel great than being with our families especially this Christmas. Especially for those who are working abroad and stayed there for years, maybe going home or spending home especially on Christmas is one of their wishes. Well, our home is considered the sweetest, the loveliest and the best place in the world. In spite of its shabbiness, we still prefer it to any beautiful places on the globe. We would sacrifice all the comforts and luxuries of a modern building in a distant place in exchange for the simple dwelling place, our sweet home!
This is the reason why ABS-CBN and Ensogo created a ‘bridge’ for these families, and help them have a special and meaningful Christmas. This is the ABS-CBN Gift-Together website. The Gift Together website enables family members back home here in the Philippines to create wish lists of gifts they have been hoping for. They can then submit this wish list via the site to their OFW relatives, and share the deepest wishes of their hearts. Their relatives abroad, on the other hand, may choose to gift their family members some or all of the wish list items directly on the site. In essence, the site ‘connects’ family members through the thoughtful and generous act of gift-giving.
Nothing cannot prevent us from recalling pleasant and cozy evenings spent beside our dear ones. We are tied to our home by bonds of affection and love: our mother is always ready to accede to our wishes and look after our daily needs, and our father willing to sacrifice everything to make us happy and comfortable. Most of our pleasant associations are often connected with our homes. For it was there that most of us spent the happy days of our childhood and youth. Imagination clothes these scenes with loveliness and throws a charm of romance over them. So it is that, wherever we may roam, there is no place like home!
