Working Abroad! Wala na bang ibang paraan?

In the past few months I have been jumping from one agency/consultancy right after the other hoping that I could land my feet on a country that would compensate me and my service appropriately. 

If only Filipino Nurses are well compensated no one would wanted to work abroad. I think the hungriness of a lot Pinoys' to help and support their families is their living principle for working in a foreign land while fighting with racism , detachment and homesickness. 

I have spoken to a lot of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) online and the struggle is not very admirable.  They take care of people they don't know while the desire of taking care of their own families leaves them sleepless at night.

Oh well, I failed in different angles. It's either I lack the experience , my documents are incomplete or maybe its just working overseas is  not really for me. I am very much delighted to be able to help sick people (in Phil.) through my job and little by little I can ease their sorrows and pain but I am also dreaming to attain greener pasture for the love of the one above us.

BUT maybe it isn't my time yet. However while I am still in my home grown country, I will spend my time , my service, my loyalty, and my love to the people who matters to me most.
