Keep publishing inspiring stories

By Rudy Arizala

The present "recycled" piece on Emilie Gurango, M.D., as well as that of the Villeno brothers earlier published in the MIF Website show that good education, faith, hardwork, indomitable spirit and concerned for others are the open-secret why some Pinoy expats succeed abroad or in foreign lands.

There is no easy way to success either at home or abroad.

Keep on publishing such kind of stories as source of inspiration and hope to others.

America, as a refrain goes, is not only "a land of the free" but also a "home of the brave." Those who are not afraid to meet challenges, overcome difficulties, for as inscribed in the U.S. dollar bill "In God we trust."

Editor's Note: If you miss the inspirational stories on our kababayans, please click on the "Kababayan" page on the sidebar to read about Emilie Gurango, the Villeno Brothers and Ading and Tiney Cuento. FYI our homepage usually holds only about six articles, which are then distributed to various pages on the website. If you know the month an article was posted, you can check out that particular month. Otherwise, please use the "Search" option at the bottom of the sidebar and search your topic of interest.

We also would like to hear from you. One thing that keeps us from becoming discouraged with our labor of love is if we hear from our guests. Let us know how we can improve this community service, or whatever. Or do you think this is another exercise in futility that we described in one of our articles?
