Merry Christmas to you all.
It has been more than a year since we were away from our families, more than a year away from all our friends and loved ones, and its been more than a year that we are held prisoner in this foreign country (United States of America) awaiting trial.
Contrary to the belief of some that we gave other people and company names to be prosecuted here in the United States in exchange of our freedom, these are all not true, and we know how difficult it is to be imprisoned here in this foreign country, away from families and friends, and we never wish for anyone to be in the same difficult situation as we are in right now especially to any of our co-Filipinos.
Ang hirap po ng sitwasyon namin dito at kailangan po namin ang inyong dasal, nawa’y bigyan kami ng lakas para bumangon at lumaban sa araw-araw. Sobrang inggit po namin sa mga tao dito sa bilanggoan dahil kahit na papaano ay nabibisita sila ng mga pamilya at kaibigan nila. Sobrang miss na miss na po namin ang mga pamilya at mga kaibigan namin. This is the first time that we have been away from our families for a long time at sana’y isang araw maka-uwi na kami at makasama kayo. Hindi naman kami masasamang tao to deserve all of this.
Piece of advice, savor every moment that you have with your families and loved ones ngayong pasko at bagong taon dahil yan ang isang pinaka mahalagang bagay na wala kami ngayon.
God bless us all.
