Reality creeps in...


This time of the year, I somehow appreciate being in Dubai. Yes I enjoyed the glorious openness of this place for the past 9 months but never have I realized really the magnitude of the freedom we enjoy here. Imagine somewhere in the Middle East, I am attending Simbang gabi! Unbelievable. I remember Daddy's frustrating stories as he celebrates Christmas every year in the place where even Bible,rosary and anything with religous picture in it is not allowed. Yep, that sucks! As if feeling home sick for your family is not enough. Anyway here is the picture of the biggest Christmas tree in St. Mary's Church, which I have to emphasize,the only Church in Dubai....
