This song makes me think about the times that I used to spend with my grandma Dolly at the holidays either in Phoenix or in Green Bay and all the good times that we used to have. Every time that I listen to this song I can see her up in heaven smiling down on me and it makes me feel so good.
even though this is a christmas song, i still love to listen to it no matter what time of year!! my mom got me hooked on this song. thank ya momma(: i love my family! may every family be celebrated everyday(: and i love my hometown Dallas, TX! (:
@greg8698 I hope things have worked out for the better by now, the same thing happened to by best friend coincidentally and his daughter is the same age as yours. I'm sure she knows deep in her heart that she only has one daddy and that's you.Knowing the female persuasion,they always return to the ones that loved them, especially the unconditional love of their fathers.Best of luck and Happy Holidays!
@GiantsSB2010 He may a little differet from when he left, a good brother will love him for who he is. You ask how I , know, I know...... I was the one who came home ,it took a while to get back to being me
beautiful song and this video is very touching...family is the most important thing in life be it by blood or by your heart family is home...God bless you all and I celebrate you all home....
this song got thru some rough time's when i was in the navy... late 70's thru the 80's... is that dubai?... are yor family guest workers there?.... i was in abu dabai for a few week's.. and lots in the pi
I heard this song many years before my first child Aaron was born. But, selected it as his song because he was born on Oct. 31, 1990, 10 weeks early weighing only 3lbs. 2oz. He had to spend 6 weeks in the NICU unit at a local hospital. The Neonatologist had no idea as to when he would get to come home, if at all. Finally, on December 9, 1990 we got the call to let us know he would be home for Christmas. It was the best Christmas ever.
Time has flown by. 3 weeks from now he will graduate from high school before heading off to college in the fall. He has no idea of how much I love him and how proud I am of him.
greg8698 I am sure your son knows but never let a chance or day go by that you do not tell him or show him, you sound like a wonderful dad...much love and luck to your son and to you.
@sinfuldelights , thanks for your comments. 5 years ago my wife of 20 years and my childhood sweetheart for 12 years before we got married, decided she no longer wanted to be married anymore. So, she got her divorce and I got a broken heart. As much as I love my two children, I very rarely see them or hear from them. In fact it has now been 9 mos. I would cherish just a phone call on Christmas just to hear them say, "Merry Christmas Dad."
@dju4him, I wish too. But, my daughter called me this evening and told me that she didn't want me involved in her life anymore and that she now considers her moms 4th husband her dad even if he is a lazy bum who doesn't work, sits on the couch and drinks beer all day while my ex supports him. For 15 years I treated that little girl like she was my little Princess, going out of my way to do special things for her. My heart is now smashed into a billion pieces. Merry Christmas, Greg.
Cool photos, nice family smiles....continued happiness and personal success. Oh, yeah! thanks for sharing..it comes across what great form of happiness can look like.

I totally agree with Cakers. My wife (a Tondo Girl) and I are trying to guess where this was taken. The opening scenes look like Dubai. (it didn't look like Abu Dhabi) We noticed the Manila Inn,Manila Zoo, MNL Bay, A scene that looks like Boracay. Thank you for sharing this!!
The first time I heard this song I was at work and I moved to California three years earlier. I wanted to go home to Nebraska for the holidays but I couldnt. I cried like a baby.
Having lived in New York for almost 20 years, I still refer to the Philippines as my "home" where most of my family are. And although I do have some family and friends here in the US,I stay close to my roots. There is no greater feeling in the world than knowing your family loves you.Its true for me and I can see from your post that this is true for you as well Bratinella. Thanks for sharing. And that is my most favorite song!
Thanks for your comment darcyclass. The Philippines is truly a home for me. The cozy feeling of my humble home, where I can hear the hearty laughter of my kids and where the comforting love of my family abounds, is truly incomparable to any place I've been in the world. There's really "No place like home".
This song not only sounds good but it creates a feeling of true serenity, tranquility and harmony. Thank you for sharing a much needed and appreciated treasure with us.
This once used to be the song for the now-canceled NBC television series "I'll Fly Away."
