Filipino Overseas Worker: A Hero

I believe that Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) are heroes on their own right.
They are heroes because they sacrificed many things just so they can give their respective families the things they needed. 
They are heroes because they sacrificed to see the happy moments of their families. 
They are heroes because they sacrificed not to be beside their children when they are sad. 
And most of all they are heroes in its literal meaning because many of them died and have suffered so much. 
My salute to the Filipino overseas workers (OFW).
