Being away from my family is hard. The amount of money I would need just to visit them is ginormous, so I would miss a lot of celebrations and holidays that most families celebrate together. A couple of weeks from now, my father would celebrate his 58th birthday and I would want nothing more than to be there with him but I can't. It's not just because of money issues, but because of other issues as well.
Thanks to the Internet though, I wont feel too sad to be far away on his special day. My dad recently purchased two refurbished computers so that we could communicate constantly even if we're far apart. Last night alone, I talked with them until midnight. I get to see them on a regular basis through the Internet chats and even get to participate on whatever parties they celebrate at home by just a click of a button.
Hopefully someday, the technology would make it possible for me to hug them and kiss them online. The real hug and kiss. For now, I am just so glad that I get to see them and keep in touch with them despite the distance.

fantastic !!!
I am so thankful of the internet too. It is our cheapest and convenient way to communicate my family back home.It saves a lot of money than talking to them in the telephone.
Thanks for the visit.
