Big as the World is, Home is Where We Go Back (《世界再大，也要回家》) is a group of hand-drawn comics by a college student. It shows us parents’ deep love when their daughter is at home and away.
When you were away from home, your parents would eat simple and vegetarian, three meals a day…and every day when you were at home, they would prepare a whole table of food for you.
When you were away from home, your parents would mention you to others from time to time…and when you were at home, they would complain about you a lot.
When you were away from home, you were the competent and independent self…while you were at home, you would be a little girl who always needed to be taken care of.
But one day, you happen to find it hard for your parents to do things they used to be able to. Their memory and their hearing are getting worse and worse. You are going faster and faster without knowing that they are walking slower and slower-they are growing old. When you finally understand it is time to repay your parents, could there be enough time left? So, go home before it is too late! Show your love by spending more time with your parents.
