my pamily..=p
I was once a lover and a fan of the art of modelling whether it is for ramp or commercial purposes. When I was a child I envisioned myself walking in a runway oozing with confidence and attitude. I saw myself on the screen modelling my favourite brand of clothes or my favourite food. I pictured myself so glamorous on the center of a studio with lights and cameras focused and around me. Now, I gave up that dream for I know that doesn’t going to happen anymore for some reasons I know but I don’t want to take time on wishing and hoping there ain’t any. Still, I continue loving the art of runway by admiring those models, watching and reading magazines but now excluding the fact that it would someday be me.
Recently, the new Bb. Pilipinas reigned. I wasn’t able to watch the pageant for I was busy studying for our dreaded REVALIDA. Nevertheless, I was able to watch a part of it via the YouTube. I was able to watch the last question and answer portion and saw and clearly heard the question and how it was answered by the reigning Bb. Pilipinas who would be our representative for Ms. World. Anyway, I won’t comment on the way she answered rather I would want to answer the question thrown to her.
Since I was not given the gift to join this contest, I might as well grab my blog as my chance to answer her question. The question is “What role did your family play to you as candidate to Bb. Pilipinas?” I could simply answer the question in one sentence but for the sake of my post. I would lengthen it.
My Family is the greatest gift I ever received from God. Without them, I wouldn’t be here on earth and more so in front of you. I can’t find the perfect words to describe my family for they give me something beyond words. They serve as my support system, motivation and inspiration. They are the people who keep on pushing me to reach my dreams no matter how hard it takes. They are my sweetest down fall as one song would say. They are the best persons in my life. They are the reason beyond every success I am receiving and with those successes, I offer it to them. They are the most important persons in my life (to quote the reigning Bb. Pilipinas) I can live without my friends and every single thing in this world as long as they are beside me. The give me the air that I breathe not literally but they are the main reason why I am living my life the way it should be and the way they will be happy about. My family is my all-in-one person. I love them so much that I would do every little thing for them. They comprise almost all of me. From them, I learned and gained so much. Those lessons particularly the values inculcated to me made me lovable to my friends and other people related to me. To wrap it up, my family is one thing that will make me worthy of winning this pageant. They are the key to my success and I thank GOD for that.
Everything I have now…
Whoever I am now…
I owe it to my family…
I owe it to GOD… [I give you my overflowing gratitude...]
I don’t know if I would be able to think and say those things when I am in her shoes to add the pressure and every inch of judgement of those people watching. If ever I would be in that same spot as her, I would answer a very simple sentence as “My family is my motivation in joining this pageant…” just as simple as that. No need of sh*t alibis, no need of thinking twice.
Disclaimer: I am not a Bb. Pilipinas wanna be. I would just like to give justice to my family if ever I would be asked the same question. Peace.
