To some, it could have been Eugene Torre. To some, it is Lea Salonga and the whole cast of Miss Saigon. To some it is, and currently, Charice Pempengco. Two generations before, it could have been Gino Padilla and Lilet :) And to others, it might be even be Efren "Bata" Reyes or Brendan "The Truth" Vera or Batista.
To me, it is Manny Pacquiao.
He accelerated, solidified, intensified the sputtering and stammering walk towards being proud to be a Filipino and to wear that pride on my sleeves.
I respect him for his work on the ring and the quality of work he puts in to be on the ring :)
He re-acquianted to me the fruit of hardwork and the gift of having no choice but through :)
"... why think like mere men?"
