Maine’s “barbie world”

Sanden J. Anadia - Banat

CEBU, Philippines - Gibutyag ni Maine Mendoza nga dili na kinahanglan nga usbon ang iyang pagkatawo aron lang gyud malingaw ang publiko.

Ang tawong tinud-anay nga nagmahal kaniya mao kadto ang midawat sa tanan kun unsa siya nga pagkatawo.

Mao kini ang unod sa mensahe sa gisulat ni Maine sa iyang blog nga mainemendoza.com nga duna’y titulo nga ‘That’s how it works.’

Sa pagsugod niya sa showbiz usa ka tuig na ang milabay, daghan matud pa siya og nakat-onan   sa industriya

Tsika pa ni Maine nga duna’y higayon nga duna siya’y mga tawo nga kinahanglan niya nga  “i-please.”

Duna siya’y higala  nga nisulti kaniya nga mao gyud kini ang pamaagi sa industriya , apan wala siya makauyon niini.

 “If there is one thing in this world that I would never do, that would be it – pleasing people,” matud pa niya.

Dugang pa ni Maine nga daghan kaayo ang nagpakaron-ingnon sa showbiz.

 “We are in a world full of pretentious beings. Especially in my case, I am living in a world full of barbies – and no, it ain’t fantastic. Some people have really mastered the art of pretension.

Why bother trying to be someone you are not when you can just be yourself? Why seek for people’s approval on how to live your life? Why let other people’s opinions define you?

Is that how it should work?”, matud pa ni Maine.

Matud pa niya nga daghan ang nagdiktar sa iyang buhaton aron  matud pa maganahan kaniya ang  ubang mga tawo

 “But I kept on telling them NO– I don’t think I need to be all these ‘this’ to be liked by people. I do not need and want to pretend to be someone I am not and do something I am not willing to do just to be loved and ‘accepted’  by the people in this ‘barbie world,”  nagkanayon si Maine.

Dili gyud ganahan mag-usab si Maine sa iyang pagkatawo aron lang gyud mosakay sa naandan na nga pamaagi sa showbiz.

“I would never change who I am just to conform to the norms of this industry. If there is one thing people should always remember, that’d be this: We are not born to please everybody,” suma pa niya.

Dili gyud malikayan nga duna’y mosaway kaniya   apan wala na siya’y mabuhat niini.

“There will always be people who will dislike you and will try to bring you down; and no matter how good of a person you are, they will always have something bad to say about you– and that’s alright, c‘est la vie,” matud pa ni Maine.
