Kim, matindi ang pagluluksa

MANILA, Philippines — Nahirapan si Kim Chiu sa pagpo-post ng tribute sa pumanaw na ABS-CBN Executive / talent manager Deo Endrinal.

Literal na ang nasirang manager ang nagbigay ng push kay Kim upang marating at matupad ang mga pangarap pagkalabas niya ng PBB house.

Na inaalala niya sa post kalakip ang message ni Deo na naihatid na sa huling hantungan noong Huwebes ng umaga.

Bukod pa sa kabilang si Kim sa huling nakadalaw pala kay Deo.

Inalala rin ni Kim sa nasabing post na muntik na siyang sumuko sa career at mag-abroad na lang.

“Sir deo

“The master weaver of impossible to possible.”

I don’t know where to start sa dami ng gusto kong sabihin at ipaalam sa lahat on how you played a huge role in my life. I once dreamt of being seen on TV and helping my family. That was my only wish when I started showbiz, but a 16-year-old dreamer would never have what I am experiencing right now if no one believed in me. A teenager with no talent, just hope, and big dreams in my pocket. Right after PBB at the victory party in 2006, he approached me and asked, “Ano kayang mong gawin?. “ Sabi ko “wala po, nahihiya po ako.” Then he told me mag workshop ka lang may project akong bagay sayo. Then he gave me #LoveSpell while doing it. I cried hard because I wanted to go home to Cebu out of frustration. After all, I don’t know how to act, plus my prosthetics pa. He gave me the role of a girl and a boy simultaneously. When he knew about me having a hard time, He went on set and talked to me, closed door, and asked me “why I was doing this. For whom am I doing all this? What do I want and why?” Then I quickly answered, “Gusto ko e ahon ang mga kapatid ko sa hirap, makapagtapos sila ng pag aaral, yung hindi na po kami nanghihingi at nakikitira.” Then he immediately told me,“Yan ang lagi mong iisipin pag napapagod at nahihirapan ka. Wag kang susuko basta basta Kim.” After that, nakatatak na sa utak ko lagi yung sinabi niya.

“For my every win and every loss, Sir Deo has always been there for me. He didn’t leave my side. He is always there, and he is always the first person to believe in me when no one does. He always fights for me; He gave me light and hope whenever I felt down. He always gives me advice and tells me in my face the hurtful truth when no one can even say it. He saw me at my worst; I almost gave up showbiz, packed my bags, and was about to leave the country for good. Yet, he has always been there to help me stand up again. Tumapang ako because of him. Thank you, Sir Deo. I am not where I am now if not because of you. You will always have a special place in my heart. I am forever grateful for all your help, for all your greatness and generosity. You will always be remembered. I love you so much.”

Andun din ang pag-uusap nila nung i-chat siya ni Sir Deo nung may pinagdaraanan siya sa isang tao.

Pinaalala sa kanya na mas marami siyang blessings kaya ‘wag siyang malungkot at ‘wag manghinayang kung meron mang nawala.

Samantala, sa kabila ng pagluluksa, tuloy ang selebrasyon ni Kim ng Chinese New Year.

Gustung-gusto raw niyang ipagdiwang ang Lunar New Year dahil nakapa-festive nito at masaya.

At tulad ng isang karaniwang Chinese, sumusunod sila sa mga tradisyon tulad ng dragon dance, malakas na tambol, firecrackers, tikoy, wishing paper at marami pang iba.

 “May we all have a prosperous, blessed and energetic year of the wooden dragon. Kung hei fat choi everyone!!!!,” banggit ni Kim sa kanyang post para sa Chinese New Year ngayong araw.
