Maligayang kaarawan sa pinakamamahal kong ina, ang aming Queen V, Victoria Sanchez. 👑❤️

May, kung may isang tao sa mundong ito na masasabi kong aking kanlungan, tahanan, buhay, at lahat-lahat, ikaw iyon.

Sa bawat hirap na pinagdaanan ko, sa bawat pagkakataong napagod ako at muntik nang sumuko, palagi kong alam na may isang taong maaari kong balikan—ikaw yon, May.

Kapag masaya ka, masaya rin ako. Kapag nasasaktan ka, doble ang sakit na nararamdaman ko. At kung may taong magtaksil, manakit, o sadyang magbigay sa iyo ng sama ng loob, hindi ko kayang manahimik lamang. Ang taong tunay na nagmamahal sa iyo ay mamahalin ko rin, ngunit ang taong mananakit sa iyo ay hindi ko hahayaang yurakan ang puso mo.

Hindi ko kailanman kayang tumbasan ang lahat ng pagmamahal, pag-aaruga, at sakripisyong ibinigay mo para sa ating pamilya. Marami kang isinantabi para lamang maitaguyod kami.

Kaya isa sa pinakamalalim kong panalangin sa Diyos ay sana dumating na ang panahon na permanent na tayong magkasama—araw-araw, hindi na kailangang magkalayo.

Gusto kong dumating ang araw na ako naman ang magsisilbi sa iyo. Ako naman ang mag-aalaga sa iyo, maghahanda ng kailangan mo, sasamahan ka sa bawat araw, at sisiguraduhing komportable at payapa ang buhay mo.

Gusto kong kahit sa simpleng paraan ay maibalik ko sa iyo ang lahat ng sakripisyong ginawa mo para sa atin. Matagal mo kaming inuna, May.

Darating ang panahon na ikaw naman ang uunahin ko.

Pangarap kong gumising araw-araw na alam kong malapit ka lang sa akin. Na hindi na kita kailangang pangungulilaan mula sa malayo.

Na makakasabay kitang kumain, makakausap, mapapatawa, mayayakap, at mapagsisilbihan habang binibigyan pa tayo ng Diyos ng panahon.

May, sana ipagkaloob sa atin ng Diyos ang araw na iyon.

Dahil sa lahat ng tagumpay na maaari kong makamit sa buhay, isa sa pinakamahalaga para sa akin ang makita kang masaya, ligtas, walang iniintinding problema, at namumuhay nang komportable sa piling ko.

Habang may lakas ako, poprotektahan kita.

Habang may kakayahan ako, aalagaan kita. At habang nabubuhay ako, sisikapin kong iparamdam sa iyo na ang lahat ng sakripisyo mo para sa pamilya ay hindi kailanman nakalimutan.

Mahal na mahal kita, Queen V. Higit pa sa kayang sabihin ng mga salita. Hiling ko sa Diyos na bigyan ka pa Niya ng mahabang buhay at mabuting kalusugan, dahil marami pa akong gustong gawin para sa iyo.

Gusto kong dumating ang panahon na ako naman ang magsukli sa lahat ng pagmamahal na buong buhay mong ibinigay sa amin.

Happy Birthday, May. Happy Birthday, Queen V. 👑❤️

Ikaw ang aking kanlungan, aking tahanan, aking buhay. At habang buhay, mananatili kang aking Reyna.

This morning, I woke up with my body aching after being in the thick of preparing my company’s three-year business plan.

I was tired, drained, and feeling every bit of the long hours. Then I opened Messenger and saw a message from Mary Rose Celestino:

“Good morning po, Kuya Manwel 😊 I would like to share this achievement of mine with you po, as you’re part of it po for helping me financially and for being my inspiration. 🥰 Thank you po always and God bless po. 😊”

Suddenly, the exhaustion felt a little lighter. Her message was better than any pain reliever.

There is a different kind of fulfillment in knowing that the fruits of your labor are not measured only by what you accomplish for yourself, but also by the dreams you help others pursue.

Somewhere in my beloved hometown of Pandan, a young woman is working hard toward her dream of becoming a nurse. And somehow, God has allowed me to become a small instrument in that journey.

That is what Balay Victoria has always meant. It is more than a place or a name. It represents the belief that when we are blessed with an opportunity to rise, we can reach back and help someone else rise with us.

Mary Rose, being a Dean’s Lister is your achievement. Your hard work, discipline, sacrifices, and determination brought you here. I may have helped along the way, but you are the one doing the difficult work of turning your dream into reality.
Keep it up, my dear.

Keep studying. Keep dreaming. One day, God willing, Pandan will welcome another nurse—and I will be among those proudly saying, “I knew she could do it.”

Balay Victoria was created for dreamers like you. And every dream fulfilled makes all the hard work worthwhile.

Continue to dream my dear scholars
It’s been a year since these hopefuls underwent an interview to be one of my scholars under the “One Scholar, One Family Dream” through Balay Victoria.

While all of them deserve support, I only chose the best among them. We are now on our second year and my scholars Jennica Eunice T Lopez Mary Rose Celestino Jester Matt Isorena Alejandro David Loucell Santelices delivered more than I expected.

Continue to dream on for your families and for our beloved Pandan.

Thank you to our one and only supporter Let Let Lopez for supporting one of our scholars for one year. While you decided to step aside, your support went a long way to assist my little foundation. Thank you for sharing your blessings.

Balay Victoria will carry one.
