(VIDEO WITH SUBTITLES ADDED) Charice and MomRaq were featured on Rated K, Philippines. Basically a review of her amateur years and guestings abroad. I was told that itA?s a motherA?s tribute. The sad part was when Charice recalls she used to see things she wanted to buy in the stores, but they didnA?t have money. So MomRaq told her to wait until she won the contest because it brings bad luck to buy before.

Raquel also reminds me of the sacrifices my mom went through to provide for us in our early and very vulnerable years. Like Raquel, what my mom prayed for that seemingly was not answered for her own self, was answered in us, her children, and that is not lost on me either.
While Charice is a statement of what can happen when you dare to live your dream, Raquel is a stand-in for all the unsung mothers (and fathers, and other people) out there who are leading heroic lives on a daily basis, making personal sacrifices to provide for their children and other loved ones. I hope they too will gain inspiration and strength from Raquel’s example.

Roughly translated in english …. An apple tree will bear apples, not another fruit. Meaning, Charice’s talents and inner qualities were inherited from her mother.
Mommy Raqz is such a role model for all mothers. I have so much admiration and respect for her. Her sacrifices and good efforts bore fruits. She deserves all these blessings and wish her many more blessings to come.
