KAHIT isa nang ina, hindi ito hadlang para sa aktres na si Jessy Mendiola upang tuparin ang dati pa niyang pinapangarap –ang maging isang “ballerina.”
Sa Instagram, proud na ibinandera ni Jessy ang kanyang mirror selfie na makikitang nakasuot siya ng ballet training outfit.
“I’ve decided to chase an old dream of mine,” bungad sa kanyang caption.
Naikwento rin niya na bata pa lang siya ay gusto na niyang mag-ballet, pero hindi pa kasi nila ito afford dati.
“I remember watching other kids in their ballet outfits during a class at a dance studio in a mall in Makati. I kept telling myself ‘one day, magagawa rin kita’ [white heart emoji],” wika ng celebrity mom.
Baka Bet Mo: Jessy nakiusap sa haters: Sana ‘wag nating i-crucify ang isang tao dahil lang mali yung sinabi niya
Patuloy niya, “Now, I keep telling myself that it’s never too late (or I’m never too old) to start something I’ve always wanted to do since I was a kid.
“Here’s to trying new things no matter how old (or late) you are, the most important thing is that you are happy and you are still willing to learn after all these years.”
Aniya pa ni Jessy, “As a ballerina momma tayo ngayon, I can’t wait to dance with my little Rosie.”
Sa comment section, maraming mommies ang naka-relate kay Jessy, habang ang ilan ay napahanga sa determinasyon niya.
Narito ang ilan sa mga nabasa namin:
“I started at 39. Still at it after 14 years. Keep chasing that dream because it is never ever too late po.”
“OMG! Same tayo, I was sooo happy seeing a ballerina dance kaya nga lang di rin afford ng parentals so sabi ko I will be a ballerina one day. Hehehe until now still dreaming to be one, so happy you got your chance.”
“Same feeling. Can relate. Kaya siguro I’m so happy nakapag ballet ngayon ang daughter ko.”
“This [red heart emoji] we are never too old. We can chase our dream”
