LESSONS FROM GABY DELA MERCED

LESSONS FROM GABY
By: Anonymous

We love watching gaby all the time because you know that what you are seeing is not a show but a natural, real person… yes, the reactions and behavior are real and sincere! That’s why when she smiles or laughs, you feel happy; when she cries, you could feel the hurt, the angst, the anger, the confusion she feels; when she’s pissed off, you know what’s the real issue and the real score; when she says it’s okay, I understand, I forgive you or I’m sorry, you know that she means it. When she tries to fulfill her task, you know that she does it with her heart. When she leads, you follow; because you know that she will only mean well. When she feels like quitting you want to tell her “you can do it gaby”, just the way she would support her housemates. When she is tempted to disobey or speak her mind, or be firm with her convictions, you feel anxious that she might be suffering certain consequences. When she succeeds in anything, you feel vindicated and triumphant. When she offers to sacrifice herself for the sake of anybody, or accepts punishments for her own actions, you know it is whole heatedly felt, and you feel she’s like 10 feet tall.

She is a normal adult who treats everybody with equal respect, kindness and understanding; a mature woman who can delay her own gratification for the sake of others, be it human or animals.

Together with her, we also learned from all the things she said and did, we learned from all her strengths and weaknesses, her success through sheer determination, and from her mistakes. IT'S AMAZING HOW SOMEONE CAN TOUCH OR EVEN CHANGE OTHERS' LIVES JUST BY BEING HERSELF.

Thus, it does not matter if she is 2x or 10x richer than most of us. It’s okay if we make little or big sacrifices to be able to make our votes and opinions known. She made a stand for what she believed in; she made a stand for the creatures (housemates and piglets)because of her values and because she loved them. Now is the time for us to give what is due to her. Let us all make a stand and give our best votes for gaby! And most of all, let us pray for her to win! She is the real big winner!

Yes.Gaby is indeed the most appealing among other housemates. In terms of what she believes in, she stand to it no matter what. She may not be hailed as the big winner, well for most of us, she is still the woman of beauty and power. mabuhay ka Gaby dela Merced!!

gaby's final sacrifice?

im not usually the paranoid type of a person, but... why do i get this nagging suspicion that gaby's being a third place winner was a sacrifice done for somebody? anyhow... i dont think people will get what i mean unless they are updated with the latest news...

well okay, sorry tao lang po... forget it. i'm sure gaby, being gaby, will readily sacrifice herself for anyone and for any cause. and im sure she would want her friends and supporters to accept this outcome as graciously as she did... athlete yan eh.. she knows that for every game there are winners and losers, and not all games are fair, that it doesn't mean that if you lose you are bad, that even if you lose a game you can still win the tournament, etc. etc...

Shalom then, gaby, God bless you; may He take care of you and keep you safe and bless you and your family always; may you fulfill your dreams,make the right choices, love and trust the right people, obtain contentment, good health and peace!.

Whatever the results are, nothing's changed. I still admire this girl for many reasons since her Livin'it up days. I hope she will get a BIG break after her PBB stint. Good luck, gaby! We're here to support you no matter what. :)

i would like to congratulate gaby dela merced (3rd placer). but for us,the gabsters, she really deserves to be the big winner. i don't know if you will agree with me guys, she is the epitome of the true millenium filipina woman.

i am just sad though, one of her considered close friends in the house, yayo aguila, still making "kaplastikan (or orocan, a tougher brand)" to her even outside kuya's house. as i remembered, yayo was overwhelmed, with joy and excitement when gaby rejoined with them but when kuya asked yayo her opinion, she don't like gaby to return in the house. according to her, it was unfair. well, what an irony, the girl she despise at first, was her saviour! salamat na lang and people really love gaby. thank god! people choose gaby to stay! and still, she still hugging gaby in front of people but behind her mind,"dapat ako kasama sa big 4, instead of you". ewan ko. it's just my opinion.
in my opinion, gaby must not share her win to the orocan mom. besides, yayo will be a lot richer than gaby when it comes to auditing, remember, she has 2 weeks deduction for staying outside the house; not to mention the rp witholding taxes.
anyway, my family, friend and i were happy for gaby. pbb opened a vast horizon for gaby's dream.

CONGRATULATIONS, GABY DELA MERCED, A TRUE WINNER AT HEART!!!!!!!!!!!
