ALDUB NATION: Instead of HATING the Haters, I'd rather love my love even more.

Instead of going through the whole process of virtual fights, kahit na nasasaktan din ako kapag napakatalim na ng mga binibitawan nilang mga salita tungkol kay Maine at Alden, though I know it would be tasteful to comment back and slap them also through the harsh words, I chose to stay still and remember how to act rightfully. I admit, I raged in anger for a moment, inhaled all the positivity and exhaled out all the negativity. I just smile and remember how Aldub started , kung ano ang aral na itinuturo ni Lola Nidora everyday, and what ways I could put everything in application sa aking daily life. I contemplate on things and always chose the reason why I stayed as a fan. And that is to see them as an inspiration. Not a distraction, nor a catalyst of self destruction but a symbol of self improvement. So para mapigilan ko ang sarili ko, iniisip ko nalang, "ay bata pa ito, isip bata, huwag patulan". Idinadagdag ko rin ang thoughts kung bakit ako naging isang fan for the first time, dahil deserving si Maine sa mga admiration na she receives today. She tries to keep all her beauty inside, conceal some of her talents and is a half mystery but overflowing ang ganda niya that the public couldn't help but notice it. She has so many reservations that the ALDUB nation is very eager to unveil. Alden is Alden but he is more. Aside from the looks, he does not limit himself from being labeled as the handsome showbiz personality only. He is a substance of the long fictional character of Pilipinong Binata, what we only hear on folk stories before , what we only fantasize from our grandmothers' love tales. He is now real. He is now in a form of Alden. Maybe that were the things na hindi pa nila nakita kaya ang confident nilang magsalita against them is not within the moral line. But blessed tayong ALDUB NATION to bear open eyes para maging clear ang kagandahang ito. Ang swerte natin. At kahit they keep on labelling us as "cheap" , "exaggerated" , "mapagmataas" , feel happy kasi you acquired the wisdom to know na we are nothing like it at feel sorry for those na pinipilit tayong idrag down, kasi they lost the opportunity to be part of "us". Ang tayo na malawak ang isip, exquisite ang sense of choice at ang tayo na mahilig lang maging masaya. Ang TAYO na gustong maging positive araw araw katulad ni Maine and at ang TAYO na gustong maging romantic katulad ni Alden.
