EVEN THE QUEENS DOUBLED THE EFFORT

      Our Filipina Beauty Queens namely Pia Wurtzbach and Mary Jean Lastimosa were the perfect examples of "perseverance" & "try and try until you succeed attitude"

      These beauty queens didn't just woke up with the crown on their head. As persevering as other people, both of them worked hard to get it, not once, not twice but thrice.

        Pia Wurtzbach finally won the Binibining Pilipinas 2015 as Miss Universe Philippines 2015 on her third attempt. And just "wow" she is definitely a living example of not letting anything or anyone stop you from reaching your dreams/goal. 

        She started competing at Binibing Pilipinas since 2013 wherein she became the 1st runner up. And she again competed the following year which is 2014 but unable to make it to the finals.

         Same with Pia Wurtzbach, MJ had the crown on her third attempt. She started competing in Binibining Pilipinas since 2011 wherein she placed 2nd runner up and the following year which is 2012, she again attempted to own the crown, however she wasn't able to make it up to the finals. Last 2014, she was able to be crowned as the Binibining Pilipinas 2014 and competed for Miss Universe title. 

           Who would have thought that they are not only beauty and brains but they are packed with so much fighting spirit and the never give up attitude. 

           With their story reaching their dream and reaching for the crown, I have come to realize that all sorts of people should strive harder, be more persevering, double the effort and want it enough in order to have what they are aspiring for, because not all things could be achieve overnight. Everything worth having deserves a lot of trials and efforts and at some point, heartbreaks, I guess. 

           Its just that, something worth having that is definitely made in heaven won't be given to you without you, as a person exerting and giving too much in order to have it. 

        Giving up is very tempting and common and these beauty queens have shown us how temporary a failure is. And these failures were opportunities to begin again and reach for what you are aspiring. You just got to pick yourself up, take a deep breath, move forward and try again. And at this point, our beauty queen really did not experience failure but a step by step process into winning the crown. Because for me, failure happens when you stop trying. In this matter, winners are those who unfortunately did not win the battle but  courageous enough to stand up and give it another shot.

          The harder the struggle, the more glorious the triumph, and that's how their story goes.
