00:00When Mylene was young, her dream was to become a teacher.
00:07My dream when I was young was to become a teacher.
00:12But I couldn't continue because my parents didn't allow me to continue my studies.
00:24But because of her needs, her dream came to fruition.
00:29After high school, she had to stop until she was able to continue her studies.
00:38I am sad that I wasn't able to continue my studies when I was young.
00:43But I told myself that if I was given a chance to continue my studies, I will continue my studies.
00:54The education that she didn't get before was what she will give to her daughter now.
01:02Mylene promised to educate her daughter to the best of her abilities.
01:07And now, her daughter Ken is already in Grade 5.
01:11She is active in school and in sports like arnis.
01:15When Mylene was young, her dream was to become a soldier.
01:28My dream is to become a soldier so that I can protect my country and help it.
01:36But even though she was able to continue her studies, her family still couldn't afford to support her.
01:43I woke up early to help my new parents before I went to school.
01:51I felt like I entered a world without boundaries.
01:57Because of her difficult life, Ken sometimes enters a world with no boundaries,
02:01and the only things he has is rice and salt.
02:04It's sad. Even if the only thing I have is water and salt,
02:08and sometimes I don't have any boundaries,
02:11but it's okay for me because we are happy.
02:16Just like his mother, Ken was born early.
02:21After school, he goes straight to school, not to the park or playground, but to the farm.
02:29He studies in the morning and goes to the farm in the afternoon.
02:32No matter how hard it is, Ken doesn't care.
02:35He just wants to go to school.
02:39He studies in the morning and goes to the farm in the afternoon.
02:43No matter how hard it is, Ken doesn't care.
02:46He just wants to go to school.
03:02He doesn't want to be late for school.
03:04He always wants to go to school early.
03:07When he gets to school, he says that they are still picking up trash in their playground.
03:14But when he doesn't have classes, he stays with his father in the farm.
03:20He helps him with whatever he can do.
03:26Ken will never stop studying and reaching his dreams,
03:30especially now that he is not only dreaming of getting a diploma,
03:34but also his mother, Maileen, who is now helping him with his studies.
03:42Maileen serves as an inspiration for Ken's son to improve his studies.
03:50I promise that I will improve my studies so that my dreams will come true.
03:57Even though he was born in a poor family, his parents supported him in his studies and in his dreams.
04:04I am a child farmer who is ready to help my family.
04:09I can endure the hardships so that my dreams will come true.
04:14Thank you, Papa. Thank you, Mama. Thank you, Ate, for your love and support.
04:26Thank you, Mama. Thank you, Ate.
