Actress Dimples Romana reminisced about what her life was when she was still a struggling actress, as she celebrates her 24th anniversary in show business.
Romana recalled her pre-teen years when she entered the acting business by posting a throwback photo on her Instagram account yesterday, March 9.
“Ako ito, 12 years old. Puno ng pangarap, [araw-araw] nagdadasal at may pusong handang matuto at makinig,” she said. (This was me, at 12 years old. Filled with dreams, praying every day, with a heart willing to learn and to listen.)
Life then was different for Romana as she did not know anything about acting.
“All I had was willingness and humility to learn and be better, every single day,” she recalled.
“Never took any opportunity given to me for granted, always reminded myself to be good to everyone around me regardless of their position or status. Made the conscious effort to always show my gratitude towards people,” she added.
Romana gave a nod to her “Ates and Kuyas of Star Circle’s Batch 4” while also expressing gratefulness for “a long, steady and stable career” as a “host, entrepreneur, author, brand ambassador and endorser.” For her, it’s now time to give back.
“The things I’ve learned from the masters and all those who came before me, I will share soon,” she said. “Time to share and teach, Dimples.” JB
