00:00Graduates take their own paths in their creative shots.

00:04But this one takes a different path.

00:07Is that so?

00:12As November approaches,

00:14conversations are becoming more and more important.

00:27But this is the heart we know.

00:31Aren't you nervous about those things?

00:36Because Halloween is still a theme for graduation?

00:47In this viral graduation pictorial,

00:50it's not the family,

00:52friends,

00:54or medals that are important.

00:57It's the student.

00:59Literally, the creative shot is deadly

01:02because of what he did,

01:04and all of it.

01:09In Balete Aklan, we met Mike Navarrete,

01:12a nursing graduate and the son of the owner of a funeral home.

01:16What I really want is to thank my parents

01:19for the effort they put in for me.

01:21That's what I really thought,

01:23to show them where we came from.

01:26According to Mike,

01:28graduating from college wasn't easy

01:30because of the hardship of life.

01:33But his parents did their best

01:35to support his education.

01:38They really wanted to graduate,

01:40but they couldn't do it on their own,

01:43so they did it with us.

01:45There was a time when my two siblings were stopped from going to school

01:49so that one could finish school.

01:52In the past, there were deaths every day.

01:54Their salary was only per head.

01:57Unexpectedly,

01:59Mike's father suddenly fell ill.

02:02At work hours,

02:04he was attacked by a stroke.

02:07He cried every night.

02:09His mother couldn't walk either.

02:13When I checked his mother's wallet,

02:15it was empty.

02:16Because their salary wasn't enough.

02:23This was followed by the storm Yolanda,

02:26which caused heavy flooding in various places.

02:32The storm Yolanda was hard for us to endure

02:36because our house was also damaged.

02:39So we decided to start a business.

02:43But the storm was like a blessing.

02:47We received a partial 10K.

02:50That's what my mother and father did

02:53so that we could start our own business.

02:56The parents had been working for 14 years

02:59since the death of their son.

03:04So it was time for them to build their own poneraria

03:08right above their house.

03:11We didn't have a car,

03:13just a motorcycle.

03:14The children we brought were still small.

03:17So we had to carry them around

03:20to the service station

03:22to ask for help.

03:24But despite their hard work,

03:26they still couldn't avoid being attacked by other people.

03:30Why is this our business?

03:33If there's a birthday party,

03:36we invite them,

03:38but they don't go

03:39because they say that our food

03:41comes from the insides of people.

03:44Mike didn't pay attention to the children.

03:47What's important is that his family is working hard.

03:51I just want to let other people know

03:53that because of those people,

03:55that became a way for us to finish our studies at the same time.

03:59I'm proud of our family business

04:02because that's where we lived.

04:04For others,

04:05afraid of death,

04:06this is where Mike goes every day to live.

04:10It's just an ordinary day.

04:12We just go inside the house

04:14and there's someone lying there.

04:15It's like someone else is sleeping in the house.

04:18My nieces and nephews,

04:19they're not afraid anymore

04:21because they go up to the roof

04:23to see who's inside the house.

04:25The good news of the story of Mike's family

04:28When we know that they have a problem with money matters,

04:33that's when we adjust our price.

04:35Who would have thought

04:37that their family would have a funeral?

04:41Papa and Mama have already funded

04:43two vehicles for our business.

04:46Then for the furniture,

04:48and of course,

04:49the three of us siblings finished our studies.

04:52I'm thankful because that's what Mama and Papa did.

04:56For now,

04:57Mike is busy reviewing.

04:59His lifelong dream

05:02is to help parents

05:04when he becomes a licensed embalmer.

05:07Good luck!

05:08If you have one,

05:09give back to your parents.

05:12They say

05:13we can't bring wealth to the table.

05:16But success

05:18and a kind heart

05:20for a lifetime

05:21is what people remember.
