We Filipinos tend to get a hold or a grip from someone whom we consider as special. This habit is mainly because of the crises happening within us and those which are happening around us. These things will torment your physical and mental being. That is when your special someone comes to give you relief from the excruciating pain of despair.

As I was watching TV, someone caught my immediate attention. He was a young singer named, Ronald Jaimeer. He who was dubbed as Mr. Heartsong , name which was given to him because of his splendid renditions of classical songs such as Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler and a gloomy ballad entitled No Way to Treat a Heart, eventually won ABS-CBN's talent search: Little Big Superstar.

The boy's voice was really enchanting that it enticed hundreds or even thousands of fans all over the world. His wonderful voice brings peace of mind to everyone. When I seek for inner peace and tranquility, I often listen to his song numbers. I find his voice soothing and relaxing, which I think is best for those who are under the influence of stress. He even served as one of my guardian angel, which helped me choose the right path destined for me. I see him as someone being unscathed of all the bitterness in life. Although all of us have an idea of what his life was before winning Little Big Superstar, I do believe that he is equipped with a kind heart backed up with great strength and fortitude. What a splendid creation, God had created in the person of my idol, Ronald Jaimeer C. Humarang.

Still, people have their own freedom in choosing their idols and inspirations. Apparently, most of us don’t know the true concept of idolatry, that’s why they live a wrecked life. Even though I do not completely understand its true meaning, I would still live to my beliefs and perceptions for it is I who shall be the one responsible to whatever outcome that maybe brought out by my decisions in this harsh life.
