But one thing that I learnt over the course of this journey is that we can tap into our inner strength to grow and bloom where life plants us. It is up to YOU, and YOU are worth it!” she added.She then expressed her gratitude to those who have helped her in her journey, from her team to her loved ones and loyal supporters.“I will have to make a separate post to thank the sea of people who lifted me up in this journey, but I really just wanted to share these thoughts and this victory with all of you. I feel so blessed and filled with gratitude,” she said.“Thank you for every single vote, view, like, comment and prayer that you sent up for the Philippines in this journey. We even won the Suprachat challenge!! YOU made that possible. I cannot thank you all enough,&quot; she added.Ending her post, Pauline said that she is “immensely proud” of her victory and is grateful for the support of her fellow Filipinos.“Daghang Salamat, Philippines,” she said.
