Another year of life has flown by. During this last year, there were things in my life that I’d never dreamed of accomplishing. From being a college graduate to now being able to continue working full-time toward a dream I always had as a child—but never really had the opportunity to pursue until a couple of years ago—is something I would’ve never expected,” he began.  </p><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DVDEowjEQlU/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=607&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A19779522.60000001%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="1262" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><p>As he welcomed a new year with Maymay by his side, Joaquin said that meeting her stood out above everything else he experienced. </p><p>“But the greatest blessing this past year came from the absolute most unexpected place, which was meeting my person. I guess this truly goes to show that if you continue to put your heart, belief, soul, love, faith, and passion into the things you love, there’s absolutely nothing this world and God can’t offer you. What’s meant for you will come.” </p><p>He ended his message with optimism and gratitude, giving fans a glimpse of how he spent his birthday and Valentine’s Day.
