<p>One of the best signs of maturity is when we have finally grown into a more patient person than before, giving us more rational thoughts as well as empathy to guide our choices in life. This remarkable change may actually come off as unexpected, especially proven by these Kapamilya artists who honestly shared the experiences that they are surprisingly patient about.</p><p>New Gen Pop Diva Carmelle Collado began the conversation with a humorous response, expressing that she is actually not patient enough on a lot of things. Toward the end, the rising singer eventually considered that she tends to be patient with herself.</p><div><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAFz8gWM8iRADsJr&amp;cid=AB6phCLshI1V-EXk"></script></div><p>With similar wits, all-rounder Kapamilya artist Alexa Ilacad joked that she would be willing to wait for a thigh part, possibly referring to her food preferences.</p><p>BGYO joined the discussion as well, with Nate Porcalla highlighting his unwavering patience when taking care of his furbaby, Arlo. Meanwhile, Akira Morishita, concentrated on playing golf, confessing that sometimes he feels restless when his strokes do not meet his expectations.</p><p>For BGYO’s JL Toreliza, patience for him is more about taking time to stroll around the mall and carefully pick his wants and needs. In the meantime, their leader, Gelo Rivera, turned his attention to patiently studying acting scripts, especially following his micro drama hit, “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/2026/5/6/abs-cbn-vertical-drama-the-chambermaids-daughter-tops-iwant-charts-hits-5-million-views-on-facebook-0017" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>The Chambermaid’s Daughter,</strong></a>” with Alexa.</p><p>The Asia’s Songbird, Regine Velasquez, described herself as a generally patient individual, though she finds it difficult to take it easy on herself.</p><p>One of the latest recruits for “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/blood-vs-duty" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Blood vs Duty</strong></a>’s” Task Force Alpha, Lou Yanong, proudly spoke about giving herself time for her growth. “I think one of the lessons I learned last year was to really give yourself grace… I’m 29 and I feel like I’m still starting,” she conveyed.</p><p>Lou then took this opportunity to deliver a motivating message for viewers, especially with regard to choosing themselves and having patience on their journey. “I think the beautiful thing about life is it knocks you down many times, and you will always have to get back up because it’s just you who can do it for yourself,” she added.</p><p>As for empathy, Francine Diaz has plenty of it but finds herself afraid of situations when she will suddenly lose patience. “Nakakatakot din minsan… We’ll never know kung kailan ka parang bigla na lang sasabog or kapag may tina-try kang ipaintindi sa ibang tao and they just won’t listen,” she elaborated.</p><p>Both honest and straightforward Kapamilya heartthrobs, Seth Fedelin simply stated that his patience is meant for his dreams, while Joshua Garcia confidently replied that he remains patient with everything in his life, for as long as he can.</p><p>Another “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/blood-vs-duty" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Blood vs Duty</strong></a>” cast member, LA Santos, echoed the response of Joshua, pointing out that he tries his best to understand people. “Lahat naman tayo may kaniya-kaniyang pinagdadaanan,” he further stated.</p><p>Concert King Martin Nievera then spoke about his unconditional love for his son, Santino, who has been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). “If you’re a parent of a special child or a child on the spectrum… You’ll understand what I mean by that kind of patience. It’s God-given,” he answered.</p><p>Kai Montinola defined her profession as something that she would constantly be patient for. In the case of her fellow “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/asap" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>ASAP XP</strong></a>” New Gen Divas, Elha Nympha and Esang de Torres, their pets will always have their soft spots, regardless of the challenging times.</p><p>Asia’s Fearless Diva, Jona Viray, firstly addressed the reality of how today’s situation makes it tough to be patient before talking about how she wholeheartedly appreciates the slow and steady growth of her plants.</p><p>Like any other accomplished individual, Jameson Blake, is fond of the process of waiting. “I don’t like to rush things. I like to take my time,” he shared.</p><p>Powerhouse singing duo Marielle Montellano and JM Dela Cerna have different levels of patience, with Marielle emphasizing her endurance to wait without doing anything and JM when it comes to playing Mobile Legends.</p><p>Jason Dy, the Prince of Soul, is unquestionably relatable with his views, making it clear that it’s acceptable for him to keep up with a series with just one episode per week.</p><p>Have you built up enough patience like them?
