It takes an enormous amount of courage and ability to overcome such things as cerebral palsy, much more if you have to pay the rent, utilities, buy food and clothing and feed your family. People in such physical state go thru pain, rejection and sufferings in their everyday life. But for Ron Sapinoso, it is not about the disability, it is about the power of positive thinking, strong will and determination to succeed. Thru his 3D animation, he is knocking on everyone’s hearts to open their minds and become human.

this took awhile to load but i think my computer was the problem. i have to say though that it was worth the wait because this story is so inspiring. i hope that this artist will live to see the fulfillment of his dreams.
it’s really touching and inspirational. it’s a shame Ron is probably smarter than most people but because of his situation, he is discriminated and in turn loses some good opportunities that should be available for everyone in the society. maraming bagay na maituturo si Ron para sa lahat. - and pagiging malakas ang loob, pagiging positive despite all adversaries. hat off to you Ron!
isang milyong maraming salamat sa inyo, lalo na kay Butikilyo. thanks for sharing my story. buong buhay ko struggle na sa akin ang tanggapin ng ibang tao bilang tao. ngunit sa nakikita ko ngayong suporta sa inyo… napapangiti na ko ng todo… salamat uli…mabuhay tayong lahat!
Ron - maraming salamat din sa yo at sa inquirer.net for sharing your story. when we saw your video, we really got interested and thought that your story may be an eye opener sa mga pinoy to look at one’s abilities and not the disabilities. at saka na rin sa mga pinoy na kung minsan nanghihina ang loob - to look at the bright side of things - ang maging positive thinker. we, your friends at butikilyo.com wish you the best in your endeavors.
kua ron galingan mo lang sana naniniwala ako sa kakayanan mo, alam mo ba na pili lang ang may kapasidad na gumawa ng mga ginigawa. Isipin mo lagi na itinalaga tayo ng panginoon sa bawat yugto ng buhay dahil may purpose ang Panginoon para sa atin. Sana makita sa atin ang pagpapala ng Panginoong Jesukristo. God bless sau, sana MATUPAD ANG MGA PANGARAP MO!
