For my parents now, they realize that the definition ng happiness nila is to have a roof over your head... to be able to support your family, if you have a family-your set. My generation, 'yung definition nila is to be able to be independent, express yourself, have a personality, because they don’t need to worry about that, because their parents already did the hard yards for them.James Roque on how his parents embraced his career as a comedian
They gave me the privilege to be able to choose kung anong career ang gusto ko and I think by not exercising that privilege, that is actually what’s throwing it away. By not exercising and expressing who I really am, that’s the true waste. That’s why everything I do, whether social media or stand up, I gotta give this a 100%. My parents gave so much when I was a kid, I gotta make it worth it.James Roque on paying tribute to his parents
