Jose Rizal once said, "Ang hindi marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan ay hindi makakarating sa paroroonan."

Boxing champ Manny Pacquiao stays true to the saying and looks back on his beginnings before he became a celebrity athlete.



In his Instagram, he posted a photo showing how he loves living the simple life, despite being the world’s second highest-paid celebrity according to Forbes.

The photo shows him eating in a small room in which he wrote, “Kain lang pag may time. Hehe”


The “Pambansang Kamo” also posted a throwback picture of him and placed a bible verse on the caption, “Galatians 5:13-14 NIV [13] You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. [14] For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

Manny then described the picture and said, “This picture was taken when I was 10 years old. Thank you God for everything you have done in my life, beyond of my imagination. The blessings, you gave it to me. Thank you, Lord.”
