A FIRM Heart Evangelista revealed that trusting too much, especially when it comes to the “most angel-like person” she meets, is what she considers her greatest mistake.
Sitting down with her husband, Sen. Francis “Chiz” Escudero,” in a “Fast Talk With Boy Abunda” interview on Friday, March 15, Evangelista admitted that being too trusting of others is her “greatest mistake” when asked by entertainment columnist Boy Abunda.
“To trust others too much,” she said in response. “You cannot trust the most angel-like person that comes, you do not drink the first glass of water someone gives you just because you trust them.”
Evangelista stressed that one shouldn’t reveal their “plans and the map to [their] success” since there’s a chance that people “will take advantage of your innocence and sincerity.”
“You cannot reveal your dreams and aspirations. You cannot reveal your plans and you cannot give them the map to your success because people will take advantage of your innocence, sincerity, and heart,” she said matter-of-factly.
“The only people you can really trust are your family, that’s it. Others will not look at you [the same] way. You only show the blueprint of your life to those you trust,” she further added.
Without mentioning any incident in particular, the fashion personality then pointed out that a “blueprint” of someone’s life “will continuously change as [they] grow,” which would lead to the other party “losing their way.”
“But the best news is: because it’s authentically you, this blueprint or map will continuously change as you grow. So somewhere along the way, whoever took this map will lose their way so wala na ‘ko dun,” she said. (Hannah Mallorca © Philippine Daily Inquirer)
