On the domestic violence she witnessed in her childhood (this is not an exact transcription of
Charice's reply during her press conference in Singapore today):
Until now it's still hard for me. Every single person wants a happy family, a complete family. I'm happy that I have my mom and my brother but it would really be amazing if I had my dad. It still affects me everytime I remember; when I see something that reminds me about it. Sometimes I miss my dad, sometimes I feel like I don't wanna see him. But I still wanna thank him because I'm here and he's my dad... So I'm still thankful but at the same time I just wish that all the things that happened to me in the past didn't happen.
Everyone suffers hurt in this life, some more than others - like you, Charice. Yet God has blessed you with such a forgiving heart - what can be sweeter and bigger than that? And truly, this is an inspiration for all of us. A line in a film comes to my mind:
Nothing can change the past, but forgiveness can change the future.
"If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained."
