It wasn’t just happiness flowing from his tears. They carried so much more—the weight of battles fought in silence, the pain of being misunderstood, the sting of cruel words, and the doubt that crept in every time the world tried to make him feel less. Yet within those same tears was also the relief of finally being seen, valued, and loved for the person he truly is. It was a release of everything he once kept inside, finally finding its way out in front of people who embrace him fully. Dus, you deserve this moment more than anyone. Not only for the courage it took to fight through it all, but for the kindness and goodness that have always lived in your heart. You’ve inspired so many just by being yourself, and the love you’re receiving now—it’s the very love you’ve been giving all along, often without even realizing it. <3 Dustin Yu

The universe knows it all. It sees the work, the sacrifice, and the heart. And it never misses rewarding those who truly deserve it. MMFF Award for Dustin🌟

I used to be so afraid that once they stepped out of the pbb house, everything would change. Afraid that Riv would slowly distance himself from Dus because of the hate, just like what others did. Afraid that the friendship they built,would slowly fade away under the weight of judgment and negativity. But seeing them now, my heart is finally at ease. Nothing changed. The friendship is still there, the same care, the same warmth, the same love. Thank you, Rivriv, for loving our Dustin unconditionally. For choosing to stand by him when the world tried to tear him down. For being a safe place, a constant, a reminder that true friendship doesn’t waver under pressure.

Not everyone understands how beautiful it is to witness someone survive the very version of life that almost destroyed them. Happy Birthday Dus! 🤍 I hope this year gives back all the love, peace, and kindness life once failed to give you. Thank you for surviving long enough for us to witness the person you are slowly becoming now. Please know that even if time changes things and life eventually leads us down different paths, I’ll always be here quietly supporting you from the sidelines. I’ll defend you in the ways I can, celebrate your wins like they’re my own, and continue believing in you even from afar. I’m proud of you for making it this far. You’ve always been worthy of all the good things you’re receiving right now, and all the beautiful things still meant for you. Ily my babybooboo. Forever Dustin Charles Yu truther, Rai :)

I saw a video on the tktk about a wife whose husband was diagnosed with sleep apnea. She said loving someone with this condition is a different kind of love, one filled with pain and fear. Every night, her husband stops breathing. And that’s what scares her the most. For most of us, sleep means rest. But for her, sleep is terrifying. What if she falls asleep What if her husband stops breathing? Who will wake him up? And suddenly, I remembered Dustin. He has the same condition. He was diagnosed with sleep apnea too. Years ago, he decided to undergo surgery. And it hurts knowing how some people turned it into a joke, mocked him, made fun of the decision, as if it was something shallow or unnecessary. But they didn’t understand. He did it for himself. To lessen the fear that comes every time he closes his eyes. To have hope that he’ll wake up tomorrow. He didn’t do it for enhancement. He did it for survival. We don’t know someone else’s struggle. We don’t see the battles they fight in silence. What feels simple to us can be unbearably hard for them. So please, be kind. 💌

I hope that when you say, bukas na muna, bukas ulit, it’s because your heart is ready for tomorrow, not because today broke you. I hope it’s a quiet hope, not a way to escape the heaviness you’ve carried. I hope you wake up looking forward to moments that make your eyes light up, not under the weight of a world that’s been too unkind. And I hope that when you finally whisper, bukas, it’s because your soul wants it, not because it has to.

With all the noise around you… all the judgment, all the attempts to tear you down or make you doubt yourself, I just hope you choose to look at the ones who believed in you from the very start. Look at the people who never left. The ones who rooted for you even on the days when everything felt heavy. The ones who trusted you, your heart, your talent. I hope you look at us. Because right now, I can say this with a full heart: ang dami-dami naming naniniwala at nagmamahal sa’yo. And no amount of noise, hate, or judgment will ever be louder than that.

We may be few, but our love for you has always been bigger than words could hold. Even when you never asked, we stayed. We stood by you in silence, and when silence wasn’t enough, we spoke up, especially in the moments when you were treated unfairly. We tried to understand you the best we could, patiently, even when it broke our hearts a little each time. And not once did we regret loving you, or choosing to support you. Right now, we are giving everything we have left, so that when the day comes that we can no longer remain in all this noise and chaos, we can leave knowing we gave our all, with no regrets. :)

Sometimes I forget you’re only 24. You carry yourself with such strength that it’s easy to overlook how young you still are—still learning, still figuring things out, still finding your way. And yet, at this age, you’re already carrying dreams so much bigger than yourself. Dreams not just for you, but for the people you love and those who believe in you. I just hope this world is kind to you. Kinder than it has been. Kinder than you expect. Kinder to a soul like yours, one that chases only the things that set your spirit on fire. Dus, you’re not just someone who runs after dreams—you’re someone who believes in them. And that belief, that quiet hope you hold on to, changes everything. It inspires, it reminds, it heals. You are more than the strength people see. You are human, you are love, you are light. And I believe in you. Always. <3 Dustin Yu
