She taught herself English from a dictionary with only a third grade education. Tells me everything I need to know about Mae. Very impressive!

[@RCFSULAW]

That is true. But once Paul met her and was serious he should have sent her to conversational English classes in town or online classes. If so her English would be so much better and it would enhance her KZbin channel.

Mae's story is very similar to my wife's. She lived a life that would have broken most westerners. Raised in dirt poor conditions and worked since age 14 sending all her money home. And still managed to teach herself English and put herself through CNA school! Hard to imagine that kind of life. I am in awe of people like that.

[@zombeets9432]

Baby Mae is so humble when she said that her english is not that good. For someone who only completed 3rd grade and has never left the Philippines and probably not had a lot of exposure to english language, her english is very good. She appears to be a good, sane woman. I admire her for everything she has done for herself and her family. Paul is lucky to have her. Wishing the two of you the best life together.

[@onealaska]

Wow. I’m an experienced traveler with exposure to many cultures and it never ceases to amaze me how much people can do and accomplish with nothing. Paul, Mae, thank you for sharing your private lives, being so transparent and vulnerable to your audience. Much respect to you both. 🙏🏽

[@glenjeffs6182]

Baby Mae's life was hard as a child, she knows the value of a hard days work. She appreciates you Paul, lucky man.

[@briane173]

Mae's story is SO similar to my wife's; her life as a child and as a teenager was so difficult, her family so poor -- yet her motivation to get up and go to work was helping her family - nothing for herself. The only thing she did for herself was attend high school -- something her 7 siblings never did, and her parents did nothing to encourage her, they wanted her to stick close to the barrio. She slaved and studied until she graduated, and then went off to find better work. One of the reasons I married this girl was her courage and resiliency in the absolute worst of circumstances -- and hers and Mae's is a typical story in the Philippines, especially for the women. I look at Mae and I want to break down, because she reminds me so much of my dear departed Mindy, and I miss her and her strength every single day. You're a lucky man, Paul; a lucky man.

[@thomasgordon1792]

This story of Mae's is very similar to that of my sweet Fiance Josie...born n raised in the poor provence out in Leyte..worked in the field helping her family even as a child..then started working as a 13 yr old down in manila after going through schooling only to the 9th grade..probably lucky to go that far in school...she's the 2nd kid of 9 siblings.. She's worked hard her entire life even through this month at age 39...it's wired into them to provide as soon as possible in order to help the family...I've never heard her complain ever from working so long and tough every day.. Sleeping on the floor..no bed..maybe a thin foam...it's crazy... The real issue is the average person doesn't make Jack as far as pay per day... I love her and think she's incredible!..

[@familyoffive5212]

This really struck me. We complain a lot for little things especially here in the US, people are just such a complainer. Mae is an example of how tough life can be for some people here in the Philippines. Im amazed that she was able to learn to speak and understand English despite finishing only grade 3 elementary. She’s smart and motivated but unfortunately not given a opportunity to finish to college. I can relate to this as I came from a very poor family but was lucky to get that opportunity to finish college and landed a good job here in the US. Hats off Mae.

Paul, please tell Mae for me to never be ashamed of where she comes from. At the end of the day, our beginnings don't matter. It's what we make of ourselves that really counts. In Mae's case, she can be very proud of herself. What really matters is that we are self-sufficient and give back to our family and fellow man in whatever capacity we are able. It seems to me Mae has done that in spades. God Bless!

Mae is so simple and you can tell she's genuinely proud of her humble family and beginnings. Paul could teach her to speak better English because you can see she's inquisitive and could learn more but because of her family's simple life, she didn't get the chance to go to school, to further her learning and have a good education. I'm also a Filipino from Manila and got a good education, a college degree and a professional and now living in the U.S. If ever I go back, I'd like to give back and help some co-patriots (or kababayan) to learn English which is not really difficult for most Filipinos because they're usually capable and efficient in learning another language. Thanks Paul for finding Mae and wish you both nothing but happiness and all the best.

[@Afrodizyak47]

I am Aussie and my parents were not at all well off. Dad was the eldest son and had im my late grandfather's German reasoning, had to work the farm. He was not educated beyond Grade 2 and spent his life working with horses and scrub (bush) clearing. The farm failed in after years of bad drought in 1936 and they walked off. He spent the majority of his life breaking horses and in stables. We were looked down upon by the rest of the family, who had the benefit of being educated. My dad was tough and hard working and he taught me the value of that. He had manners and compassion for others, and in particular, those whom were less fortunate than us. We were poor, but that is not a crime, unless you happened to be some of my opinionated relatives looking down on us. Mae, be proud in standing on your own feet and surviving. You retained your dignity.

Life has got a way of finding itself! Like Baby Mae I was born in the mountain, the eldest of 8 children, work in the fields, help my parents plant rice and vegetables for our own food. At aged 8, my mother wants me to stop school to take care of my siblings for her to work in the fields. But I like school so I enrolled myself without her permission, and did that year after year till completing Primary. Again my mother again wants me to defer Hi-school, so I worked as a domestic helper of an aunt for high school support, living with her, 2 babies, and her older parents. All the time I wanted an education and to be a teacher so that I can help my parents support my siblings for a better life. We Filipinos have always believed in this, helping our parents and our siblings, I did that and I am now a retired Registered Nurse here in 'Australia with my own family. worked hard, and serve all thru the mission by God's grace. Baby Mae be proud of who you are! As Paul says, we did not choose our birth but we can choose what to do with our life. be blessed and stay thankful and trustful to God and all. Blessed both, you are meant for each other for better lives in this world and beyond.
