Buknoy Glamur, a vlogger-influencer recently drew flak online over an insensitive comment about tricycle drivers. It started when Andrew Luis Lapid in real life made a statement in his YouTube post, which made a suggestive reference to trike drivers.
“Ang gusto ko talagang sabihin sa inyo is ‘wag na ‘wag kayong sumukong mangarap. ‘Wag na ‘wag kayong sumuko na tuparin ‘yung mga pangarap ninyo kasi kung hindi kayo magsusumikap sa buhay, walang wala kayong mararating tulad nito,” he said, referring to a tricycle driver which just came by.
The video was quick to received criticism which he later apologized for his insensitivity.
But just like any other people who found Glamurr's act too insensitive, J Capacio, a daughter of a tricycle driver proudly shared his father's dream for his family.

Capacio recalled his tricycle driver father's effort for the medication of her bone tumor while going to school and how his great dad strive to send his children to school.
"Tatlo din pala kaming pinagtapos nya ng kolehiyo. Halos di na yan umuwi dati kakapasada.
"Hindi mo alam ang nasa likod ng araw araw nilang pagbibilad sa init at alikabok ng lansangan. May mga pangarap silang tinutupad, buknoy. Mag aral ka pa, marami ka pa dapat matutunan," she said.

Although, she was saddened that her father was quick to experience the fruit of his labor, but later she realized that her father was happy now for his achievements.
Lastly, he asked his father to guide buknoy to clear his mind. "Gabayan mo din tong si buknoy tay, nawa'y tumuwid na ang isip nya," the post read.
