Be Careful with My Heart : Truly the Most Adorable Tele-Serye in the Philippines

Wazzup Pilipinas !

Do'nt you just love tele-serye (television drama series)? Does it really reflect our everyday lives? Can we Filipinos really see ourselves in it? Can many Filipinos relate to the stories, the drama, and the love stories?

My wife adores tele-seryes eventhough the rest of us find them "baduy". Especially the Be Careful with my heart which is like "The Kind and I" story but done in a Philippine family setting. 

Be Careful With My Heart is a Philippine daytime TV drama which started airing on ABS-CBN last July 9, 2012. It is the show early in the morning that can be seen before the noontime show Showtime. It is top-billed by Jodi Sta. Maria and Richard Yap.

"It tells about the story of a simple province girl Maya Dela Rosa (Jodi Sta. Maria) who tries her luck to the big city to pursue her dream of becoming a flight attendant. With this dream, she would not allow anyone to stop her in reaching it for this is her only way to help her family.



In her journey to reach her dream she agrees to become the temporary nanny of the problematic children of Richard Lim (Richard Yap). Richard is a handsome, wealthy widower with 3 children including Luke (Jerome Ponce), Nikki (Janella Salvador) and Abigail (Mutya Orquia). Maya agreed to look after Richard's kids most especially the youngest one, Abigail because she think that Richard is his only hope in pursuing her dream because of the great influence of Richard in the Airline Industry.

In doing her role as a nanny, she later on felt that she was totally involved with the family for she is making her way in succeeding in rebuilding the family's relationship that was lost when Richard's wife died. However, as she tried her best to play her role especially in repairing the family, she encountered a more challenging roles then. She is madly in love with the kids but not only that but with Richard also."

Gathering information from Wikipedia:

A simple girl, Maya De La Rosa (Jodi Sta. Maria), her older sister, Cristina Rose, and Cristina's son are introduced as tour guides for their hometown, San Nicolas with their mother running a souvenir shop. Money is often less than the living expenses and household repairs. Cristina hopes to work at sea while Maya dreams to become a flight stewardess. One rainy night, after an attempt to fix the roof, Cristina breaks her leg thus unable to complete her schooling to become a sea woman. With a large medical bill, the future and current expenses, Maya deemed it necessary to work overseas for two years to help her family. Upon arrival in Manila, Maya discovers that the woman who had offered work overseas had swindled her. Maya is stuck in Manila with no money or place to go. Relentless, Maya allows no one to stop her, not even the handsome, wealthy widower Richard Lim (Richard Yap), who reminds her of shortcomings.

Ironically, Richard is her last hope because of his influence in the Airline Industry. He offers Maya to become his children’s temporary nanny in exchange for his help. Maya succumbs to the condition. Upon entering the Lim home, she finds herself involved in the private lives of Richard and his three problematic children: Luke (Jerome Ponce), Nikki (Janella Salvador) and Abby (Mutya Orquia).

Maya realizes that since Richard’s wife died, the family’s joy died with her hence their problems. Maya tasked to bridge Richard to his children and eventually, she succeeds in rebuilding the family. However, in repairing their broken hearts, Maya encounters bigger challenges that test her determination and more importantly, her heart. While fulfilling her condition, she falls in love with the Lim children and, admittedly, with Richard.

Maybe someday I will get to love watching tele-serye. But there's just so many better shows out there especially in cable TV, and many which can be viewed and chosen in YouTube. So I really think it will take a while before I see myself watching one.

But there was one time I fell in the trap of getting hooked in watching one....and that was during the "Santino" days or the "May Bukas Pa" which stars child actor Zaijan Jaranilla.

It was a love story between God and man...and the possibilities that could happen if we just have faith.

I would like more of these kind of tele-seryes and not the "cheezy" ones that targets the mass public.
