Inspiring Story of How 3 Friends in Philippines Graduated from Med School Got Over 46K Shares

We’re all in need of an inspirational story once in a while.

And this one, I gotta admit, really touches the heart.

See, we make many friends throughout the course of our lives. Some are permanent, some are not. And yet, that scarcity is why we value the permanent ones even more, and eventually form lasting friendships.

And that’s all the more so when you’ve gone through all kinds of ordeals together, whether it’s weathering high school in unison, grinding your teeth through medical school…

Or both, as this particular trio would attest to.

Inspiring Story of How 3 Friends in the Philippines Graduated from Med School Got Over 62K Shares

On 26 July, Facebook user Ching Macarubbo shared a post from GMA Public Affairs on her Facebook page, detailing the extraordinarily long journey she and her two friends have ventured on as a trio.

According to the post, it goes all the way back to 2011, when they graduated from high school in unison. Despite a lack of intention to enter the same school together, they still somehow found themselves applying for the same college.

Which, in hindsight, really cemented their friendship status.

“We have gone through so much during the years,” said the user. “On the brink of failure, crying ourselves out almost every night, tired & restless especially during our clerkship, but never took quitting as an option.”

And now, 9 years from that fateful day, they stand as the same trio, but with a distinct difference:

They’re now “living” their “vision”.

“Truly, the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams,” she said. “Wouldn’t have survived med school without you two.

“And of course the support of our dear parents.”

Well, you know what they say;

When you’ve been friends for ten years, it’s highly likely that it’s an everlasting friendship.

And when you’ve braved the toughest of ordeals together during those ten years, you’ve pretty much cultivated the perfect friendship:

One that wears through thick and thin.

Despite being posted rather recently, the post has become wildly viral on the social media site:

Netizens have also congratulated the trio, with some tagging their own friends to show their love and concern.

Well, well, would you look at that?

Love may make the world go round, but without positive friendship, the world will never even exist in the first place.

With that said, we would like to express our own heartfelt congratulations to the trio and hope that dozens of years down the road…

They’ll still be the best of friends, who go through thick and thin, not as individuals…

But as fellow graduates of school… and of all life has to offer.
