Gerald Anderson has a lot to be thankful for this Christmas. He has a flourishing career and a supportive girlfriend. He credits his blessings to his faith in God. He explains, “There are people who drown their sorrows in alcohol or drugs. I chose to be caring and loving, so I help out in charities, which brings me a different type of fulfillment. When I’m feeling low, charity work makes me feel light. The more blessings I receive, the more I want to be a blessing to others!”
Gerald is also happy he has found love in Maja Salvador: “She will drop everything for you. She’s my rock and inspiration!” When he found himself caught in between ex-girlfriend Kim Chiu and Maja, he says he learned to turn promises into goals.
He elaborates, “Does it make me less of a man if I don’t make promises? My goal is to have a very long relationship—I want the kind of marriage that lasts a lifetime!” He is paired with Maja for the first time in the Christmas special, “The Gift of Life.”
