NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE, POE TELLS GRADUATES: Sen. Grace Poe stressed that no challenge can hinder a student from pursuing his or her dream.

Daisy (not her real name), who overcame the challenges of having Parkinson's disease, marched on Friday, April 28, at the graduation ceremonies of her batch at the Lyceum of the Philippines (LPU) campus in General Trias, Cavite, reminding others about the importance of commitment and determination in achieving one's goals.

In her speech, Poe extolled the character of Daisy and the perseverance of her mother, saying they are worth looking up to. The senator also advised new graduates to have the right attitude which is as important as attaining a degree.
