Jessy Mendiola took to social media to share life realizations as well as changes in the way she lives.

In a lengthy Instagram post, Jessy opened up strong with the statement: “I’m finally free.”

“I’m finally free of doubts, anger and insecurity. My whole life I’ve been in a constant battle with myself. I’ve always doubted what I could do. I was afraid of change. I couldn’t see my worth and how important I was in this life.

“Every little comment or opinion of others about me affected me like I was defined by how people thought of me. I kept losing myself just because I wanted to please others. I was afraid to do so many things that made me happy because I was worried that others would judge me,” she shared

As she continued, Jessy declared that all of these things she went through are finally over.

“I’ve let myself become someone else, all those years I kept hating myself for always giving so much to other people that I kept forgetting how to love myself. I’ve learned to let go of all the pain, the struggles, the failures. My entire life, I felt like I was on a roller coaster ride that would never end but finally, it has ended.

“I finally feel at peace. I‘ve lost who I was and now I found myself again only to learn that God has never left my side, he showed me how worthy I am and what I am capable of doing.

“For the longest time I was blinded by things I didn’t need in my life. I’ve been searching for peace in my heart and finally I found it. Everything I need is within me. God woke me up and made me realize my worth as a human being. He made me realize that He had been there all along in every step that i took in my life. He CHANGED me,” she said.

With all these words, Jessy seemed to be ready to face new challenges because she is “whole again.”

“He changed my ways, my thinking and my perspective in life. He taught me how to value myself again and I’m just so grateful... I’ve never felt this feeling before. It’s a wonderful feeling. I am whole again. I am not afraid anymore. I’m taking the leap. I am free,” said Jessy.

Jessy has been through a lot of controversies in the past years. These included being accused of stealing Luis Manzano, her current boyfriend, from his ex-girlfriend Angel Locsin.

Following their breakup in 2009, Luis and Angel got back together in 2014. However, they broke up again two years later.

It was January 2016 when Luis-Angel relationship ended, according to the male TV host. Five months later, he confirmed his relationship with Jessy.
