“I believe that great things truly come at the right time and season of our lives,” Zephanie quips. “I just can’t put into words how happy and grateful I am to be given the opportunity to sing “Aking Hiling” and be a part of Disney’s 100th anniversary celebration here in the Philippines.” Zephanie adds, “Nakaka-relate talaga ako sa ”Aking Hiling” as a dreamer who grew up watching Disney movies and shows. To believe in the power of one’s wish is such a strong message that the song puts across, so I hope this will inspire us further to go after our hearts’ wishes.”
