It was a drama so unforgettable, not only because it had an impeccable main cast, it also imbibed noble virtues that touched viewers.

Yes, who wouldn’t watch a drama headlined by Claudine Barretto, Diether Ocampo, John Lloyd Cruz, and Bea Alonzo at the time? But more than being a top rating drama, Ikaw Ang Lahat Sa Akin was a compelling story of grit and determination against the odds and resilience amid the worst ordeals while imbibing a sense of forgiveness and second chances that touched viewers throughout its run from May 16 to November 4, 2005.

It followed the estranged sisters Nea (Claudine Barretto) and Jasmin (Bea Alonzo), from their painful separation as kids that made them lead contrasting lives to crossing paths again as adults with complications that came with their tumultuous links with Ivan (Diether Ocampo), his fiancée Karri (Angelika dela Cruz), and brother Oliver (John Lloyd Cruz).

And, as turmoil took over their lives with filial strife, and worse, the heinous act of rape, the characters still found love, deliverance, redemption, and fulfillment in the end.

Everyone, indeed, deserves a second chance.
