With love…

It’s been a long long time since
the last time I spent my birthday
with my family.

Birthday isn’t as special as it used to be
when I was little.

It is still, a day that reminds me
how fortunate I am
to have so many wonderful people
in my life.
…and it makes me want to be the same
for others as well.

I want to be a person who brings
joy and happiness to your life,
just like you do to my life.

My dad is still in Shanghai so he couldn’t have
the birthday meal with us but
he sent me a message saying:

Go ahead, challenge as much as you can!
…but please be moderate and
don’t shock mom too much!

***********************************

Thank you for all the birthday wishes.
All your warm wishes
nourish my heart
and lead me to become a better and a warmer person.

So once again,
thank you so so much.
