花的心_藏在水中

 

 

Hi, Sam,

 

This is the first night for you to leave home and to live independentaly (partialy). Like every other important moment in you life so far, for instance, your first day to kindergarten in Taiyuan, first day to Mckee…(every sight still in my mind, just like yesterday) you may feel somewhat ancious. Anyway, it finally comes, like any other things else that deemly happen in everyone’s life.

 

Remember you asked me,  whether I could be happy if I could have another child who is better than you. What a stupid question! Of cause I won’ want anyone else but you. Not just because we live together for eighteen years, but you are such nice boy who has so many traits that I am satisfied at, moreover I do believe thoes traits play more important role in one’s life and contribute one’s success, rather than school marks.  

I just tell you couples of moments of many good memery you brought to me: you were grade six or seven, I was taking night shift quite often and back home to sleep at eight am. right before you went to school, you used to touch my face and say mom in soft tone. I was half way asleep but still felt so warm; in you high school, we bought you a cellphone, which was a old model. I appolegied for unable to give you more advanced smart phone, you replied,"mom, what ever you give me , they are the best for me"  It is so touching ! Specially this time you back China alone, we were so happy to see your grow up. Both your dad and me feel so glad that you could split money to your aunt.

 

In the first night you be alone, and the time when you almost reach your adulthood, I want to talk w you about something:

First of all, be healthy, both physically and mentally. We have one body and have to look after, because health is the first prior to anything else. 

Secondly, be open, open to people, the world and any oppertunity.

Be positive, the world is not perfect, human are not perfect. We can not change the world, but we can change the perspective we view the world. 

Lastly, be youself, no body perfect, accept your weakness and try to make up, but never force youself if you instinctly againt, follow your heart.

 

No matter where you are, remember we love and supoort you regardless, home is always there and open door waiting for you. Starting from today, we will have our own holiday which is the day you are home.

 

love you~
