Living half a century

Allows me to perceive

The beauty of my life

The test of growing up

The relief to obtain a degree

The pleasure to travel the world

The excitement of getting married

The miracle of being a happy mother

The delight of having an artistic daughter

The blessings of a talented son studying abroad

The honor to serve my church and the community

The acceptance to realize what I have and don’t have

The challenge to publish my memoir in a foreign language

The desire to finish my Bilingual Children Book Collection

The pleasure to publish my first Bilingual Poetry Book

The chance to be me and the energy to live one more day…

Thank you Lord!
