My mom is an amazing woman. She never says she loves my brother and I but we know for sure that she does love us unconditionally. She dedicated her life for husband and children. Eventhough she is not here by my side, I know that she is always with me in spirit, caring about me, encouraging me. Therefore, no matter how hard this life is, I will be strong and never give up. Knowing that there is always someone loving me, thinking about me and watching over me greatly empowers me to go on with pursuing my dream.

She always says that she does not miss me but she cannot deny that she misses my massage. I never say that I miss her but I must admit that I do miss her cooking and her voice calling me for dinner. I have learned some new massage techniques recently that I know she will like it. Thus, I'm looking forward to seeing her and practising these new techniques on her. However, I will still keep going on with what I'm doing now as I know it will make her happy and proud of me. I also need to be happy and take good care of myself so that she will not have to worry about me. Anyway, I hope to see her again and eat her dishes soon.

"Keep smiling, girl". That was what a customer had spoken to me today.

Recently I've faced many challenges in my life. However, when I go to work I always try to keep a smile on my face hoping that it will make my customers feel pleasant and cheerful. I know that if I had a bad day or was bushed and someone showed friendliess to me, it could cheer me up. That's why I want to do the same thing to my customers. When I see they're happy, I'm happy too.

I hope that I can continue to keep this positive attitude and overcome all these difficulties.

Today I decided to do something that I've never done it before. That is writing a blog. I started a diary several times before but I have never kept it for long. I don't know how long I can keep this blog but I hope it could last longer. I'm going to use this blog to record what happens in my daily life. Possibly when I read through these blogs someday in the future it could remind me all the things that happened in my life and how I thought about them or what I actually did back then.

Today I went to the English conversation class at the Church. Our theme this week was "What you could do to make the world a better place?". It was a difficult topic especially for an ordinary person like me. I believe that to make the world a better place I myself must be less selfish and make more effort to help people around me. I will also try my best to find good virtues in people I meet rather than their bad vices. Being more compassionate and tolerant to differences can help to better this world too.

My life has changed a lot recently. However I'm still keeping a positive outlook on life. I believe that if I climb over the mountain, I can see the sun. It's just there waiting for me. All the best for my family and friends. I love you all.
