"It takes ten years to sharpen a sword." Growing up in difficult circumstances, our children face a bumpy road and uncertain future. Nevertheless, with unquestioning love from their families and kind assistance from others, these children preserved their innocence and ambition to thrive, never complaining nor abandoning their sense of responsibility to family and society. This reminds us of a line by poet Wang Bo, "Be strong in the face of adversity, never give up your ambitions and the sky is the limit."
