“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the
ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade
winds in your sails. Explore dream discover. So I come to Sri Lanka, a country in my dream.
Sri Lanka in Chinese “斯里兰卡”. What a beautiful name! It is Nishadi who interviewed me in
skype, though the network is poor, she always smile to me. I remember her big eyes and
beautiful smile. That’s my first impression of Sri Lankan people. This trip was a deep
immersion into Sri Lankan culture and life!
I thought teaching poor areas’ children is a very meaningful thing. The children makes me
moved time and time again. Most of our students were quiet and clever .Just several are very
naughty but also lovely. Though the small village is not very rich, I can still feel their optimistic
heart in hard life. Everyday we come to school, all the students come out to welcome us, all
of class gave me loving eyes. we teach them some new words ,they will try their best to learn
and remember. The relationship between I and they were very close in daily life. We often
played games together. Furthermore, every student is very polite. They met us to say ”hello”
with smile every time.
The last week we came to school ,many students say to us “no china”,I can’t understand what
they said. After Nishan’s translation, I know they said ”don’t go back china”. I can’t help
crying. Their beautiful smile , pure heart is the most precious thing in the world.
It is hard for us to say “goodbye”, to the lovely students, to the friendly local people, to the
amazing scenery.
Thank you all the members in CN. Many kisses and hugs to you all. Nothing would happen
without you all.
It is my second home, I never forget every moments here. Miss you all. “
