i chanced upon this one of the few online poems about the earthquake in Sichuan...




去天堂的路
The Road to Heaven

孩子,快
Child, hurry
抓紧妈妈的手
Seize mother's hand
去天堂的路太黑了
The road to heaven is very dark
妈妈怕你碰了头
Mother is afraid that your head is knocked
快,抓紧妈妈的手
Hurry, seize mother's hand
让妈妈陪你走
Let mother accompany you to walk
妈妈,怕
Mother, afraid
天堂的路确实太黑
Actually the road to heaven is very dark
我看不见你的手
I can not see your hand
倒塌的墙把阳光夺走
The collapsed wall snatch sun
我再也看不见
I never see it again
你柔情的眼眸
Your soft expression in your eye
孩子,你走吧
Child, you go ahead
前面的路
The road ahead
再也没有忧愁
It never has unhappiness again
没有读不完书
It never has endless study
和爸爸的拳头
And your father's fist
但孩子,你要记住
But child, you have to remember
我和爸爸的摸样
My and father's appearance
来生还要一起走
Also want to walk with you in next life
妈妈,别担忧
Mother, don't worry
天堂的路虽然有些拥挤
Although the road to heave is a lot crowd
但这里有很多的同学和朋友
But here there are many classmates and friends
每一个妈妈,都是我们的妈妈
Every mother, who is our mother as well
每一个孩子,都是妈妈的孩子
Every child, who is our baby as well
没有我的日子
The day without me
妈妈,你把爱给其他许许多多活着的孩子吧
Mother, You give your love to many alive child
我会记住你和爸爸的模样
I remember the appearance of mother and father
来生我们还要一起走!
We also want to walk together in next life

flying again

so next week, i will be off travelling to Germany for about 3 weeks, to do some exams in schools ...

i guess i am also looking forward to the few hours stop over in amsterdam.

other than that, i don't really know what to expect, especially when i haven't really taken care of the accomodation yet. the prayer i have is that God will watch over me, and create me a path of protected and blessed unpreditability
and memorable encounters and tales...
