兒子，祝你生日快樂

親愛的亮亮：
祝你18歲生日快樂。時間真快，媽媽已經為你寫了第十八張生日賀卡了。看你背著書包，拎著琴走進學校的背影，我感到那個曾經在繈褓中的小男孩已經是風華正茂的英俊青年了。你是我們的驕傲。這十八年裏你給我們帶來了多少幸福和快樂是不能用任何物質來衡量的。謝謝你，我的兒子。祝你順利完成高中的學業，進入你所夢想的大學。無論你最後上哪一所學校，我們都愛你。
Best wishes for a bright future. We love you no matter which college you attend, we love you no matter what grade you receive, we love you no matter how messy your room is. We love you! Mom and Dad.

A birthday Message, Son: "A son adds love to your life that lasts forever."

How to make a Wonderful Life: Reflections for my son on his birthday

Love yourself.
Accpt who you are and make peace
with where you are at this moment in time.
Don't wait for the world's seal of approval.
Be Happy Now.

Be your own best friend.
Make time each day to enjoy the pleasure of your company.
Do the things that make you smile.
Appreciate the things that make you "YOU."

Try. Take chances.
Trust yourself, even if you make mistakes.
Life can be messy and confusing,
but it can also be surprising.
The next rock in your path
might be a stepping-stone.

Remember that joy is where you find it.
When you don't have what you want,
Want what you have.
Make do.
It's a well-kept secret of contentment.

Know that there aren't any shortcuts to tomorrow.
You have to make your own way.
It isn't always easy.
It takes a strong spirit, an open ming, and a willing heart.
But you have all those...and more.
Life isn't days and years.It's what you do with time and with all the goodness
that's inside you.
MAKE A WONDERFUL LIFE...
The kind of life you deserve.
