Happy thanksgiving!


Happy thanksgiving! It's the time of the year where we look back and find those blessings we never thought we had and those that are obviously under appreciated. I would like to give thanks to people who read this blog, one time or another, thank you for your support. I would like give thanks to my mother, who always supported me and taught me valuable lessons of life, thank you very much mom!  I would like to give thanks to my friends in and outside of school, for you have brightened my life and give me laughs and great memories, thank you so much and I am grateful to know each one of you! I would like to give thanks to my teachers, thank you for teaching us. I would like to give special thanks to my school teachers who wrote my recommendation letters and corrected my college essays over and over again, sorry for bothering you so much, Ms, Toews but thank you very much! I would like to thank Karen and Jenni, thank you for helping me with my Stanford application, thank you very much! I want to thank my father for the financial support and visiting us this year, thank you dad! I want to give thanks that my family here and in China is healthy and able to enjoy the wonderful meals. I want to give thanks that my mother is doing great in her school. THANK YOU, everyone!
Mostly importantly, I want to give thanks to Jesus Christ, my personal savior. For you have done great things in my life and without you nothing can be done! For I cherish your blessing in my life and remember your good works. For all the good things come from you, for your love and grace and patience and forgiveness. Thank you Lord!

And with that, happy thanksgiving!!!

Confinement

Confinement
Is drilled to the world
The sky is
Closing like the drips

On us

All colors
Fade into black walls
Sunlight
Has left us in the hall

O, ohhhh

Chorus
You give the golden lock a kiss
I know that Ignorance is not a bliss
This earth can't contain us
It's ready to be burst oh ya



This is a short one. I am still looking for the rest of it, or it might just be a really short song. One or the other.

May all the honor and glories be onto you, oh Lord my God!
Amen

Restart

Ever since I was a little boy I knew
That nothing was impossible
Then I grow up to be more like you
Now I am lost, crossed and confused

I was looking for something I thought I knew
But I lost it all to myself
It was an pitiful fight
No more blood since it has ran dry

One more chorus added to my life
Can it save me from all of my crimes
Oh tell me if this silver necklace
if this necklace is able to shine

Chorus
So zip up my mouth
And start me over again
Let my battery recharge
And my head rewind

I opened my doors and let you see
What a mess have I came to be
I missed my faith and lost the key
What a pity oh what a pity on me

So I opened my eyes to let my heart cool down
There was time when it was over running
To cross the distance of two continents
This is the punishment that I am learning

End Bridge
When that church bell rings and hurries me up
I knows it's time to open my heart
Let us start again
Let us start again


I did not intentionally frame or shape this one; it, more or less, stood out like it is. It was during a guitar secession and with somewhat random words that I discovered this bare, but truthful song. I must say that it is partly a confession to do this piece justice.  I must also say that this is one of my favorites which I held dear to my heart, like a genuine, plain, yet unrefined crystal.
