Kim Hwa,
93 year old Grandmother


As a grandmotherly figure of the only grandparents alive on my dad's side, she was the one that brewed over me.  Shielding me from my father when he was punishing me, she fell down instead. 

I am awed by her spirituality, her devoutness and ability to hold on to the Christian faith. Whenever there was a problem, she would just say "pray about it".

I am amazed and inspired as she stands out as the guardian of her life.



" Heroes need not be the ones in capes or have a muscular physique, they are your everyday ordinary people with an extraordinary mindset. "


Kim Hwa,93岁的婆婆

身为我唯一一个还活着的婆婆,是她,一直守护着我,
照顾着我。

小时候的我非常地顽皮,每当被爸爸讯罚时,婆婆一定会替我挡。不辛的是,为了保护我,婆婆竟跌倒了。
 
我很尊敬她,也赞美她对神和基督教的虔诚。当我们遇到困难时,她就常说  “祷告吧”。

对婆婆,我不止感到很敬佩,她也是我启发的来源,因为她是自己的守护者。

“英雄不一定是披着肩的,也不一定需要一身强壮的体魄, 英雄,是有着一颗不平凡的心态的普通人”
