Lotus Garden

Quietly, we embrace in a world lit up by words

Thanks, my dear, for raising me up once more~!

On the writing journey, I am lucky to have you behind, accompanying me to go further and further~~! So this song is especially dedicated to you--- my dear friend, for you having been raising me up~!

You raise me up

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up… To more than I can be.

There is no life – no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

Dear Sister,

It's so lucky I've got Secret Garden's You Raise Me Up in my mp3 player... I'm listening to it right now. :up:

I first heard this song when I was junior 2. Those carefree days... I didn't seem to know what he's singing about. But definitely, I sensed something more than plan melody in his voice. My English was xxxx that time... And the only line I could make out is 'you raise me up'. But 2 years later, when I was faced with the pressure of High school entrance exam, I seemed to came to understand. It's love.

Truth is, I didn't have someone, or some girls to be clear, to love me at that time. The best thing to resemble love is my parents' love. They did everything for me- I can't even tell you how much- and I succeeded. There's no doubt that I can't do half what I did without them... I love them. Very much. They raise me up...

And now, as my friends become more and more important in my life, I'm getting more and more familiar with love. All kinds of love... Love between good friends are really gold. A Chinese writer once said, the quality of life is the amount of real gold you collected in your life... I'm glad to have so many caring friends... You raise me up... Thank you, sister...

Regards, Timm.
