When I first began to babble as a child, the very first word I learned was “Mama.” Back then, I did not know that these two simple syllables would become the warmest refuge of my entire life. It was never merely a title, but the very first beam of light I reached for after arriving in this world.
咿呀学语时，第一个学会的词，是“妈妈”。那时，并不知道，这两个字，会成为我一生最温暖的归处。那不仅仅是一个称呼，而是我来到这个世界后，最先抓住的一束光。
As a child, the world felt like a vast and blurry ocean. It was my mother who held my hand and patiently taught me how to know it, little by little. She taught me integrity, but never taught me to diminish myself. She taught me to understand others, while remaining true to my own heart. She taught me to empathize with the world, yet still stand firmly as myself. She taught me to rise again after falling, to notice flowers blooming, and also to see human nature clearly and distinguish kindness from cruelty. When I felt hurt, she would gently hold me close; when I felt afraid, she would quietly push me toward wider horizons.
小时候，世界对我来说是一片模糊而巨大的海洋，是妈妈牵着我的手，一点一点教我认识这个世界。她教我正直，从不教我委屈自己；她教我理解别人，更教我忠于内心。她教我可以共情世界，但依然要坚定地做自己。她教我跌倒了要自己站起来，教我看见花开，也教我看见人心、分辨善恶。她会在我委屈时轻轻抱住我，也会在我胆怯时，把我往更辽阔的地方推一推。
When I was very young, she told me that if I did not like something, or if I was unwilling, I should bravely say “no.” She never treated obedience as the only virtue. Instead, she wanted me to stay faithful to my feelings and learn to recognize the true voice within myself. She taught me kindness, but also how to keep my edge. She taught me to understand others, while also allowing and encouraging me not to be shaped by the world at will. What she gave me was not merely manners or rules, but boundaries, dignity, and the courage to become myself.
很小的时候，她就告诉我：如果不喜欢或在不愿意的时候，就勇敢地说“不”。她从不会把“听话”当作唯一的标准，而是希望我忠于自己的感受，学会辨认自己内心真实的声音。她教我善良，也教我保有锋芒；她教我理解别人，也允许并鼓励我不被世界随意塑造。她教会我的，不只是礼貌和规矩，更是边界、尊严，与“做自己”的勇气。
As I grew older, I slowly realized that the things many people spend their entire lives searching for had already been placed into my life by her when I was still very young — freedom, resilience, and the strength not to be easily changed by the world.
后来我慢慢长大，才发现，许多人终其一生都在寻找的东西，她却早已在我最年幼的时候，放进了我的生命里——自由、坚韧，与不被世界轻易改变的定力。
When I was little, she sheltered me from storms. In my youth, she taught me courage and independence. As I grew up and journeyed farther away, I came to realize more and more that she had always been the source of my confidence and my way home. What she gave me was something even more precious — the ability to remain certain of who I am, to protect myself, and to become myself, even amid the noise and crowds of the world.
年幼时，她替我遮风挡雨；年少时，她教我勇敢与独立；长大后，我渐渐走向更远的地方，却越来越发现，她才是我所有底气与归途的来源。她给我的，是一种更珍贵的能力——在人群与喧嚣里，依然能够坚定地认识自己、保护自己、成为自己。
A mother’s love is like light. Not a blazing fire, but a quiet radiance that illuminates the long passage of years. It is more like a circle, with neither beginning nor end, silently flowing through every stage of my life — from the first words I ever spoke, to the first time I traveled far from home; from innocence and unknowing, to slowly growing into my own thoughts, choices, and direction. Through the long years of life, she has always remained the enduring and gentle light within me.
母爱像光。不是炽烈地燃烧，而是在漫长岁月里，安静照亮。母爱更像一个圆，没有起点，也没有终点。静谧地贯穿了我生命里的每一个阶段——从我第一次开口说话，到第一次离家远行；从懵懂无知，到慢慢拥有自己的思想、选择与方向。漫长的人生岁月，她始终是我生命里那束恒久而温暖的光。
In this vast and boundless universe, she is the only person who has truly shared a heartbeat with me. And the greatest blessing of my life is to have been loved in this way.
在这浩瀚无边的宇宙里，真正与我共享过心跳的人，只有她。而我这一生最深的幸运，是被这样的爱着。
Mother’s Day, 2026❤️❤️🌷🌷
