*3rd poem in this book dedicated to Xiao Zhan. By the title, it's self explanatory.*

Life force flows from head to toe
Purest soul smile that few get to experience or understand
Young man stands tall, because in your heart only you know
Mountains and valleys lay at your very hand

Life is a matrix that takes you on winding roads
Good or bad is all a motion, on the path towards everlasting enlightenment
Age for many of us has made the trip wiser with many loads
Only with going through each thing, will your soul's message be sent

You've endured, you've suffered, with Chongqing spices in your veins
Not stepping away, even during the hardest hours
It brings me honor, pride, and joy to know your name
To be an I-fan, sending you strength, as that's my power

Films, endorsements, series, shows are the near future you hold
I look forward to your full return, with blessings from above
In this world you're hugged within a large fold
Forget it never to sing forever, from America with love.
