World of Thanksgiving

"让我怎样感谢你,当我走向你的时候,我原想收获一缕春风,你却给了我整个春天."优美的诗句竞相传诵,感恩的心更要勇敢说出来.明天就是感恩节了,让我们也暂且抛开含蓄,对我们的家人, 朋友, 及我们所热爱的生活,真心地说一声"谢谢".双语周刊首次推出"感恩特刊",诚邀读者倾诉感恩之情.

To all men who loved me and I loved:
Thank you for your caring and love. Thank the lord for arranging our chance to meet. Whatever I do wherever I go I won't forget the time we experienced. Although we can't be together to get over the bitterness of life in the future, I never forgot the rare gift you brought for me and the happiest time you gave me. Please forgive any hurt that I caused. Let's remember the best part of each other.

On this occasion I want to show my sincere gratitude and thankfulness to my relatives and my friends, my colleagues and my readers. I would be much less happy if not for your unfailing care and support. And I also want to thank the ups and downs, windings and detours I have experienced, for without them, we cannot grow up into maturity and enjoy the happiness of today.

Each of us has a lot of things for which we should be thankful. They are things that we are blessed with every day in life, and yet, we get so used to them being there, we often ignore how precious these things are. Let us restart our life with thankful hearts from now on.

Dear Dad and Mum,
Thank you for creating a place called home. I appreciate your love and attention, your understanding and your patience through the years. You are the center of my small world and the star that lights my life, shining in my heart. Thank you for the hardships, the burdens of love and all the sacrifices that you have made for me and for the family.
Love
Your girl: Enid

Dear Dad and Mum,
Thank you for giving my life the opportunity of education. Now I have grown up but you are older. I believe I will have a beautiful future because of your love.
Love you, my dear and laborious parents.

Everyone is part of society. Everyone has a connection with lots of other people. We could be a huge family. So many of you give me friendship, care and support. Thank you very much. And thanks to the teachers of the MBA Center in Xiamen University. You bring all of us knowledge and ability.
We all live in nature. We get resources and our living environment from nature. Nature loves us so much. What should we do? Let us give back our love and respect. Let us protect the environment and take more care of its sustainable development.

每天都会说很多"谢谢",但很少是给家人的.只因为对家人的感谢最深,最重,在心里.
Thank you for being my family, I love you all!

Dad, I miss you
You are always in my mind whatever I do, wherever I am.
Can you hear me?
I talk to you at midnight, in my dreams
Can you see me?
My loneliness, fear without you,
Can you feel it?
My struggle, stronger, maturation,
You will be proud of me,
You will protect me forever,
Wherever you are,
I think you will!
You are always there!
You are always with me!
Dad, I love you!
Fengspecial opportunity to expre?
I'm willing to believe in your existence, my God!
Because nobody but you can give me so much.
Thanks to you for giving me a healthy body,
which enables me to offer as much as I can for people whom I love.
Thanks to you for giving me a kind heart,
my kindness and affection has brought me many sincere friends.
Thanks to you for giving me a strong character,
I always smile even after I have experienced so many difficulties.
Thanks to you for giving me an interest in learning,
I never stop learning in order to improve myself and be more helpful to others.
Thanks a lot, my God!
For giving me dreams and hope while giving me so many good things I desire.
I know I'm as insignificant as a little tree on the vast wilderness,
but I'll try my best to be a landscape so as to add a little more beauty to the world.
Because I know that my thankfulness is truer and my life is richer by the love that I give back!

Thank success and failure
Thank my past success, for the pleasant feeling encourages me to gain more success.
Thank my past failure, for the experience of trial and suffering makes my soul strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success expected.
