All of us have some of favorite songs. I really like this song "grateful
heart" and its behind story.
In a very fortuitous
opportunity to hear a sign language song "grateful heart", my heart
was deeply shocked, Ouyang Feifei, desolate voice, beautiful melody, moving
lyrics, but can only use a silent language to express its deep connotation.
This is a real story
happened in Taiwan. An innate mute and deaf girl, her father died at birth. Mom
went to work early every day, doing the hard work to support the family. Every
sunset, the little girl began to stand at the door, looking at the door of the
road, because her mother every day brought to her with a piece of New Year cake
home. Poverty in their day, a small New Year cake is human delicious, and this is
the time when the little girl is the most happy.
One day, under a big
rain, has been a time of dinner, her mother did not come back. The little girl
stood in the door with hope, but no her mother's shadow. Days, became more and
more dark, the rain, became greater and greater, the little girl decided to
follow the way her mother every day go to find back her mother. She walked and
walked, finally saw mother lying on the ground at the roadside. She found her
mother's eyes have not close, she shook her body, her mother did not answer.
She felt fear, shake her mother's hand finding that her mother's hands tightly
grabbed a piece of New Year cake. She cried desperately, but cannot make a
sound......
Rain still continued, the
little girl kept crying. She knew that her mother never would wake up, left her
alone. The little girl wiped away tears, decided to use her own language to
tell her mother she will be alive well, feel free to let her mother go......
The little girl performed
the song “grateful heart”in sign language again and again: "thanksgiving
heart, grateful for you, with my life, let me have the courage to do my own;
the heart of Thanksgiving, thank fate, the flowers bloom, I will
treasure," she just stood in the rain does not stop doing, until her mother's
eyes finally closed......
