Letter to Iris

Dear Iris,
As you say, God is so good to us. Since 2003, we experienced HIS grace endlessly. I trust that our LORD will carry us to another new chapter of our life. Even though I am not really sure what’s next step. I just take it step by step according to HIS lead. I am so glad that we go through so many things during the past year. We understand one another more and more as our love grow deeper and deeper. Thank you so much for your support during the past 4 years. Without you I can’t make my dream come true- study abroad in State, study at LTS, go to short term mission trip in China, etc. I can’t make it happen without you. As you know, I need you on my side as we walk together. We are partners and coworkers for HIS work. I love you.
Your love,
Terence

To my dearest wife

To my dearest wife, Iris:
I miss you and longing to see you. I want to use this poem to express my feeling.
My love.

e.e. cummings - i carry your heart with me
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart)
i am never without it(anywhere i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling)
i fear no fate(for you are my fate, my sweet)
i want no world(for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
