The Treasures of Tomorrow

Allow me to be reborn in the same village, with requests for heartfelt transformation.

I wish for my parents to fall deeply in love with each other before they unite.
Although the mountain in the upper valley may remain unmoved, storms, floods, and spring streams can gently reroute downstream.

I long for trees to grow freely and be liberated from the chaos of winter\'s demands.
I want all birds to have stronger wings to evade the dangers of captivity.

May the burdens of adulthood be lighter, and may the high expectations placed on young children be kinder.

I dream of a village alive with music, dance, and poetry, where dark magic, superstition, and negativity are banished.

Please eliminate abuse against children, allowing them to flourish in a land abundant in God\'s love and sunlight.
Furthermore, I request sufficient food, new seasonal clothing, school textbooks, writing paper, pens, and pencils for the treasure of the future, who hold your love within their hearts.
