Title: Prayer

Title (Original Language): 祈祷

Year: 2021

Words in the Drawing: “If there is a next life, I hope to be a woman with complete hands and feet. I beg the Buddha to let me be a teacher in my next life so that I can teach people to read. I had no chance to study in this life because I had to go out to work when I was very young. My father was a fisherman, my mother looked after people's children each day, and I went to sell cakes and life was very difficult. I am 80 years old this year, and although my hands and feet are not good, I still can draw. ”

Year: 2021

Words in the Drawing: “In the past, my husband and I lived in a chalet on the top of the hill. The air was good there, and we sold flowers to make a living. At the front of the house, we planted plenty of radish flowers, white pigeon flowers, and there were many hanging flowerpots. When we go out at night, we can see the starry sky and the moon. I haven't seen the moon for more than ten years since I entered the decrepit ward, and I hope there is still a chance to appreciate the moon again. I am 80 years old this year, and I hope that I can live my days safely and peacefully. Although my hands and feet are not good, I still can draw. ”
