 ©ñ²´¥@¬É¡RAs a daughter to us

¡i©ú³ø±M°T¡jDear Katharina,

You have left. The room you once shared with us is now empty, dark and silent. You are a thousand miles away from us, on the other side of the planet. It may be a couple of years or even longer before we will meet again.

Last year you were the centre of our family. We had fun listening to your stories. We were so close. You were like a daughter to us. Neither your language nor your skin colour or culture stopped us from accepting you as a member of our family. We were very glad we met you, out of the seven billion people out there on earth.

The ten months slipped away before we knew it. We remember the moment we saw you for the first time at the airport as if it were yesterday. You told us you liked watching people passing by. That is life, which comes in different forms, with laughs, tears, fears and uncertainties. Life also provides us with choices, adventures to the unknown future and opportunities of meeting people. Explore the world without fear, and you will find your position in the world.

Your stay in our home was an eye opening experience. Your heart is kind and your mind is brilliant. They are your lifelong treasures. We are very pleased to have you as our daughter. You are always welcome to visit us in Hong Kong, which is your second home. We do look forward to our reunions.

With Love, So's family
