序／導讀
推薦序
一位溫哥華醫生的祝福
「我忙碌奔波，期望每天有一個新的我。」Louise 這樣告訴我，她每在艱難時刻努力攀登之後，這正面的觀點就自然呈現。
Louise 是一個內心充滿憐憫和豐沛情感的美麗女子，她把自己的熱情投入音樂、寫作和繪透過旋律、文字以及畫作，捕捉那些讓她感動激情的事物，如此和鳴協調與她的內在靈性共舞，她在此與您分享她閃耀的生命點滴。
已故的蘇先生患病期間，我主治醫療他的病情。他具有堅強而偉大的性格，但是又像花朵般細膩溫柔的男人。蘇先生個性充分展現移民的典範，那不畏艱難的精神，讓他可以來到這個美麗的城市溫哥華。他生活中處處顯示了尊嚴，感恩和待人處事的風格，不存在於消極的情緒，時常處於平和歡樂的流動之中，最後他與病魔打了一次漂亮的勝仗。
這本書記錄了他們一家族的故事，平凡中的快樂，摯愛中的美麗。這些慷慨無私的分享，可以提供人們參考，更撫慰了那些走過類似道路的朋友。我堅信，這些表達祝福的感激之情，就是把它交出來獻給社會大眾。越有感恩情懷，生命就給更多的回饋。
這是我對Louise 和她家人的祝福。
關玉蓮
