Silver hair, golden wisdom

Liu Xiaohui Harbin, Heilongjiang

The photo below of my mother-in-law, Ding Bo, was taken during the Mid-Autumn Festival in September when my family and I visited Harbin to celebrate with her. At 80 years old, she is as graceful and composed as ever.

Ding and I are both the first in our families to graduate from university, while my 22-year-old daughter, who just graduated from Oxford University this year, is the first in our family to study abroad.

Over the years, Ding has witnessed three generations of women in our family embrace endless possibilities through education. A lifelong learner herself, she continues to pursue her hobbies and is even writing her own autobiography. Her silver hair represents the unique charm of aging, reminding me that we should always live life to its fullest, no matter our age.
