Hi, NiuNiu

Today is so cold, -39~~~

We had some conversation for the snacks time tonight.  You asked me, "so you mean that I can hate someone?"  I hesitate a little bit, and asked you, "I really don't know your "hate" meaning.  If your "hate" equal to Chinese "恨" or " 討厭"," 不喜歡"?  If you "恨" someone, that I would ask you to stop, because I always think that "hate", and "sad" or "angry"  is the second punishment to yourself, and they will hurt you more. But you "討厭", "不喜歡" ,then you definitely can have these feelings. 

Do you remember when we went to the temple in Japan, one morning, we went to an old restaurant, the boss gave me extra 納豆, it tasted like some glue in your mouth, you like, but I don't.  The lady own the restaurant can't speak in English, but she wrote a word on a small paper " 嫌", I felt so sorry, and said, no, no, I am not used to have this food, then I don't care if she understand or not, I wrote "不習慣”on it.  You learnt some Chinese, but not much, I know some English, but not much, either.  I sometimes heart some kids yelled to others, "I hate you!"  But I do not really know what is that hate meaning to him or her.

You can hate the carrots, broccoli, bugs, worms, gym teacher,snow storm, rainy days, too hot, too cold, too much, too few.....right?   I accept all kind of these "hate". 

But for something or somebody, you need to be very carefully to think or say it.  Kind of your appearance that is naturally you had, and it is no use to say that you hate to be a girl, either.    And your family.  You can't hate to be one of us, because I and your sister, we really work hard to keep the family.  And you can't hate you are not smart as your sister.  I really do not feel much difference between the gifted person and a normal ones.  As I always said, it is only let you learn fast than others, but you will fail if you do not work hard.  And I heart not only once, your teachers and your friends like you very much, they think you are beautiful, smart, and very kind.

It is the most foolish thing to hate anyone, especially yourself.

Love~~
