Sister Theresa Hsu just passed away. She said that she wants to live to the age of 120. There were many things she wanted to do.
Since the year I got to know her, she has been an amazing inspiration to me in many ways.
She has an unbeatable spirit to go for the things that she believed in. She wanted an education and put herself through school. After the war, when she realised that nursing is a skill that can help people, and wrote to many schools to enrol herself. She was already past 30 then. If you talked to her, it is always about her brothers and sisters that she is always thinking. She is never afraid to do the things she believes in and she knows help always come her way.
She never stops learning. She picked up yoga only after 60 years old and went on to be a yoga instructor, and even at a ripe old age past 100, she was always reading. Shelves after shelves of books filled her house.
I want to live to the age of 200 cos there are many things I want to do. How old do you want to live until? How do you want to be remembered?
