I remember as a small child people would often ask me, "What are you going to be when you grow up?"
Well, it being a cowboy or some super hero. Later it was a fireman, a policeman, a lawyer... As I grew older my dreams for the future . When, at last, I was in college, I had my set on becoming a preacher (牧师) like my father. I studied and prepared for that life. I reached the in the end and I was preaching full-time for much of my adult life.
