Some of Symbolic Milestones

At my aunt's house, I saw  two of  my copied Chinese paintings back in China: one is Fu Baoshi's 即从巴峡:

剑外忽传收蓟北，初闻涕泪满衣裳。却看妻子愁何在，漫卷诗书喜欲狂。

白日放歌须纵酒，青春作伴好还乡。即从巴峡穿巫峡，便下襄阳向洛阳。

  And  Chinese dates which I picked up from the Palace Museum, here I got from a backyard in New Jercey.  These I took as symbol of my new milestone, or a graduation.  Year 2016 would be a harvest year for me: my 2nd book will be marketable for clear classification by tones and lower price.
