DW and I brought DS to attend the Hong Kong candle night vigil last night to commemorate the student, worker and citizen victims of the 1989 June 4 Beijing Tiananmen Square Massacre. It was my 21st time attending the vigil. I am glad to know that more and more HK younger people come out demanding basic human rights in Mainland China.
DS burst into tears when we, for safety reasons, blew out the candle when we were getting through the 150,000 people of the vigil. I had tried to offer him a distraction, but it didn't work. At last, I re-lighted the candle and held it together with him again. His tears immediately gave way to smiles.
