[laughter] So, I'm going to tell you a story about this. So once upon a time in a small quiet village, there lived a little girl with her loving mother. Even though they had very little, what they did have a lot of was love, laughter, and hope. But one winter, the mother became very ill. Many thought she did not have long to live. The little girl prayed for her mother to get better, but her mom just
010got worse ever. The little girl did not know what to do. She went around the village seeking for help. >> Finally, she met an old wise woman who told her [laughter] about a single flower that grew on the largest tree on the forest. The old wise woman said that however many petals there are on the flower is how many days her mother would live. When the girl finally found the flower, she was so disappointed to see that it only had four big petals. Suddenly, a thought occurred to the little girl, and she began to tear the big petals into smaller and smaller petals. The flower shined, reshaping itself into a chrysanthemum with countless petals. At home, her mother slowly got better. The little girl ran home with the flower and saw the old wise woman
011waiting at the front door. Her mother recovered and the chrysanthemum became a symbol of devoted unselfish love. All right. And now just wish everyone a happy new year. That's it. My shine and my name. >> [applause] >> Thank you. Happy new year. If you're sitting in the front area, please stand up. We're live streaming.

Today, our students perform a skit about the two sisters who are among the most honored heroes in Vietnamese history.

With courage and determination, [laughter] they gathered all people from across the country and led a powerful uprising to drive the foreign army out. Their victory brought freedom to the people [laughter] and they became
