This is Myson( i don't know the pronounce is correct or not? but it sounds like that haha) I like him at the first sight due to his infectious smile.

There is a saying that goes Eyes are the window of one's soul. However, his beautiful and pure eyes got infection which leading to lost his ability to see the right directions. In other words, what he saw was a confusion, not a wonderful world.

So he came to taiwan to have a surgery on eyes. 

I can't imagine how hard it is, especially for a 8 yrs old kid. But he made it with a brave heart. 

My friend said something about him and his background.

Actually, I can feel about the distance between him and his mom.

Though his mom companies with him in Taiwan, she seems like not much take care of him. He told me that he has three brothers and two sisters. What really surprised me was that all of the six siblings are not from the same fathers but 3! is that possible! Moreover, young mom doesn't know how to take care of children, so the grandma takes the responsibility for her. I am truly curious about is it a common sight in pacific island? 

I heard that he is a independent and clever boy. and he also treats his siblings well. He saved his packet money for buying some gift for them, not for himself. He haven't yet learned much English. Yet when I talked with him, he somehow knew what I said. He knew to keep his own money from his mom, cuz his mom just bought her clothes.

Last but not least, I hope you can keep your pure and warm heart for good. Facing any obstacle without fear in the future. I prayed for you, my dear.
