"Perfect! Keep your hands light and follow the way my hands move." The mother said as she slowly guided her little to understand the art of life that was important in shaping her future and understanding. 

Little Li Wei's hands moved along with her mother's as they together moved the wheel to shape the vase they were making. Though Li Xue could not see her daughter's expression right at the moment, she could imagine how adorably focused she must be looking from the front. 

"WeiWei, do you know, this potter's wheel is like the life cycle that continues rotating and moving to make what we are in reality. Similar to the stage where we have to perform a lot of things … have to prove ourselves, not to others but to ourselves." She said as she took one hand of the girl to reach out the wheel to give it a little speed in movement. 

WeiWei nodded, notifying her mother that she understood the thing she was trying to say. Li Xue smiled as she continued. 

"Then comes this clay. They are our skills that we strive hard to learn throughout our life. Look how sticky they feel but the stickier they are the tighter they will hold themselves up with the water that can also represent the efforts that we put on to bring it in a nice shape". She added, dipping their hands into the water for once before bringing it to glide on the clay, pushing it lightly to bring the carving they wanted it to be. 

Their hands moved on all sides with care and concern. 

"I understand. But Mama, potter's wheel, clay, and water are something that we can see and touch so they are something that we can use and control. But I have learned in school that air can never be seen or touched. We can just feel it around. If we cannot control air then how will we use it?" 

The little girl questioned when thought of the third point that her mother had made her note earlier. Since she has said to remember it, WeiWei has done her job well. 

Li Xue smiled when heard her princess question like this. She never doubted her daughter's obedience but at the moment her question has only confirmed how concentratedly she was hearing all her words all this time. 

The conversation paused as even after a few seconds, the mother didn't give any reply to her little. Due to this, WeiWei's actions paused as well as she turned a little back to look at her mother in confusion. 

"WeiWei, beware, all your hard work will be gone if you lose your patience," Li Xue alerted her daughter when there was a sudden disruption in her hand movements on the clay. On the alert call of her mother, the little girl hurriedly turned to look back at the potter's wheel only to find a little abnormality in the shape. "If you don't concentrate and have patience in your work, your plans might become a waste." The mother added as she once again guided the clay and wheel in the right manner. 

"Oops, I am sorry, Mama. WeiWei almost ruined it." The little girl said, slightly feeling guilty but a smile also played on her lips when saw her mother had already helped her fix it. 

"Air is the same as this, sweetie. It's similar to our patience. Though we cannot see it, we can feel it inside us. Patience and calmness are all we need in our life. As long as we decide or try to understand things calmly, our decisions will never be wrong." Li Xue said slowly, bringing back the shape to the clay that has been temporarily lost earlier. 

WeiWei looked at it as well while nodding. "Same as this clay vase, Mama. Did you also shape it with your patience?"

"Mhmm … It required our patience to bring it the way it is right now. Though it looked like our hands were bringing it in the shape, it was actually the determination in your heart that was bringing it in the form. This vase could only come into the shape because in your heart you held the determination to bring it like that, sweetie, otherwise, this would have been impossible." Li Xue answered, explaining the conclusion that she wanted her daughter to understand.

The little girl heard everything but didn't say anything. Her silence, notifying Li Xue about her deep contemplation inside. She didn't interrupt her thoughts, instead worked on the last few strokes to end the art they were working on. 

"It's done, sweetie!" Li Xue said as she slowly but carefully cut the clay off the wheel to set it aside before washing her hands in the water provided below. 

Li Wei looked at the vase and smiled cheerfully. It was exactly in the same shape, she had decided earlier. "Thank you, Mama. I enjoyed it". She said before going to wrap her arms around her mother. 

"Aye, wait … wait, sweetie! You still had clay in your hands and there is no apron behind me. My dress would be …" Before she could even complete, the damage was done. She shook her head while chuckling at her daughter's actions. 

"Oops, I am sorry Mama. WeiWei forgot that her hands were dirty." The little girl apologized with a pout on her lips, while detaching herself from her mother. 

Li Xue ruffled lightly on her head. "It's fine, dear. We will soon be returning home. There won't be a problem. But Mama is happy that her baby liked pottery." She said as she brought her princess to the side to wash the clay off her hands. 

"Mhmm … Mama, I liked both pottery and the secret you told me about". The little girl chimed and to her words, Li Xue pretended to wrinkle her brows in oblivion. 

"Secret? Did I tell you one? How come I have not realized it?" 

WeiWei pouted at her mother's pretense but then said, agreeing along. "Don't worry, Mama. I won't tell anyone that you let out this secret but at the same time, I will never forget it". 

"And what's that you will never forget?" Li Xue asked as she bent down again to unwrap the apron from her girl's behind, intrigued to know if her princess had understood her words in the right direction. 

WeiWei stared at her mother. "Mama, I understand that piano will not be fun for me, because the determination to learn piano is not coming from my heart but Xiao Fei's. My heart is determined to become someone like Mama and Daddy Angel. So, WeiWei will not learn piano. She will instead go for pottery because she felt pottery was more fun". 

At her words, Li Xue could only facepalm herself. Though the thoughts and lessons were delivered well, she never knew her daughter would be more efficient to think of the things that were far ahead of her plans.
