I was born in the historically and culturally rich land of Lung Yeuk Tau. This is the home of the Tang family, with roots tracing back to the Song Dynasty royal lineage. From a young age, I was captivated by the ancient Chinese architecture here—the majestic Song Ling Tang Gong Hall, the peaceful Tin Hau Temple, and the well-preserved walled villages. The community of Lung Yeuk Tau exudes a strong sense of tradition. Every Lunar New Year’s Day, we sincerely pay homage to our ancestors, offering sacrifices at their altars. On the second day of the new year, we host a vegetarian feast to welcome distant relatives, celebrating the joy of family reunion. The decennial Tai Ping Ching Jiao is the highlight of our community—lively parades and bustling temple fairs reflect the rich culture of Lung Yeuk Tau. I especially enjoy strolling along the charming streets of the old and new villages. The rustic blue brick walls, the scattered houses, and the mysterious watchtowers all radiate the unique charm of ancient Chinese villages. Every time I pass by, I listen intently to the stories of the past and present, as if I can feel the wisdom and footprints of my ancestors. People say that Lung Yeuk Tau, just like its name suggests, is full of life and vitality—a place where dragons soar and tigers leap. It carries the historical memories of countless years while thriving with energy, where traditional culture and modern life coexist harmoniously. As a child of this land, I take pride in my heritage and am determined to preserve its unique cultural legacy, ensuring that this magical land endures forever.

Once upon a time, in a village nestled at the foot of a great mountain named 山·, there lived two siblings: 火 (which means "fire") and 水 (which means "water"). 火 was full of energy and always rushing into things, while 水 was calm, patient, and thoughtful. One summer, the village faced a terrible drought. The rivers dried up, the crops turned brown, and the villagers didn’t know what to do. 火, with his fiery spirit, said, “I’ll climb 山 and find a way to fix this!” 水, always the voice of reason, said, “I’ll come with you. We’ll solve this together.” As they climbed the mountain, the air grew warmer, and the ground rumbled softly. At the top, they found a glowing crater filled with fiery embers. 火 picked up a burning rock and said, “Look! The mountain’s fire! Maybe we can use it to help the village!” But 水 shook her head. “Fire alone won’t solve everything. We need water too.” Suddenly, the ground shook, and the mountain began to rumble. 火 dropped the rock, and 水 closed her eyes, whispering, “Please, 山, help us.” To their surprise, the mountain listened. A cool spring bubbled up from the ground, calming the rumbling and sending fresh water down the mountain. The water flowed into the village, filling the rivers and bringing life back to the plants. The villagers cheered, and 火 realized that his fiery energy worked best when balanced with 水’s calm wisdom. Together, they had helped the mountain and saved the village.
