If you ask yourself why musicians charge so much for performances... We don't get paid vacation. We don't get paid sick days. We don't get bonuses for outstanding performances nor for Christmas. We don't have insurance plans nor do we qualify for unemployment. We sacrifice our family on special days so that we can bring happiness to others. Illness or personal affairs are not excuses for a bad performance. Next time you ask, remember that musicians are musicians because of the love of music, but that love doesn't pay debts. Happy Musicians' Day! Reblog if you're a musician. :)

Okay. I know I don't know what the "bad guys" in this video's idea of values is or whatever, but this is just... Inhumane. I do know that in China, girls are not really important. It may or may not be a factor. I don't know what those people were thinking when they just ran over her or just looked at her like she was just some dead rat on the street. No. This is just... I didn't even finish the video. I'm not being racist. I'm sure this happens in other places too; we just don't know it. I'm not condemning anyone. I don't know China's laws, but I do know that something should be done about this. I know those passers-by probably didn't help because they were saving themselves from possible punishment. I know I can't go to China and pass a law. I know I can't do much. But please... If anyone who has enough power to do something is reading this, please... If people didn't help because they feared of getting blamed or paying for her medical expenses, then maybe something needs to be done with the judiciary or maybe systems of hospitals with paying bills. Maybe I'm not making sense anymore; I'm sorry. This just breaks my heart.

To the people who ran over her, may you be forgiven for your actions and may you be more conscientious.

To the people who passed by her, I don't know what you were thinking, but I hope you will have enough heart to take action next time something similar to this happens, like calling an ambulance maybe if you're too scared to approach, and may you become more aware of your surroundings to do something.

To her family, may you have the strength to go on with life even after the situation.

And to Yueyue, may you rest in peace. I really do hope you are with your Creator now. We will be praying for your soul.
