This is an object that has been in my house for quite a while now. It’s a small light with two swans displayed on top. This object is important to me and my family because we bought this from china and it sets a reminder for our hometown. It has been very long time since we’ve been back to China to see our family so this object is something we cherish that we have not forgotten. Despite the broken head of one of the swans, we still display it in our cabinet to remember our hometown. This reminds of the the life I once had in China. The light had a soft glow to get me through the night when it was dark. Now, the light has grown dimmer but the light from my past will always shine within me.
