"The Morning Dewdrop" is one of my favorite compositions. One early morning, I was out doing hard labor along with other men who were in the same situation as mine. The forest and mountain were so vast, one couldn't see the horizon. All seemed endless. Like time. Holding the hoe - I was thin and weak then - I looked faraway. Then I looked closer. Oh, on the plants and grass right under my feet, there was something wondrous. Dewdrops were still lingering on a blade of grass. So sparkling. So gorgeous. And the trees and grass around me were so green and fresh. A tiny dewdrop, though its existence utterly short, still benefited the world. Therefore we, despite all adversities, must overcome them to survive and lead beneficial lives, so as not to waste a lifetime as human beings. That is the message that I'd like to convey. Actually, it is common to view anything we created to be our "favorite", because it came from our heart and mind, as our own child (in spirit). I am not a professional composer, but I was moved by the surrounding at the time and this song was born. I'm thankful for the lovely dewdrops of that year. And I thank you for listening. - Ly Binh Son, USA
