Toastmasters International District President: It Broadens My Outlook on Life
Hsu Bo-Liang, President of the F2 District of the Toastmasters International was impressed by "Mulan Joins the Battle", "It's a well-known story. When I saw the scene in which [Mulan] received the emperor's order, I felt something like a current going through me."

Hsu was amazed by the big turning wheel on the backdrop in "Knowing the True Picture Offers Ultimate Hope," "When I see the turning wheel, it tells me life is a circle. It broadens my outlook on life. Sometimes we put too much focus on ourselves and forget that a man is only a small part of things and we need to think about others more. The big turning wheel makes me feel that mankind in this universe is like a speck of dust, and so is everything. Those things that make us bitter and worry us are also small specks of dust and we should not let them bother us."
"In the 'The Udumbara's Bloom' the mystical flowers came out of a Buddha's hand and it was such a sacred feeling. It made me believe that many things we thought were unbelievable might really be true. If we are willing to change ourselves, I believe things will change too."
"The music went so well with the stories and the colors and costumes were rich and bold. A few simple colors can catch your eyes and properly express the exact feeling. Simplifying complex things made it rich and beautiful."
Hsu thought the story of "Mulan Joins the Battle" had a special connection with him. He said, "I want to see it again."
