Picture
this: heavy snow is pouring, trees being blown to bits around you, as
you attempt to navigate through the storm in a tiny Toyota Celica. We're
not talking just any road trip; you're trying to travel from Vancouver
to Toronto.
請閉上眼睛，幻想以下的景象。你處身於鵝毛大雪的嚴冬，凜冽寒風把樹木撕成碎片。這並非一般的旅程，而是在暴風雪之下，駕駛豐田Celica 跑車，從溫哥華穿州過省，前往多倫多。

This
seemingly impossible 3000-mile trip my father undertook in 1982.
However, with his visa set to expire, he had no choice but to undertake
this arduous journey searching for a new school and a new church.
Through it all, he trusted in God to guide him and bravely plunged into
the unknown.
1982年，父親的學生簽證即將到期，急需尋找新的學校和教會。在別無他選下，他橫跨加拿大進行3000英里長征。這趟艱苦的旅程，近乎是不可能的任務。當刻，父親信靠神的帶領，勇敢地闖進前頭未知的將來。
.
After
90 miles, he was already exhausted and plagued with fatigue. Yet he
fought on and believed with all his heart he would make it. In the thick
of the storm, the car's heating system broke, leaving my father
shivering in the cold confines of the Toyota.
可是，旅途來到90英里，父親已經筋疲力竭，飽受疲勞的煎熬。然而，他選擇繼續旅程，全心全意地相信，自己必定成功。 禍不單行，在暴風雪中，汽車的供暖系統失靈，在嚴寒之下，父親只好瑟縮於豐田坐駕中顫抖。
.
Forced
to sleep in the car at certain breaks, my father did not seek shelter
in motels, wanting to save money and time along his treacherous journey.
With little food and supplies, as well as the unforgiving snowstorms,
it felt like the entire world was against his decision.
為了節省金錢和時間，父親迫於無奈睡在車裡休息，並沒有選擇汽車旅館留宿。同時，糧食和物資短缺，暴風雪肆虐，整個世界彷彿都在反對他這個決定。
.
Yet
through all odds, my father traveled a staggering 3043 miles, driving
sixteen hours a day for seven full days, and made it to Toronto. He had
finally arrived at Hamilton, where he could renew his student visa and
join his new church.
儘管困難重重，父親還是每天駕駛16個小時，連續7天，終於到達3043英里外的多倫多。 他來到了咸美頓，在這裡續簽了學生簽證，並開始了新的教會生活。
.
We
dedicate this song to my father's miraculous journey, as well as the
journey we must all embark upon. Our lives teem with uncertainties.
Whether or not we will choose to venture forth into the unknown is
entirely up to us.
我們謹將這首歌記錄父親這趟奇蹟之旅，並為大家的人生旅途加力。人生變幻莫測，面對種種不確定，我們會否選擇冒險，勇闖未知的將來，完全取決於今天的決定。
