Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. It’s easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission. Once a woman has forgiven her man, she must not reheat his sins for breakfast. ~Dodinsky, Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it. ~Henry Ward Beecherįorgiving is rediscovering the shining path of peace that at first you thought others took away when they betrayed you. Forgiveness ought to be like a cancelled note – torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one. I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive. This is Jason Wade, the vocal of Lifehouse.

He also sang the theme song “Flying with the Dream” with Han Hong during the Paralympics opening ceremony on September 6, 2008. He led other performers in singing and performing the song “Everyone is No.1” at the Beijing National Stadium just a few hours before the 2008 Paralympics opening ceremony began to show his support for the disabled athletes. In addition Lau, who has been supporting the disabled athletes in Hong Kong for more than a decade, was appointed as the Goodwill ambassador for the 2008 Summer Paralympics. Lau sang alongside Jackie Chan during a part of the 2008 Summer Olympics closing ceremony on August 24, 2008. Since the early 1990s, Lau, along with Jacky Cheung, Aaron Kwok and Leon Lai have been referred by the Chinese media as the Cantopop Four Heavenly Kings (四大天王). One example of a Hokkien song was (世界第一等). Besides singing in Cantonese and Mandarin, he also sang in other languages, such as English, Japanese, Malay, and Taiwanese. Some of the most notable hits by Lau include “The Days We Spent Together” (一起走過的日子), “If You Are My Legend” (如果你是我的傳說), “The Tide” (潮水), “Forget Love Potion” (忘情水), “True Forever” (真永遠), “Chinese people” (中國人), “Love You Forever” (愛你一萬年), “You Are My Woman” (你是我的女人), “Secret Admiration” (暗裡著迷). Many of his songs quickly topped the music charts, not only in Hong Kong, but also in Taiwan, Mainland China, and in many different parts of Asia.

In the 1990s, Lau was branded by the media as one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Cantopop (四大天王) along with Aaron Kwok, Jacky Cheung and Leon Lai. Lau has been one of Hong Kong’s most commercially successful film actors since the mid-1980s, performing in more than 160 films while maintaining a successful singing career at the same time.
