He is the king of kung fu of a generation,
achieving fame and fortune, yet still finding it difficult to attain that ordinary happiness. At 61, Jet Li, despite having the halo of an 'international superstar', cannot gain the fulfillment of having his children inherit his legacy. His eldest daughter Jada is dedicated to psychology, his second daughter Jenna is committed to public welfare, and his son has chosen the academic path; however, the family rarely appears together in photos.
If time could be turned back, perhaps he would find a better balance between career and family: making one less movie, attending one more parent-teacher meeting; having one less overseas promotion, enjoying one more home-cooked dinner. But life has no 'what ifs'.
As he said: 'When I was young, I pursued the dream of kung fu, but now, I understand the preciousness of family.' Fortunately, even though his children did not follow the path of martial arts, they still shine quietly in their respective fields.
Life is like climbing a mountain; some are enamored with the sea of clouds at the peak, while others are content with the smoke from the cooking fires halfway up. Jet Li has spent half his life building a kung fu myth, and in his later years, he has laid down the sword and picked up Buddhist scriptures, quietly engaging in charitable work with his wife and daughters. The martial world will eventually forget 'Huang Feihong'.
