Biking takes to to many places, especially the gas station. When you leave my subdvision, and follow the main road, towards the east, you'd find that place. I remembered reading a well-informed article that talked about how biking can be really therapeutic and is a great low impact activity. It mentioned how biking helps keep my mind busy (and relaxed) while my body does all the work, and I agreed. Biking frequently allows me to build my muscles during the season where I rarely exercise, so biking improves my phsyical health. Additionally, riding on a bike helps me spend time with my friends who (also) share a common hobby. Whenever we get together, we would ride on the bumpy trails around few lakes in our subdivision and then try out tricks on our bikes. If you go down towards my friend's home, there is a circular road that surrounds many rocks and a large tree. It's a really nice place to try out new cool tricks. Also, I am very good at this trick where I'd lean on my left side, really low, and pedal really fast around the tree. Because of the many sunny days during this season, I get many chances to bike outside!

Answer:
In the story "Two Kinds" we learn about the conflicts that Jing-mei has with her mother, who wants her to become a child prodigy.
At the beginning of the story, we see that Jing-mei profoundly dislikes her mother's strategies and plans for her. She is determined to fight against what she considers is an excessive amount of control. On the other hand, Jing-mei's mother does not listen to her child and forces her to try and perfect many subjects that do not interest her and that she has no talent for. The main example of this is how determined Jing-mei's mother is to turn her into a piano virtuoso, even after realizing that she has no talent for music.
However, later in the story, we learn that Jing-mei's mother has passed away, and that Jing-mei has finally become more understanding of her mother's situation. She realizes that her mother suffered greatly in China, and that she wanted Jing-mei to have more opportunities than her in America. Jing-mei realizes that both parts of her heritage (China and America) are ultimately part of her and of her mother's experience. This is exemplified by the symbolism in the song with two titles ("Pleading Child" and "Perfectly Contented").
