STORYLINE:
In southwest China's Tibet, people traditionally name their babies after blessings.
Following the peaceful liberation of the region in 1951, more and more newborns were named to record the development of the region, the country, and the changes in their lives.
Sixty-three-year-old Jingdrol is one of them.
Lived in the Dagze District in the regional capital Lhasa, Jingdrol's parents were both serfs.
They used to starve and had barely enough clothes.
The situation changed after the democratic reform in 1959.
