The theme in //Jade Peony// is to spend the best of your time with the ones you love.

In //Jade Peony,// Sek- Lung was taught many things. He lwas taught how to make a windchime, he was taught of patience and how to listen, and he learned about his grandmother's days in China long ago. But he also learned some lessons. Sek-Lung learned that when your soul is called to leave, you must go and you can't fight death forever. He learned to spend as much time with his grandma as he could in her final days. Sek-Lung was patient with his grandma, and followed her examples. He watched her as she carefully and gracefully handled the fragile windchimes as she was making them. This follows the theme of the story because Sek-Lung did spend the best of his time with the one he loved, his grandmother. He never forgot about her after she passed.
