Hi!

Our life is filled with magic drama, humble greatness and silent triumphs. But we float away so easily. My professor used to tell me, when I was an undergraduate, that “you need do nothing but learn more Shakespere”. I have learned over the years though, we are all Shakespere by ourselves. Only that we write not with a pen, but a heart of a thousand layers.

我们的生活充满了戏剧、卑微里的伟大、平静背后的惊心动魄。但我们像是划水一般,经过了它们。大学时候,我的老师说,你们什么都不需要做,只需要好好读莎士比亚。现在我在想,我们每个人都是莎士比亚。只是我们用的不是笔,而是我们起伏的内心。

An ordinary life is respectable. Every ordinary life is worth memorizing.

每一个普通人的生活都是可敬的。每一个普通人的人生都是值得书写的。

This blog and everything I will write/have written is a delayed response to my dad.

He used to tell me, it’s good to learn a foreign language.

我的父亲说过,学语言是好的。

这是我对父亲的鼓励的遥远的回应。

My heartful thanks goes to my dad and every one that supports me with their love and patience.
