I am full of gratitude for life. I am so ordinary and so lucky. I am lucky that the leaders of the experimental district government attach so much importance to culture and support literary activities; I am fortunate to have the platform of "unnamed literature and art" and the love and care of Teacher Jiang and Teacher An. I was lucky enough to meet teachers like Chen Youcai and Shi Hongyu who cherish the rising stars of literature and art, and they loved me and spoke highly of me. I know this is both an encouragement and a spur. Every time we meet or call Mr. Chen, a history teacher, thousands of people tell us to write articles well. That warm heart is just like I treat the children in the classroom. As a teacher, I have a profound experience that treating students is often more urgent than treating children at home. Teachers have high hopes for us and hope that we can go further and more solidly on the road of literature. Teachers run for us and cheer for us with enthusiasm. All these are great encouragement to me and make me feel that I am not alone on this road. On the way forward, I have the direction and motivation to move forward.
Thanks to the encouragement, support and help from all sides, my collection of poems "Autumn of Wild Chrysanthemums" was published today. Holding this new book with ink fragrance in your hand is like holding your own child. That kind of love and treasure may only be truly realized by yourself.
I write because I love my hometown, a hot land where I was born and raised. I love the sky, nature and my sunny life. I always write what I see, hear, think and feel with a grateful heart. Whether it is social or personal spiritual world, whether it is books and ink, or real life, I let it flow quietly in my pen. Not only that, I also set up my own original literary blog on He Xun, Sina and other websites, studied and communicated with friends from all corners of the country, published hundreds of poems and essays, and gained a lot of popularity and click-through rate.
I write because of a spiritual need. The voice in our throat is language, which is suitable for communicating with people; The language of writing is the voice from the heart, which is more suitable for dialogue with yourself. It is sometimes difficult for a living person to live in harmony with the outside world. We need to observe the society, look at ourselves and examine the soul through words. We should first build a harmony in the spiritual world and truly see ourselves, then we can build social harmony and see the reality clearly. So I think writing is a need, a cultivation and a precipitation.
I am willing to be a humble little flower and grass in my hometown. As long as I can add a luster to the land of my hometown, that is my love for my hometown. I prefer to be a wild chrysanthemum, lying quietly in autumn, adding a touch of charm to my hometown of autumn scenery, leaving a touch of elegant fragrance on the roadside and bamboo fence in rural Shan Ye, opening and dying peacefully, simple and simple. Based on this idea, I named my new book Autumn of Wild Chrysanthemums. I hope it grows leisurely and gracefully in its hometown in its own season, standing in the wind and not afraid of the wind and frost.
It will be a great comfort to me if I can contribute my meager strength to the development and prosperity of Ji Ye culture. It will be the greatest happiness in my life if I can inherit the rhyme of King Yulie in the future and make it spread and carry forward. I will use the convenience of education to guide more children to fall in love with words, our regional culture and traditions, and let our unnamed spirit and rhyme be passed down from generation to generation and never grow old.
I am grateful to the experimental district government for giving me this opportunity to exchange and learn, to the teachers and friends who have cared, supported and helped me, and to the leaders, guests and dear friends who attended the meeting today. I hope I can live up to your love and continue to get your support and help. Thank you sincerely!
