At this moment, I am the same as the road and the dust
Empathize with the wilderness, and wandering trees
Sharing the ownerless eyes
Did so many dreams
Will the night and tomorrow have mercy on us?
Life, a game of eternal fatigue

I set off without thinking because it felt so good to start. The world was suddenly full of possibilities.

Each of us is a star, and every star is the center of the universe. We travel freely and meet among ten thousand universes. Here there is no past and no future, only the endless present. All the present exists for you. There is only you, and no one can live the life you want for you except you.
——Chen Qizhen

After all, we failed to become
someone else, failed to master another skill
So we sit for a long time in the loneliness of the present
So we are included in infinite possibilities, like water
Expanding her territory along the sunken brick seams

Watching three movies a day, reading three books a week, and having good music albums are enough to make me happy until I die.

"A Room of One's Own"
Gradually, deep in our spinal cord, where the soul resides, something is ignited, not by the dazzling electric light we call talent, which only jumps between our lips and teeth, but a deeper, more subtle, and more hidden light, a bright yellow flame of rational communication. Don't be anxious, don't show off, just be yourself, don't be anyone else.
--Virginia Woolf

When the fog clears, I can
see the castle, the ramp, and the tops of the trees in the distance
Bathed in the morning light, I begin to regain my vision
I can see from afar the endless human life in which I am

Hateful Words - Zhang Xuan
#Handwriting #Excerpt
“Everyone is afraid of hard times. I don’t know if I am the one who wrote down the hateful words while reciting the lyrics that no one understands. There will be more in the future, and they will not be more varied and colorful. I will still think about the explanation I just heard and write down the hateful words.

On a cloudy day, reading Murakami on a wooden bench, I felt happy☁️
It was a long-awaited day off, and I read all day.
“People do not achieve immortality by extending time, but by decomposing time.” I felt that time was peeling off like fallen leaves, fissioning, differentiating, and spreading, and gradually gathered into a new form between the book and me.

Book list sharing: A Japanese literature and a green notebook
📖"Green Notebook: Poems of Four Latin Poets"
🌲A very worthwhile book that belongs to Che personally and to the whole of Latin America. I imagine Che writing down these poems in his hard work and running around, feeling a secret and long-lasting sense of fate from reading them over and over again, the bloody cry that grew from all the past oppression and exploitation, the teeth embedded in the Cuban soil, the black old man with a hunched back in the sugarcane field, the suffering people and the suffering land.
📖《Old prostitute copy》[Janpan] Okamoto Kanoko
🌲The emotions of the characters in Okamoto Kanoko's works are so delicate, like an inverted basket of sorrows that are shaken off and then twisted together. Men and women, love and sorrow, read with a strong Japanese Edo flavor. Unfortunately, the author repeatedly writes under the shadow of the times.

📖"Two Billion Light Years of Loneliness: Selected Poems of Shuntaro Tanikawa" [Japanese] Shuntaro Tanikawa
🌲"If poetry is compared to a lamp, the light of Shuntaro Tanikawa's poetry will illuminate places where natural light cannot reach."
📖"Shunkinsho" [Japanese] Junichiro Tanizaki
🌲Junichiro Tanizaki's narrative method is quite novel. It uses a limited perspective to explain the story in the biography written by Sasuke for Haruko from the perspective of a reader and an outsider, a paranoid and illusory pure love story. I saw a book review: "What the lover loves are fragments, and these fragments are also full of many misunderstandings. No matter how real and accurate the fragments are, they can only be pieced together into a seemingly whole part that is infinitely close to the loved one." I deeply agree.

📖《Unnecessary Enthusiasm》Liu Tianzhao
🌲I really like reading this kind of daily essay book. Compared with fiction and non-fiction literature, it is more of a sense of communication, and the vivid and delicate emotions are transferred from her to me. Liu Tianzhao dropped a drop of ink in my river, falling and spreading.
📖《How is your summer?》[Korea] Jin Ailan
🌲It is so well written. The words are like wet, rough stones thrown into a muddy pond. Jin Ailan's metaphors and descriptions are so natural, and the emotions are so delicate that they are like a very secret inner self-narration. The appearance of the poor, inferior, and twisted women at the bottom of the capitalist society is so clear. Those emotions are like ants gnawing at the dead skin on the edge of the nails, mixed together, and the interweaving of memories and the reflection of foreshadowing are easy to handle. Such comfortable and uncomfortable words.

Book list sharing📖
📖 "Hidden Valley Road" [US] Robert Kolker
The author's clever double-line narrative reveals the contradiction and sense of separation between the hope revealed and the despair of the Calvin family's decline from prosperity. In the end, the two lines overlap, just like a point in the universe meets another point after crossing a long light year. Thanks to the author for collecting materials with great effort. This is a great non-fiction book.
📖 "Eel's Journey" [Sweden] Patrick Svensson
The popular science research on eels and the secret and private story between the author and his father and the eels are narrated in two overlapping lines. The secret of eels in the Sargasso Sea has become a unique symbol, a holy grail, and a belief. Humans are the natural enemies of all creatures. After intervening in other lives directly or indirectly, they self-righteously extend a helping hand. Eels don't care about humans, and humans should be the same.
