Features: I have always believed that writing is the crystallization of the innate talent and dreams of a writer. The bigger the dream, the greater the perseverance in writing. But from my teens to now, I have never defined the size of my own dreams. Half a lifetime has passed, and I still have no intention of putting down my pen and "retiring" from writing. This kind of writing perseverance is truly hard to fathom. In the 13th century, there was a shepherd boy in Italy who spent his days watching sheep on the mountains. Bored, he drew sheep on the rocks, and eventually the entire mountain was covered in the various sheep he had drawn. One day, a great painter from the city came hunting and happened to see the boy drawing. He took the boy into the city, and the shepherd boy's life changed forever. Besides talent, dreams, and perseverance, perhaps a bit of luck is needed to help someone rise to prominence.
