This book is a warm collection from the author's heart.
It is divided into three parts: "Opening·Characters," "Middle·Sketches," and "Closing·Reflections,"
narrating 63 stories from the author's life in a delicate, natural, and lively style.
From Shanghai to the United States, from the East to the West, I have gently walked and quietly reflected
through the rise and fall of the sun. In the dim room of my heart, I left 63 negatives;
between familiarity and strangeness, in the space of longing, I captured 63 stories;
between noise and quiet, on the stage of life, I witnessed 63 dramas;
between this shore and the other, in the fragrant earth, I sowed 63 seeds.
Nourished by the rain and dew for over six months, under the sky of the other shore,
the seeds sprouted, grew new leaves, bloomed flowers, and bore fruit.
These are 63 heartfelt gifts I have carefully cultivated for my readers—my observations, experiences, thoughts, and feelings.
Although I do not demand the austerity or elegance of the words, I focus on the genuine emotions in the articles.
