Dear Mr. Shi Tiesheng: Hello! I am a loyal reader, and I have been fascinated by your novel Ditan and me since I was a child. This novel gives me a deeper understanding of life and death and life with a unique perspective and in-depth thinking. Here, I want to write a letter to you to share my love for your works and my understanding of your philosophy of life.
In Me and Ditan, you described the deep feelings between you and Ditan with delicate brushstrokes, which made me deeply feel your persistence in life and your unique view of life. You have interpreted the most sound thoughts with your broken bodies, and I am deeply encouraged by this tenacious spirit. You taught me that even in the face of difficulties and setbacks, I can't give up my love for life and my pursuit of beauty.
Your works show me that life is like a long-distance race, and it doesn't care about the speed and the finish line, but about persistence and understanding in the process. You used your life experience and thinking to provide us with a unique perspective and let us see the other side of life. You let us know that only after suffering and setbacks can we truly appreciate the beauty and value of life.
Mr. Shi Tiesheng, your works not only give me a deeper understanding of life, but also give me a higher pursuit of writing. You explained the value of life with your words, which made me understand that writing is not only an expression, but also an understanding and feeling of life. I hope I can use my words to influence more people and convey my love for life and the pursuit of beauty, just like you. Thank you for leaving us so many valuable works and thoughts.
Brief introduction of Shi Tiesheng:
Shi Tiesheng is a Beijinger, 195 1 born, 1967 graduated from the middle school affiliated to Tsinghua University. 1969 65438+1October 16, Shi Tiesheng went to Yan 'an, Shaanxi Province as an educated youth to jump the queue,19710, Shi Tiesheng returned to Beijing because of low back pain and was admitted to the Friendship Hospital. The 3000 yuan borrowed in the hospital for a year and a half was spent, and finally the fate of complete paralysis of the lower limbs could not be avoided. He can only spend his life in a wheelchair.
The age of 2 1 year-old is the golden age in Wang Xiaobo's eyes, and it is the era when youth is about to blossom and bear fruit, but Shi Tiesheng has suffered a painful blow from fate. He hit a wall frequently in the process of looking for a job, and finally had to do some manual work in a street production team in Beijing.
He taught himself to write for seven years, but fate made him worse. Acute kidney injury developed into uremia, and the physical and mental torture made him once silent and even desperate. However, Shi Tiesheng, a strong-willed man, finally found a balance between suffering and life in his life.
While struggling tenaciously with his illness, he wrote a lot of excellent works on his deathbed, such as the novel Notes on Retreat, Prose Collection, Me and Ditan, Broken Pen by Illness, etc. Shi Tiesheng once laughed at himself, "My occupation is illness, and my spare time is writing". Although he lost his legs, he went further and even became a cultural landmark, leading homeless travelers in the spiritual wilderness.
