In mid-March, I had the pleasure of learning about a young female writer.

Her real name is Li Jing, her pen name is Ba La, a spiritual woman from Xiangxi.

By chance, I added her WeChat account.

Overjoyed, with a trembling heart, I quietly entered keywords such as "Thanks for meeting" and "Like to appreciate" into the dialog box.

Since that day, I have become one of the thousands of people who observe her style in the circle of friends, and I have become a tiny one among her thousands of readers and fans.

Every time I learn more about her life story, my appreciation and envy for her deepens.

That feeling is so real.

In late April, I found that I really fell in love with this female writer.

She seems to have become my goddess, giving me magical energy that makes me eager to blend into her world and uncover the veil that fascinates me.

So, I read a lot of articles about her, but if they were not enough, I bought some of her published books (except for the first collection of essays "Jian Su", which was not available in the selected region). I also finished reading these books.

Only then did I truly feel the accumulation and charm of the goddess Bara’s words.

Suddenly I remembered what senior Huaizuo once said, "Sister Li Jing is working hard, I'm still far away, and I need to keep working hard." At that time, I actually didn't understand the meaning behind this sentence.

I just want to envy and yearn for her poetic life, which is what most people want.

As everyone knows, no one’s success comes overnight.

Such as the familiar words written by Bing Xin in "Stars and Spring Water": At this moment, in addition to feeling a sense of appreciation and admiration for Sister Jing, I also feel a sense of respect and distress.

I believe that life can only be like the first time we met.

But I firmly believe that there are always some people in life that you will never forget and always think: "The most beautiful ones are not just the first time we meet." ? 01 Those unforgettable study experiences Sister Jing grew up in Pu City, Xiangxi

The ancient town is a relatively isolated but pure place rich in green mountains and green waters. The natural beauty gave her the innate inspiration and source of motivation for her literary, painting, calligraphy and film creations.

However, as early as in junior high school, she reached the lowest point in her studies due to her poor grades in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. She suffered from low self-esteem and confusion, and even thought about dropping out of school.

Youth can't help but be covered by the fog in front of its original beautiful colors.

She was just like me from high school to now.

Facing science and engineering subjects with poor understanding and rejection all day long, I was extremely frustrated.

Suffering from the torment of studying every day, I am afraid of being forced to bear the impression label "you are terrible", like a long-lasting shadow, covering myself who is unwilling to fall.

Fortunately, Sister Jing has a scholarly home. She has been influenced by it since she was a child and has developed good habits of reading and writing.

It is true that in her most rebellious stage, she had teachers who encouraged and recognized her; on the road of growth, she had enlightened parents who respected and cared for her; and later, in her love and marriage, she also had a soul mate who supported and loved her.

But the most important thing is that she understands what she resists in her heart and what she truly loves, and then she works hard and strives for it.

I thought of a movie I watched many years ago, "Storm on the Road to Harvard," and when the classic lines reappeared, I thought deeply: It doesn't matter that she was poor at math, physics, and chemistry in junior high school. At least she loves books like her life and is extremely sensitive to words; it doesn't matter if she has difficulty in science in high school.

, at least she was obsessed with painting, and picked up the brush again to embark on the path of studying as an art student.

In order to take the college entrance examination, she worked extra hard and studied painting desperately, not daring to relax for a minute.

Hiding in the studio every night, the darkness accompanies him; dragging his tired body out of the studio, what is always waiting at the school gate is the familiar old bicycle and the tall and thin figure of his father.

When she was in college, she majored in art and design. In addition to completing professional courses carefully, she devoted almost all her remaining time to literature, even staying up late to type until a few hours in the morning.

She also wanted to lie in bed and play with her mobile phone, watch TV shows and go shopping every day, and live a comfortable life, but she was reluctant to waste any of her time doing things that didn't make much sense.

In those four years, what accompanied her wild growth was still Xiao Chang's late night after the day.

A quiet night, a peaceful heart.

This is how the postgraduate entrance examination should be.

The perseverance in the process, the pain and tiredness, bitterness and pressure behind perseverance, I believe that people who have not experienced it personally cannot really understand it.

Sister Jing often tells herself: She has been studying abroad for many years, and the night has given her the deepest companionship, witnessing her silent efforts and every sour tear she shed.

Fortunately, after shedding tears, she saw a clearer world; after working hard, she found a more shining life.

Here, the girl, who was naturally timid and had low self-esteem, held in her heart a tenacity that refused to admit defeat, and was gradually tempered by life to become more courageous, determined and calm.

As she wrote in the book: “Only by enduring hardship and climbing upward in the direction of light with the determination not to admit defeat, will it be possible to change the state of life.
