Dear sister Strawberry Icecream,
the following is the translation of your words that appear in the afterwords of your masterpiece, I don't know whether you mean it literally or figuratively.
I have been writing poetry for 16 years. From 2006 to 2022, I have been writing without stopping. In order to be a poet, I wrote thousands of poems, but the future is dark. For no other reason,just because my parents are poor people with mental illness, and I still have only a junior high school diploma. In this world of heroes are made based on success , I am destined to be abandoned as waste and garbage.
This "English translation of 300 Chinese classical love poems" was started on October 6, 2021 and published until it was officially completed on January 11, 2022. I spent 97 days translating this collection of ancient Chinese poems. I translated most of the ancient poems in the evening, even in the middle of the night. Because of the environment I live in was very bad, and my family is extremely poor, I can only afford to eat plain food every day. I only go out once a month and buy some necessities consumer goods. The snacks you can have are coke, beer, oranges, instant noodles and spicy strips, but they are luxury goods to me. I can only eat a few times a month at most. At the same time, I'm 30 years old and under huge psychological pressure and life pressure that made me unable to breathe. My state of mind had already collapsed and I did the translation almost at the cost of my life.
