I’ve been trying to find something to write down for too many years. I finally found it now—or maybe not. Basically, I think I should be good at writing. I have a lot of thoughts, and I am good at thinking. So what deprived the paper of my thoughts? In my mind, for more than a decade, writing has been a terrifyingly difficult thing for me. I have a lot of thoughts, but I can’t say them aloud because they might be wrong. My first experience of writing a diary, and probably of writing in general, was forced on me by my grandmother. She had not even told me how to write a diary. I had just played a video game that day, and I thought it was very interesting, so I wrote about what I had done in my diary. A harsh criticism immediately reached my ears: “How dare you! Why did you write that? That is ridiculous…” How horrible that must have been for a kid who had just written his first piece of writing. I think that maybe, after that, every word I wrote seemed to be evaluated by others and could possibly be wrong, making writing increasingly terrifying. As a result, my writing got worse and worse throughout my primary school years. My grandma bought an essay-writing book for me and read me an essay from the book every day. Students in my primary school were also asked to tell a story in turn. On my day, I couldn’t remember any story, but I could remember an essay from the book. So I recited that essay. Everyone in the classroom including the teacher said it was a good story, but it was not even a story. In the past few months, I have tried to write again. The results have been totally acceptable to me. But they are not sentences directly from my mind; they are scenes that exist objectively. Eventually, I have to express my own thoughts aloud, powerfully, somehow, without relying on any object—thoughts that can easily be criticized.

这么多年来,我一直在试图寻找一些可以写下来的东西。我现在终于找到了——或者说,也许并没有。

从本质上讲,我认为我本应该擅长写作。我有许多想法,而且我善于思考。那么,究竟是什么剥夺了纸张承载我思想的可能?

在我的脑海里,十多年来,写作对我来说一直是一件极其可怕、无比艰难的事。我有很多想法,但我不能大声说出来,因为它们可能是错的。

我第一次写日记的经历,大概也是我人生中第一次写作,是被我奶奶强迫的。她甚至没有告诉我日记该怎么写。那天我刚玩了一款电子游戏,觉得非常有趣,于是就把我那天做的事情写在了日记里。紧接着,一句严厉的斥责就传到了我的耳朵里:“你怎么敢!为什么要写那种东西?简直荒谬至极……”

对于一个刚刚写下自己一生中第一篇文字的孩子来说,那是多么可怕的一件事啊。

我想,也许就是从那时起,我写下的每一个字似乎都在被他人审视,随时都可能被判定为“错”,这让写作变得越来越令人恐惧。

结果,在整个小学时代,我的写作变得越来越糟。奶奶给我买了一本作文书,每天给我读上面的一篇文章。小学时,学生们还被要求轮流讲故事。轮到我那天,我记不住任何故事,但我记得作文书里的一篇文章。于是,我把那篇文章背了出来。

教室里的每个人,包括老师,都说这是一个好故事,但它甚至算不上是一个故事。

在过去的几个月里,我试着重新开始写作。结果对我来说完全是可以接受的。但它们并不是直接从我脑海中流淌出的句子,而是客观存在的场景。

最终,我必须大声地、有力地、以某种方式表达出我自己的想法,不依赖任何客体——那些轻易就会招致批评的想法。
