Visually Impaired Student's Work Selected for Tainan High School Literary Collection

The most important thing in writing is to find what you truly want to express. Good writing is not just a pile of techniques, but transforming the truest feelings of your heart into words, thereby resonating with readers.

Su Ting-wei, who faces challenges due to his vision impairment, dedicated extra time and effort to his studies and writing. He believes that genuine expression and emotional resonance are key to good writing, rather than mere technical skill. His writing journey, though difficult, has led to self-discovery and growth.

Other students also shared their experiences. Guo You-xin, whose four articles were selected, found confidence in writing with the encouragement of teachers Chen Wan-ling and Cheng Hao-wen. Writing served as an outlet for stress and a way to organize thoughts, helping her find balance. Xu Yun, with four selected pieces including "Dialogue with Narcissism," views writing as a mental release, transforming observations and thoughts into arguments and clarifying her understanding of the world.

Writing has become an important way to vent emotions and organize thoughts, helping me find balance and strength.

Even students who initially disliked writing, like first-year student Guan Long, discovered its joys through their high school Chinese teachers. He learned to observe life and contemplate issues, making writing a way to express himself and explore the world, rather than just an academic task.

“

Writing is a release of the soul. Through words, daily observations and thoughts can be transformed into concrete arguments, and in the process of writing, I can re-sort my understanding and views of the world.

Notably, alumnus Wu Rong-bin, chairman of Hengyao Enterprise, has sponsored the "Chinese Writing Award" for two consecutive years. Students whose works are selected for the collection receive scholarships and certificates, encouraging them to pursue writing, develop their expression skills, and cultivate critical thinking.

When I learned to observe life and think about issues, writing was no longer just a classroom assignment or a test requirement, but became an important way to express myself and explore the world.
