Preface Blue Eyes in“paradise”

I have never lived in Heaven.

On a summer afternoon,I decided to quit a superior job and a comfortable life and go abroad alone.Someone made up a story that I would go marry an American guy,so all my friends believed it was an American congressman that made me so desperately determined.Well,frankly,I had met a senior U.S.Representative and we became good friends.This handsome gentleman was a sentimental lover and I was obsessed so much,as his love,social status and wealth were all so attractive.We did speak different languages with distinctive cultural backgrounds,but still,I tried to love and be loved.We exchanged love letters translated by my secretary,and affections were born from these letters.I started to yearn for a strange and distant country the United States of America.When I got to Honolulu,a sort of grand atmosphere and sound released my dream.Love,at that moment,was as thin as a wisp of nostalgia.I was a bit hesitated,but that could not prevent my crying in the heart:I was to get married!

But who had expected that I was to marry a wonderful land in the paradise?

The long road for Heaven was tough,as if time did not have wings and steps were not accompanied by shadows.With the feeling of a half journalist and a professional writer,I was wandering around in the paradise.I would love to speak with an academic tone,but when I expressed my feelings,I was actually a sentimental poet.

This paradise had never been hard and cold.I met a group of great Americans on the way to it.I got to know their feelings about life,trying to touch upon the roots of Americans,their society and culture,sensibility and sex,religion and family,wealth and love...All this was appealing to me and tempting me to go further,just like rocks and sea breeze touching the land gradually.I was an untrained singer hearing echoes of my singing in an open land.When I was stepping closer and facing the country,I was pretty sure that I was in love indeed.It may not be important that whether I was close to the real paradise,as I said in a poem:“When I exchanged time with Heaven,I belonged to the genuine paradise.”
