毛丹青：在日本生活40年，才懂什麼是生活Living in Japan for 40 years, I realized what is life

毛丹青，在日本生活將近40年的作家、終身教授。剛到日本時，一次被青蛙吵醒的經歷讓他發現了世界的美好之處，而他與日本文學的基點也是由此開始。作爲老師，他講課幾乎是即興，堅持用手繪傳遞自己的感受給學生，因爲在他看來，教育不是產品。
毛丹青在日本這三十年，第一個10年賣魚，第二個10年做日語作家，第三個10年做教授。順勢而爲，言行一致是他的人生關鍵詞。

Mao Danqing is a writer and lifelong professor who has lived in Japan for nearly 40 years. When he first arrived in Japan, an experience of being woken up by a frog made him realize the beauty of the world, and this is how his relationship with Japanese literature began. As a teacher, he almost improvised in his lectures, insisting on conveying his feelings to students with hand-drawings, because in his view, education is not a product.
Mao Danqing in Japan these thirty years, the first 10 years selling fish, the second 10 years as a Japanese writer, the third 10 years as a professor. The key words in his life are “act according to the trend” and “be consistent in what you say”.
