思念的長河
要是沒有繽紛的顏色，
我們的人生就不會這樣美麗。
寫盡生命的千山萬水，寫進我們的心底。
這個世界的可愛與可貴，三毛最懂。
三毛逝世30週年紀念版
世上許多事情，
只要甘心，吃了多少苦頭都不會受到傷害，
它們反而成就了一種可貴的印記和生命的痕跡，
成長中不可少的經歷與磨練。
不論日子怎麼好壞，人如何來去，時光流過的每片風景，三毛都記得，更化成文字去向更遠的地方。
她的追憶從未停下，因為曾到過的那片沙漠太美麗，因為愛人送的百合太芬芳，因為雲門充滿生命力的舞蹈太動人，因為經歷過的悲歡離合都太難忘。她的關懷有各種模樣，是一幢名為「三毛的家」的避風港，是一百多個學生縫製組合的百福被，是一封封為重病讀者打氣的信，是擔心瀕死的小斑鳩而三日食不下嚥……是這些感同身受，讓她走了又停，頻頻回望。
三毛更懂得聚散有時，每道照亮自己的光芒，她都十分珍視。對人生前輩與恩師、知音與摯友，三毛將敬重寫進那些字字句句，既是感謝相知，更是深深相惜。
正是這個世界需要一個愛它、懂它的人，三毛對萬物的真情真意因此有了永恆的歸屬。她的愛是條長長的河，流過歲月，流經生命的高低，永不乾涸……

About the author
Sanmao
35 books139 followersSanmao (Chinese: 三毛; March 26, 1943 – January 4, 1991) was a Taiwanese writer and translator. Her works range from autobiographical writing, travel writing, and reflective novels, to translations of Spanish-language comic strips. She studied philosophy and taught German before becoming a career writer.
Born as Chen Mao-ping (陳懋平), her pen name was adopted from the main character of Zhang Leping's most famous work, Sanmao. In English, she was also known as Echo or Echo Chan, the first name she used in Latin script, after the eponymous Greek nymph.
Sanmao was born in Chongqing to Chen Siqing, a lawyer, and Miao Jinlan. She had an older sister, Chen Tianxin. Her parents were devout Christians. Her family was from Zhejiang. After the Second Sino-Japanese War, the family moved to Nanjing. When she was six, her family moved to Taiwan because of the Communist takeover of mainland China. She disliked the lack of freedom in Taiwan's educational system, in which strict restrictions were placed on students.
As a child, she developed an early interest in literature and was exposed to famous Chinese writers, such as Lu Xun, Ba Jin, Bing Xin, Lao She, and Yu Dafu. She read works such as The Count of Monte Cristo, Don Quixote, and Gone with the Wind. She was particularly interested in Dream of the Red Chamber and read it as a Grade 5 student during class. When asked what she wanted to become when she was older, she responded that she wanted to marry a great artist, specifically Pablo Picasso.
Due to her preoccupation with reading, Sanmao's grades suffered in middle school, particularly in mathematics. After a distressing incident when a teacher drew black circles around her eyes and humiliated her in front of her classmates, Sanmao stopped attending school. Her father taught her English and classical literature at home and hired tutors to teach her piano and painting.
In 1962, at age 19, Sanmao published her first essay. Sanmao studied philosophy at the Chinese Culture University in Taiwan, with the goal of "[finding] the solution to problems in life." There, she dated a fellow student; however, becoming "disillusioned with romance," she moved to Madrid, Spain at age 20 and began studying at the University of Madrid.
Sanmao later moved to Germany, where she intensively studied the German language, sometimes up to 16 hours per day. Within nine months, she earned a qualification to teach German and began studying ceramics.
At age 26, Sanmao returned to Taiwan. She was engaged to a teacher from Germany, but he died from a heart attack before they could marry. Sanmao returned to Madrid and began teaching English at a primary school.
In 1976 she published the autobiographical The Stories of the Sahara, which was on her experiences living in the Sahara together with her Spanish husband Jose, who she first met in Madrid and later married in 1973 while living together in the then Spanish-controlled Western Sahara. Part travelog and part memoir, it was an account of life and love in the desert and established Sanmao as an autobiographical writer with a unique voice and perspective. Following the book's immense success in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China, her early writings were collected into a book, published under the title Gone With the Rainy Season. She continued to write, and her experiences in the Sahara and the Canary Islands were published in several more books.
In 1979 Jose drowned while diving. In 1980 she returned to Taiwan, and in November 1981, she traveled to Central and South America on commission from Taiwanese publishers. These experiences were recorded in subsequent writings. From 1981 to 1984, she taught and lectured at her alma mater, Chinese Culture University, in Taiwan. After this point, she decided to dedicate herself fully to writing.
Sanmao's books deal mainly with her own experiences studying and living abroad. They were extremely well received not only in Taiwan, but also in China, and they remain
