Life Story

A remembered life

Chang Wei was a market stall owner from Chengdu, Sichuan. People remember how he kept a pencil behind one ear and wrote measurements on scrap paper, and how ordinary errands became easier when he was nearby. At home there was usually a jar of sharpened pencils, and family members still mention the porcelain teacup kept near the back porch bench. Chang Wei did not make a performance of kindness; he simply made room for people, one practical gesture at a time.

Stopped by before work. Seeing the photo brought back the way a jar of sharpened pencils made the whole room feel lived in.

This page got the quiet things right. Chang never needed much fuss, just people showing up when it mattered.

Left flowers after dinner. The part about kept a pencil behind one ear and wrote measurements on scrap paper is exactly how I remember Chang.

Jenna Davis 2026-03-10 10:30:00

Still hear Chang Wei saying, "write it down before you trust your memory." That sentence has been in my head all morning.

I found the porcelain teacup while sorting the back porch bench. It felt right to put that detail here for Chang Wei.
