內文摘錄
彷彿從揹起相機的那一刻起，就註定了「豐和日麗」一路的使命。
從夢想談到了愛情，從愛情談到了人生。
然後，發現每一張照片，每一段文字，其實不只是療癒別人，更是對自己最誠實的告白。
我也在這告白之中，更了解自己生命的輪廓，和在這輪廓最深處的地方，看見了自己的軟弱與堅強。
原來，生命大都時候，我們都只是選擇我們想看見的風景，而去避開心裡最闇黑的角落，以為從此身心就能相安。
但我卻常在生命裡來去的人身上，按下了自己生命陰影的快門，然後反覆咀嚼這份對自己的陌生。也漸漸的才明白了人生，而「歲月」則成了代價。
假如這些領悟，可以成為不只是紙上的匆匆一瞥，而是成長生命的甘露。
那麼，我們之間的告白，將會是能繼續前進最有力量的勇氣。

From the moment I took up my camera, this series of photo-slash-poetry books became an eventual outcome. It serves as the keeper of my thoughts, extending from dreams to love, and from love to life. It’s only then I realized that my photographs and poems do far more than tending to the vulnerable hearts of others; they are also my internal dialogues.
Through these naked self-talks, I gained a better perspective of my own life, and saw my own vulnerabilities and strengths within its depths.
I came to an understanding that, more often than not, we see only what we choose to see; both consciously and unconsciously, we avoid facing the skeletons in our closets, exercising “out of sight, out of mind” to a fault. Yet, ironically, I frequently take snapshots of my own deliberate negligence in the life of others, and then sleep on the eerie unfamiliarity with myself in which they reflected. From them, I learned life’s valuable lessons, at the cost of irretrievable time.
My only wish is for these life lessons of mine to be more than mindless scribbles to others, but something that nurtures and nourishes life. If that comes to pass, these intimate conversations between us and ourselves may very well be the greatest strength and ally on our life’s journeys.
