夏秋交季，独自背上厚厚的行囊，抛开市中的繁杂，乘上西去的中巴，一路直行，奔向朝思暮想的大山生处，那是我梦开始的地方、是我神心的家。素日里，虽身处闹市之中，但我心内想的、性中牵的、言语叙的、笔底泻的却都是她。她令我神往，使我魂牵！她让我的魂有所住，神有所安。那是我的精神家园。
　　最喜乘车掠影，感受那车速与时空的交相辉映。由于角度与速度的不同，窗外天地间的一切景物便觉与止观时迥然不同。每次，无论我去往哪里，只要是在途中，乘车上，车窗外自然中的曼妙，总是尽收眼底，铭刻神中。每当此时，我的心、我的神、我的思想，都会游离我的身躯，跑出窗外与她们共舞、互融！所以，对我来说，途中不倦，因为我总是在这种最美的享受中到达目的地。
　　圣洁的白云在湛蓝的空中仙子般纤纤移步向我招手，高耸雄伟的青山庄严地静待我的驾临，清澈的山泉按捺不住我到访的喜悦穿过深谷、绕过羊肠、一路欢歌敛笑的奔向我的面前，花草林木婀娜摇曳的身姿对我施礼相迎。我欣笑示意，你们好吗？我来了，我要与你们住些时日呢！
　　山脚下，择一处绝佳农户，门前有小桥溪水，对面有群峰环抱，登至楼顶更可远眺云烟染翠，亦可赏满树红柿，耳畔泉水叮咚，房后鸡鸣犬吠，无须酒茶令人醉，好一处人间仙境！

　　Notes in the Mountains
　　At the beautiful end of summer as well as the beginning of autumn, alone with heavy bags on the back, I decided to forget all the boring affairs in the city and took the midibus heading for the west. All the way straight ahead, towards the great mountains that I yearn day and night. That's the start of my dreams and the home of my soul. At ordinary times I live in the busy urban areas, however, what I think, what I miss, what I describe and what I paint is all about her. She fascinates me and pacifies my soul. That's my spiritual home.
　　I love catching every glimpse of the scenery along the way on the bus, feeling the interaction of the speed of bus and the space-time. Due to the difference of the perspective and the speed, it appears a totally different look of all that stands there outside the window from what it's like when seen still. Everytime wherever I'm going, as long as I'm on the road or the bus, the beautiful scenery in the nature outside the window has always been impressed on my mind, so that my heart, my soul and my thoughts would often run away from my body to blend into and dance with them. Therefore, for me I won't feel tired because it's all enjoyment that leads me to the destination.
　　Holy white clouds leisurely moved and waved to me like a fairy in the blue sky. Towering and majestic mountains solemnly waited for my visit. Clear mountain spring couldn't hold back her joy for my visit, crossed valleys and along the trails, singing and laughing arrived in front of me. I smiled and said hello to them:"How are you? Here I come, for staying some time with you!"
　　Then I chose a nice farmhouse at the foot of the mountain, in front of which there is a running creek under the bridge, also across stretch the endless mountains. Standing on the roof of the house even you can look far into the distance at the green smoke and clouds, as well as you can enjoy those trees full of red tomatoes. Spring makes a sound of 'ding-dong' beside your ears, roosters crow and dogs bark behind the house. It is intoxicating without wine or tea. What a fairy land!
