回複：浩然正氣 & 心有淒淒焉

Thank you very much for bringing up such a in-depth conversation! I agree with you but with a slight reservation: man can be & need to be sentimental, at least sometimes. Those of who claim they are “iron man” and never have tears are flat-out telling lies to themselves.

Delighted to know that you savored the meaning of the photo. Yet, I can not imagine a girl (I’m assuming) with 浩然正氣 and 洪七公的打狗棒 in hand could easily get hit by a photo. ---Just kidding. Well, I have actually sensed your sensibility sentimentality indicated in the end of your poem. Like everyone else, you must have an attachment with your past, your childhood to be specific.

Yeah, the photo is mine that I took a short while ago. I have more photos published at WXC 世界風情 page. Check it out if you’re interested
