Now as a best-selling author of picture books, Jimmy continues to assert control over his life. He works only on projects that inspire him and refuses to let fame limit his freedom. However, as sure as Jimmy is of his own path, he is sensitive that for others, freedom presents its own problems. In a world of infinite possibilities, choice can seem overwhelming.

　　
　　身为当今的畅销漫画作家，几米依然坚持要掌握自己的人生。他只接能够启发他灵感的工作，并且不让名气限制他的自由。然而，尽管几米拥有自己的人生道路，他仍敏锐地感受到，对其他人来说，自由也有自由的问题。在这个充满无限可能的世界里，选择似乎也会令人难以承受。

　　This idea is represented in Jimmy‘s books,somewhere the small scale of his characters expresses the powerlessness they feel when facing choices. The message contained in the brief explanations that accompany Jimmy‘s drawings, however, is hopeful: Though the world may make us feel small, we must be brave. Everything will be all right for us—as it is for the"small people"in Jimmy‘s books—if we make appropriate choices.
　　
　　这样的观点反映在几米的作品中，就是一小部分人物面临选择时的无力感中。然而，搭配图画的简短图解所隐含的讯息则充满了希望：虽然这个世界或许会令我们感到自己渺小，但我们还是要勇敢面对。每件事到头来都能水到渠成——就像几米书中的“小人物”一般——如果我们做出了正确的选择。
　　
　　Despite his newfound fame and wealth, Jimmy prefers working quietly at home with his wife and daughter. He spends his mornings drawing, and his afternoons doing chi-gong. To Jimmy, the freedom to live his life as he chooses means much more than money and attention ever could.
　　
　　尽管几米近来名利双收，但他还是喜欢静静呆在家里创作，陪伴妻女。他早上画画，下午练气功。对几米来说，能够过着自己想要的生活，远比金钱和名声要重要得多。
