When you see this picture, which word comes in your mind? I guess it maybe 'peace' or 'peaceful'. The place may be the our ideal one in where we want to take a rest. All people on earth wish and want the world's peace. But the hope was broken someday by something- this could be because of human being or nature disaster. As I concern it, human is primary reason of the peace's destruction. Don't you think it's ironic that someone who is eager to peace brakes down peace? Why? I'm sure it is from human's lots of greed, arrogance, and lack of love's ability to people. Those things have messed the beautiful Earth up, even people themselves. Fortunately, when we face the ugly superficial situations, we have sense that's problem which someone should fix them up.

How about your inner peace? When you encounter yourself in having own pain, torture, and suffering, do you have sense it must be fixed up? We usually call the ability to self-control; it is one of the hard things we cannot do well. Sometimes, when something problem happens on us, we could notice the cause of trouble is from ourselves: greed, arrogance, lack of love. Don't let these things go. Don't let it dominates you. It spoils you in the long run. We should admit we do not have the ability naturally so need practice and practice for your inner peace. Only after we know the truth does our inner peace can stay on you, and you can control yourself.

Ode to Patbingsu

Your transparent skin color,

Your innocent,

melt and beat my heart,

dye me your breath

A match made in heaven,

tangerine, watermelon and adzuki bean,

always miss them, you.

Your friendliness, attractiveness

arrests other friends fruits, even ice cream

How can I hold you.

only live from hand to mouth,

short and sharp life

makes me cry.

when you and me unite into one,

you alive in me.

My precious object

I'd never received the pretty doll before- this 'beautiful doll spring' name is 'MiMi'.

MiMi is meaningful for me because my finance gave me it when he bravely confessed his love ,reading the letter he prepared for a month ago to me. At that time, in spring of last year, I hesitated because I felt him as a close brother. In God's bless, we have become the beings who can't be parted from each other.

Sadly, I had to stay in Korea for six months so I couldn't see him. During the time, I eased my sadness holding MiMi and listened her peaceful&beautiful melody with winding its spring-her beautiful voice really smooth my sorrow!

To tell the truth, he said to me this; he bought this three years ago and confessed his love someone he liked with it. However, it couldn't do well, so he determined to keep it until 'his half' would appear in front of him someday-I was so moved and felt his pure soul.

MiMi is always smiling and has beautiful voice, so whenever I see and hear her, she makes me a pure little girl and feel I am in heaven. She stands for "Everlasting love" and She is the only friend who I lived with me now.

I really feel like trying to keep it forever, so let my children be told their parents love story in the near future. :)
