With the passage of time, bad memories and wrongdoings gradually fade away. Hatred toward someone can become blurred, and the heart may grow more inclined toward forgiveness. Time heals our pain, softening the hatred and resentment within us. This is likely because harboring such negative emotions for too long only leads to our own deterioration. However, time is not a cure-all. Even if a wound ..

Superman, Iron Man, Spider-Man, and Korea's Hong Gil-dong.  These are all superheroes with powers beyond those of ordinary people. Although they don't exist in reality, we are captivated by the movies and novels they appear in. We cheer as they display incredible superhuman abilities to defeat equally powerful villains. Sometimes, we even wish we had such superhuman powers. However, I am glad th..

When I was around 27, I went to a tarot reader in Sinchon with a female friend, just for fun. The reading was horrifying. The reader told me that my life had been going downhill since I was 20. Given that I had felt something was wrong since entering university, I was taken aback by her words. I then asked when this downhill slide would end, and she said it would be at 33. At the time, I just la..

There is a planned A and an unplanned B. From A's perspective, B lives without any plans. It seems like B just goes with the flow, dealing with things impulsively without preparing for the future. B, on the other hand, finds A's life frustrating, feeling that A wastes time meticulously planning for a future that may never unfold as intended. B believes that as long as you live in the moment, eve..

A misunderstanding has occurred. I had no such intention, but the other person got the wrong idea. It's been several months since the misunderstanding arose, and I only recently became aware of it. I tried to resolve the misunderstanding, but by then, the other person had already closed their heart. No matter how much I explain the facts, it seems difficult to open that closed door. However, I w..

It's been a month since I started my blog without telling anyone.  First, I want to congratulate myself for consistently posting for a whole month.  As I approach fifty, various anxieties have emerged, prompting me to reflect on my life.  I wanted to live differently from my past, and to do so, I needed to reassess my values.  This blog was started with that intention.  By writing down my though..

Sometimes, I'm not sure if I'm overthinking things or if it's just how I feel. In such moments, I try to write things down. However, when I actually sit down to write, I often find myself staring at the blinking cursor on my computer, unsure of what to write.So, I pick up a pen and start writing in a notebook. After a considerable amount of time, I look back and see nothing but illegible drawing..

The 2024 Paris Olympics are in full swing. A few days ago, South Korea won gold medals in both the men's and women's team archery events. The women's team achieved a remarkable 10th consecutive victory, while the men's team secured their third consecutive gold. While we naturally expect to win gold in archery, the actual skill difference between our athletes and those from other countries seems ..

Do truth and justice always triumph over falsehood and injustice? I'm not sure. Whether I look into the past through history books or examine the present through the news, I can't be certain that truth and justice always win. Could it be that we are being deceived into believing in the righteousness of truth and justice so that the majority of us follow these ideals while a minority benefits fro..

I used to hate the rain, especially the monsoon season. When I was a child living in a semi-basement house, the house would flood every monsoon season. The drainage system was poor at that time, so it was particularly severe. Although it wasn't as bad as the scenes in the movie "Parasite," I often found myself mopping up water with towels. Back then, perhaps because I was young, I accepted it as..
