About
Inside us live feelings that cannot be taken over. They struggle to maintain their lives among fear, greed, hurt and weakness. Emotions that cannot be occupied and the road you walk on are itchy even if you walk, so efforts are needed to find emotions that shine on their own in life. It starts with a friendly look at one's own life, not just seeing today's appearance as the present landscape, but creating my present day with the accumulation of past experiences and emotions.
What I was curious about tomorrow's weather would be the hope that today's planned events will be kept. When I remember my childhood, there was a day before I went on a picnic when I prayed for tomorrow's sunny day with my hands together. Weather forecasts have a certain high probability, but they don't tell you the exact weather you want. As an adult, I learned that tomorrow's weather can be a landscape of my mind, not a physical one such as snow or rain, and my feelings and life experiences in the middle of that landscape became more meaningful to me. As the images of joy and sadness, love and hate, indolence and diligence intersect countless times, I knew that today's weather was set in the present and today's day.
Today, my weather is sparkling. Efforts to create and protect the landscape of life that I hope for, or someone's warm heart to me, gain light. The way the day ends is different. There are days when it ends peacefully and happily, and from a small daily life that is not revealed to a cumbersome or fearful end. Sometimes, it holds the weight that is hard to bear, and it leads to another day without fail, reading and feeling the hearts of precious people. It is up to me to leave the experiences and emotions in it as a sparkle. The traces of reading between the lines of everyday life with a delicate mind sparkle enough today.
The shiny beads lead to one as if they were separate, forming an image and filling the background. Shoes, bags, hats, and ties that are often worn in everyday life begin with beads. A colorful image is completed by creating a line in one point, and each point shines because it contains countless stories. It is meaningful not to show the cross-sectional landscape of life, but to look into the emotions of life contained in the image. Images filled on the canvas do not distinguish between men and women. This stems from my inner visual attitude, and neckties are not pronouns for men and high heels for women. Ties do not mean success and high heels do not represent perfection on the outside. I hope you can hear the story of the mother and the mother's expressions that protect the moment of emotion by greeting and seeing off, and the deep-seated heart that strives for something, about the diligent steps to find a meaningful path and the unexpected kindness in the discipline that exists in the real space where you cannot live alone. The story will be well deserved to shine today with the echo of a part of life. I hope you will enter the warm, sparkling image and greet the shining day by looking into the grains in it. Today's weather is sparkling, where all experiences and emotions that vary in time and space come together and exist as the background of life.
