As the years go by, the
number of year-end cards delivered decreases. Is it because of the Internet? I
put them by the window and look at it whenever I look out the window. I feel
sorry because I only receive them without sending a card.
When the end of the year
draws near, not only cards, but also one or two of my friends always send
religious books, urging me to go the church carefully. "I'm sorry you
didn't believe God even though you got everything. You'll go to heaven if you
got salvation." It's a lot better than ‘If you don't go to church, you'll
go to hell.’
It was the last day of the
year a long time ago. After graduating from college, I met two of my best
friends who had been wandering around without finding a suitable job. We bumped
the wine glass under the candlelight and murmured.
A friend opened her mouth
first. She said something like a Hollywood-style movie scene, 'I want to
welcome my husband who lives in a picturesque house and comes back from work
gracefully in a dress. She set up a newlywed house in a mansion as she wished.
Another friend said, 'I want
to go to Paris, France, and live freely.' Jeon Hye-rin, who studied in Germany
in the '50s when the scars of the war were not healed, was an idol of women.
The friend, who adored Jeon Hye-rin, eventually went to Paris to study and
marry a Dutch man and leads a wonderful life, engross in her work in Amsterdam.
Well, I don't have the
appearance the men will fall in love me than the two friends, so I said,
"I want to be a teacher without asking for a big wish." I wanted to
study abroad, but I didn't dare spit out of my mouth because leaving Korea was
like a dream, but I came all the way to New York after being a teacher.
I have felt many times in my
life that 'if I try to hope and try, I can at least be similar.' It's not a
family motto, but I should not just wish for it, and leave it to heaven after
doing everything I can.
