come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
For the sake of humanity,
reach out.
Ask for a chat, for a meal, or for a coffee.
Have the courage ask for a companionship.
Have courage to break out of your own thorny shell,
and have a courage to be vulnerable.
Why?
Because it’s not always gloom and doom,
and the future cannot be it either.
You can handle it.
Believe it and venture outside.

courage to lose
yet continue on
courage to be alone
when the fight goes on
courage to see the other side
and remain patient with what’s going on.

perhaps now is the time.
I feel pain in the head
and the heart feels rather numb.
I no longer feel the excitement
when I win a match;
only vainglory remains.
but this is a murky ground.
your friends, colleagues, and mentors
holds on to you.
to say no to all of that
and to take a leap
takes a fiery courage
to walk a blazing trail.
let us hold our head high.
let us prevail.

죽을 각오로 싸울 용기도 필요하지만
약함을 포옹할 줄 용기도 필요하다.
죽음을 무릅쓰고 악바리로 살기도 하지만
지혜롭게 살기 위해 더 유하게 살기도 한다.
한가지만이 옳은게 아닌
여러가지 방법이 있을지도 모른다.

May you have strength,
For a morning dew may be but a single drop,
It is purest of all,
And has seen the wisdom of the world all by itself.
May you have control of self,
For torrents of rain shall stop, and trashing wind shall become a calm breeze,
It is quintessential of all,
And has drawn the essence of everlasting changes in life.
May have radiating happiness,
For this darkness shall pass, and a gloriously shining golden sun shall dawn on the earth to redeem the world,
It is a righteous all along,
And meet with new light face to face, it will shine ever brighter than before.
