Short Stories about ‘miracle’ or ‘salvation’,.... and My Prayer




Short Stories about ‘miracle’ or ‘salvation’,.... Brief Meditation and My Prayer


* The life achieved in the middle of the hope to have disconnected, or in the hope less than 1% - this, Christianity calls ‘miracle’ or ‘salvation.’

If this theological term or idea is considered in relation to my life, I would like to say myself that how I began to survive through religious experience in dying sorrowfully in 2 years after taking rat poison is indeed a miracle, and how I passed college entrance qualification exam in 70 days with this awkward body and how I entered Seonggyungwan University Landscape Department by studying for about 110 days is a miracle too.

Even now if I only keep reading or writing as long as an hour, I have my eyes hurt, blurred, reddish and as far as swollen. Especially the computer screen makes my eyes swollen even before in 30 minutes, whereas I am writing even this book.

Not only for others but also for me, a miracle is not far away.
I would say, the past uncommon life I had, the tiring process I have to live struggling, or the present life I am trying vehemently, these kind of life itself is a ‘miraculous life’ that is attained in a ‘state beyond the line of common sense.’

Up until here, there were so many times when I would find myself troubled, bored, irritated, spiteful or crazily-shouting if I look at mere a day, mere a month or mere a year. Without stopping there, living itself was so skeptical that there were also many times that I wanted to give up my entire life itself.

But looking at 30 years later from now at this point of 45, I am only thankful that I have continued to persist in my life even in the middle of many-sided living and experiences, and that I am living on carrying that out.
