Sadly, the end of my year was shaken by a most terrible news, the son of one my best friends died. He was 29 years old. His parents got a call when he had not shown up to work and had not answered any calls. They found him dead in his apartment, laying on the sofa as if asleep with his laptop still on. They still don’t know what he died of, they are getting the results of an autopsy soon. Reading my friend’s message shook me to the core. I have cried and prayed and tried to sleep. How can this be? Why? These are the moments that are so hard in life. When someone like my friend who is the kindest soul finds the life of his life dead like that.

Of course this made me think of Ilwoo.

In the end we are all but a breath for the universe. These beings that live a very short period of time and have no idea where, or how, or when we will cease to be in this human form. But what we do know is that because our lives are so short, we must make the most of it. We must live life as if it was our last day… that is how Ilwoo lives. He does all he his best… everyday. So one lives a life that is free of regret. And like Henry David Thoreau wrote, “…and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life…”

I will leave you with another quote from Henry. May you live a life that is full! May all your dreams come true! GOD bless you!

Our life is frittered away by detail… simplify, simplify.

Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.

All good things are wild, and free.

The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.

It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.

Aim above morality. Be not simply good, be good for something.

That government is best which governs least.

In wildness is the preservation of the world.

Goodness is the only investment that never fails.

This cheered me up a bit this morning… it’s Ilwoo cheering! 🙂 I like to think it’s a sign… for a Woonderful year 13! Drama 13!! Fan 13…!!! 🙂
