  • No wasted efforts

    No wasted efforts

    I was utterly disappointed. I did not have enough time to go through everything I had prepared. I put a lot of effort into some things that were not even used. I didn’t want to go home and sulk about it. So I came home, put my heavy bag down and headed out to the…

  • Coffee break

    Coffee break

    I have a cup of coffee each morning. Usually just one. Probably about a double-shot espresso equivalent. But I quit for the last two weeks. Well, almost. I defaulted maybe two times during that period. I do this occasionally to reset. Over time, I had become desensitised to caffeine, so I no longer got as…

  • Hi, don’t look at me

    Hi, don’t look at me

    I suppose I could speak more clearly and less ambiguously. But doing the opposite of that is more than just a speaking habit to me. It’s my way of life, almost. Deflecting. Avoiding. Hiding. I guess I am still a little scared of being known. That’s okay, I suppose.

  • neurosis and writing

    neurosis and writing

    I’m reading some of the things I wrote when I was heartbroken and distressed, and oh my, why are they so much better than the things I write when I’m feeling okay? It’s funny and ironic. I have been going to the art gallery a lot these days. I’ve been enjoying it so much lately…

  • I hesitate

    I hesitate

    I don’t know if I am wanting to do this for myself or for you. I so want it to be for you, but I just cannot be sure that my motivations aren’t selfish or futile. I can’t trust myself. So I hesitate. I go back and forth. So many times, I set out to…

    All of a Sudden (2026)

    공식 줄거리 Two scholars exchange letters about chance and risk. As the philosopher falls ill, their academic correspondence evolves into intimate discussions about mortality and a deeper connection forms between them. 느낀점 Mari와 Marie-lou 는 아예 다른 두 사람 같으나 사실은 같은 사람이었던 것 같다. 그들의 이름이 말해 주듯. Marie-lou는 Mari의 연극을 보고 깊은 감명을…

  • On a night I planned to flee

    On a night I planned to flee

    No matter how hard I try, no matter how much I fool myself, I seem to be incapable of coming to You without being a mercenary.  Even when I grasp the wonderful Truth and see its blinding and magnificent glory, it flees me like a lightning and eludes me. Even as I realise that You…

  • I can’t. But you can

    I can’t. But you can

    I can’t do any of those things unless You help me. I am absolutely wretched and afflicted. But I do also know this. I do know that You will help me. So when it matters the most, I will be able to see it through. So I can, and I will, even though everything I…

  • Change of mind?

    Change of mind?

    I read something I wrote last year. It went something like ‘ I can rely on my desires to motivate me’. I don’t think I have that view anymore. My desires are transient. And sometimes not even ‘good’, in that it might not be the best option for me. I shall rely on something reliable.…

  • 당신의 양들

    당신의 양들

    나는 여름만 되면 당신을 떠나고 싶다고 하소연하는 글이나 쓰고 있지만, 당신은 참 신실하십니다. 당신의 사랑하는 성도들이 제게 힘이 됩니다. 그들이 주님을 사랑해서, 주님을 알아서, 취하는 태도와 행동들이 저에게 용기를 줍니다. 나를 놓지 마소서. 내가 당신을 더 깊게 알게하시고, 당신에게 더 가까이 있게 하소서.
