Hi dear one,
This is not a junk mail, nor good news announcement. It’s more like a rambling or personal world news RSS feed. this email won’t ask you to action on anything, so you can scan though.. but i know you do care you and me…it’s kind of group love letter… sort of…
so i’m sure you will read my broken english about my home nation, korea.
I am in grief of distance from a justice, brief, and politics this week. Today was a national ceremony for one of the greatest leader in Korea, Roh Moo hyun (formal president) funeral. As I put my first home close to my heart, even though it’s small, corrupted, old-fashioned and emotionally difficult, I couldn’t help myself not to participate into this collective action of sorrow.

It’s difficult to be political when I am not in politics, it’s somebody else’s story when I don’t have a right to vote where I live. governing a nation is something different from being a mother in the house… but I can not help thinking how important to have a good, reliable leader in the world. i come from a culture where we don’t step on teacher‘s shadow. the power of the respect comes from what they believe and how they practice their own. it’s not about the authority nor hierarchical power you fed into a psychological domination. so, i am deeply disappointed by his decision of death.
you are my GREAT teachers in this culture.
you showed your way to practice your life, your research and your politics.
it is very important to me, how you live, what you believe…
I am also your friend. I will be always there for you when you fail or when you are in a any trouble. so be in my reach…
life is a good thing.
living is not easy. living good is not easy.
but i want to try to live, and be political without shame.
you taught to me to do so, and so i will do for my people.
good morning
and good night
my friends.
