    I have wanted to die enough times in my life to understand the idea that wanting to die is not a foolish thing... I don't mean to prop up the idea of wanting an exit, but for me, not to imagine it as a foolish means that I am, by default, tasked with taking it seriously. I can't life as I once did, telling people that I was doing fine and desperately wanting them to wade through the language and see that I was in pain.

    Whatever thought grips the mind at the time of death is the one which will propel it and decide for it the nature of its future birth. Thus if one wants to attain god after death, one has to think of him steadfastly... This is not as simple as it sounds, for at the time of death the mind automatically flies to the thought of an object (i.e. money, love) which has possessed it during its sojourn in the world. Thus one must think of god constantly.

    What could it be? What kind of power could have brought out such a smile from Eunhyung’s heart that had become the wreckage? Sprouts keep shooting from the ground, even if you step on them again and again. I wonder if that sort of power is the source of our strength. Just like that... if you pushed through that moment’s crisis like that... would you be here with us right now Eunhyung?
