Birthdays
Tonight, as I was eating dinner and talking (but mostly listening) to my cousin, I decided to get better at remembering and celebrating birthdays.
If you email me (cankerbane@gmail.com) or somehow (Twitter, Flickr, text, etc.) send me your birthday date and a mailing address, I’ll mail you a hand-written, hand-made card (and maybe some stickers).

I was talking to Alice on Facebook about Xanga, and I went back to my old ones (cankerbane and happy_no0dle_boy) to see what they looked like and how I sounded. Basically, I was this moody, depressed, apathetic, and filled-with-teenage-angst high school student. As I browsed through posts, I came across one that linked to my old Blogspot.

나의 信仰詩 (2)
촛 불 -조 영 근-
어둠으로 사람들이 허우적이며
지척을 가랄 수 없는
칠흑과 같은 캄캄한 방에서 나는
나를 불태워 방안을 밝힌다면
더할 것이 없으리라 생각을 하고
한 자루의 초가 되기로 했다
심지에 불을 지폈다
불꽃으로 방안은 어둠이 순식간에 가시고
모두를 훤하게 밝히어
앞을 가려 볼 수 있게 되었다
초를 태워 밝힌 기쁨이 방안에 차 넘쳤다
날이 밝았다
나는 타다 남은 토막 촛자루에
고드름처럼 처져 내린
쓸 모 없는 촛농이 되어 흘러 굳었다
타다 흘러내린 촛농은 이제
쓰레기통으로 가야 하리라
그러나 그렇다하여 나는 서럽지 않다
어둠을 밝힌 촛불이 되어
나는 초의 할 일을 다 했지 않은가
초가 할 일은 다 마쳤으니 말이다
(2005년 8월 31일, LA...

2011
This past year, 2010, is an interesting one, but ultimately it is a year marked by its ending. On December 23, the day before Christmas Eve, my granduncle passed away. He had cancer, and had been battling it with courage and composure for months. Despite all things though, his condition had been steadily getting worse over time. When he passed away on Thursday morning at 2:00 am, it almost felt...
