One after another ....

         “ And don’t fight anymore ~~~” he said .



         That's how my father passed away .
         Mother and family members sing and make noise , I couldn't cry at all .

         I stood there blankly for a while and then trudged out of the hospital .

         At that time, it was already deep into the night .


         I walked around downtown Andong in a daze for a while .

         Then I suddenly thought that I would never again see my father coughin

         g like that at the breakfast table ... … … .
         From then on, something hot started flowing down , whether it was tears

         or snot .

         If only I had money , if only I had the cost of surgery , I would not have
         died in vain like this , but I resented poverty .

         I feel resentful of that damn money .

         Even though I was young, it was a moment when I deeply felt the pain of
         poverty .

         Seeing my father helplessly forced to die due to lack of money ... .



         My father's death made me think about many things .
         What a blessing it is to be healthy ,

         What a blessing it is to be alive and have your own thoughts .

         Why do people live ? How else should I live ?....
         How on earth can one live well , live like a human being , and live withou

         t regrets ?



         I started having so many questions .
         What is poverty ? What is ignorance ?

         Why do people say 'study , study !' Do you do it ?

         From then on, everything was full of questions for me .


         remembered the words my father said when he was dying and the words                          QR

         he said when he looked at me while he was alive .
