Everyone’s Journey

Life is like trials

Raise your head.
Straighten your shoulders.

My dad said that once.
Back when I wanted to give up.

I held on.
And somehow—it was okay.

Cry as much as you want.
Hold on.
Tomorrow will be tomorrow’s sun.

Even if the wind shakes you,
even if the rain soaks you—
Don’t you have to live to pay it back?

Cry more, young life.
It’s okay to lose.
What if you fall?

If you live—if you keep living—
you’ll remember this day
while laughing,
telling the story like it happened to someone else.

I’ll feel like I’m alone.
I know that heart.
The one who trusted people,
and lost people.

How could you be the only one?

Cry as much as you want.
Hold on.
Tomorrow will be tomorrow’s sun.

Even if the world hits you in the back of the head,
pour it all into a glass of soju.
Crash and spill to your heart’s content.

If you live—
that’s life.

Keep it real.
