Meaning of Everyday Life 일상의 의미
Life is precious. I think that the most important thing in the life is daily life. Yes, we are happy when we feel happy in our daily life. If you can not find meaning in everyday life, it means that you need to change your way of living.
Everyday life seems not meaningful to everybody. When I went to Seoul Station as usual, I saw homeless people near Seoul Station. There were people leaning on the entrance to the subway station.
Homeless people in front of Seoul Station were not homeless from the beginning. Simply put, the fierce struggle of life has brought them here.
For someone, a daily life is just a burden.
Daily life is a blessing to someone, but for someone it is a curse. I went to the funeral for my senior colleagues' daughter yesterday. She died of gastric cancer at a young age of 30. How bad was life for her? She had donated her body for before her death, but the donation was unable because she was a cancer patient.
On my way back from her funeral, I thought I should live every day worthwhile.
In the morning, I strolled in front of the house and photographed people's pictures.
One lady who enjoys the sunshine of the morning
People having a brunch in the bakery
People on the street
A man who enjoys fishing in the lake
A farmer who works in a kitchen garden.
People enjoy their lives in various ways. But the life I am living at this moment seems to be the most precious moment in our life.
일상의 의미
삶은 소중하다. 그중에서 가장 소중한 것은 일상의 삶이다. 그렇다 우리는 일상에서 행복을 느낀다. 일상의 삶에서 의미를 찾지 못한다면 그것은 의미가 없는 삶일 것이다.
모든 사람에게 일상의 삶이 의미가 있는 것이 아니다. 어떤 사람에게 일상의 삶은 부담스러울 뿐이다. 여느 때 처럼 서울역에 갔다. 서울역 근처에는 노숙자들이 있었다. 대낮인데도 자리를 깔고 누워 있었다. 지하철 역입구에서 술잔을 기울이고 있는 사람도 있었다. 그들은 일상의 삶은 어떤 의미일까?
그들의 무표정한 얼굴에는 자신이 일상을 힘겨워하는 표정이 담겨져 있었다.
서울역 앞의 노숙자들도 처음부터 노숙자가 아니었다. 알지 못하는 삶의 질곡이 그들을 여기까지 데려다 놓았을 뿐이다.
누구에게 하루는 축복이고 누구에게 하루는 저주이다. 마침 어제 선배의 딸 장례식에 다녀왔다. 30살의 젊은 나이에 위암으로 사망했다. 그녀에게 삶이란 얼마나 아까운 것이었을까? 사망하기전에 시신을 기증했으나 암환자라서 기증을 하지 못했다고 한다. 얼마나 하고 싶은 것이 많았을까? 그녀는 꿈이 많았다고 한다. 그녀의 장례식장에서 돌아오는 길에 내가 과연 잘 살고 있는가 하는 생각을 했다. 그리고 하루하루를 보람있게 살아야 되겠다고 생각했다.
아침에 집앞에서 산책하면서 사람들의 모습을 사진에 담았다.
오전의 따스한 햇살을 즐기는 사람
빵집에서 구수하고 맛있는 냄새를 즐기면서 하루를 시작하는 사람
식당에서 자신들의 일을 마치고 모여서 식사를 하는 사람들
사람은 여러가지 모습으로 삶을 살아간다. 그러나 어떤 모습으로 어떤 삶을 살던 지금 이순간의 일상이 가장 소중한것 같다.
Learning to be content with what you have in life is the key to happiness. There is no point worrying about the things we have no power over such as what has happened in the past or what may happen in the future. This moment is all that truly exists
yes, you are right.
You see so many contrasts around you, @slowwalker - the traditional ways of life vs. the modern, old vs. new, wealthy people vs. the poor...and you ask the eternal question - What is the meaning of life?
Your answer can be summed up in a Zen phrase: Live in the moment - find something of value in everyday life.
A simple but poignant post, @slowwalker
Lol
I like to say it this way...
"I want to be present, in the present."
I desire to be alive, awake and aware, or be Present.
This minute, the Present.
These moments are priceless, lets not waste even one!!
Thank you for another awesome post!!
i still following you
thanks for sharing :)
yes yes,... i know what you mean. i wonder who of them has chosen this kind of life and who just got hooked by life´s circumstances. You start thinking about your own consistency in life
Very true photono, i love your comment
sad but great post!
Thank you for sharing :)
Interesting post.
Sometimes I wonder who are the ones who are really trapped. The people who are stuck in the loop of having to work the majority of their life to pay for the materialistic things they crave for...
Or the ones who don't have a job, a home, maybe even a family and have to survive. Yet are free from this loop...?
it's sad... but sadder is when you changed an upvote from $90 to $1, I had a bad day yesterday.
Well it seems this is mindset nowadays. People caring only about money and others poor people don't have food to eat or a little house to sleep in...
Our countries should do something
Same. It felt really bad. But whatever. I like the content a lot so don't really care about votes lol.
Oh sorry @jwolf
It seemed that I made a mistake.
How can I continue to vote $90 to the comment
Set your votepower on max.
I think it's better for all of us to receive $1 than only 5 to receive 90$
lol i was just joking :D Money is not really important.
Haahahaa
I understand man! Don't worries. $1 is still huge and I appreciate you! It was just that shock you know, it was unbelievable!
lol
Agreed! I calculated that @SlowWalker can make 3500 Upvotes at $1 each. It's so amazing. I appreciate you man!
