hi.. richard!!!!
i'm so happy.. that you liked the book that i sent you..
actually.. i thought it would be so good if you could read
korean..
because the poems are telling about the monk's experience about
being a
monk since he was a boy.. he says that he missed his mother so much
whenever he had difficulties in following buddhism..
the little monks are so pure and naive.. that's why they can know the
TRUTH
of the world better than adults even though they don't know what they
are
praying for exactly.. i think..
and.. i also want to share the feeling about the book with you..
i really miss the days when we talked about what we think of the
paintings
that we saw in the galleries.. these days.. i barely go to galleries..
because i'm quite busy but.. the real reason is.. i can't find someone
that
i share my thoughts and feelings about the paintings and books..
i think we had similiar taste about many things.. didn't we?

yesterday.. i got your mail..
BEAUTIFUL PAINTINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!
i really liked the comparison of the two orange crush..
actually when i saw it at first.. i laughed.. ^^
so funny... what a clever sarcasm!!
and the seahorse one was also fabulous...

richard... i gotta go...
someone is waiting to meet me...
i'll write you after i go back home...
talk to you soon~~~~
