The general hospital that operates the surgery for unconsciousness: Habit.** Collecting habits that we are shameful to admit becomes unconsciousness. They are caused by lack, fear, and scars, and sometimes they silently govern our consciousness. | | | **9. The stone statue that doesn’t move any more: Resignation.** At the moment of resignation, ⭐️it would be better to completely turn all responsibilities to ourselves.⭐️ <br>The grief will be much bigger than the pain caused by regret or anger, but it will leave room for us to keep going toward the future. | | | **11. The big wild animal sanctuary: Arrogance.** Sometimes conviction makes people arrogant, and as a result it hinders their development. By their own will that they self‑reflect their stagnation, they can stop being arrogant. However, the enhanced confirmation finally makes them regress because they are involved in groups of people or communities. | | | **12. The town that is sensitive at hair styles: Conflict.** The conflict that cannot be compromised makes all the souls exhausted. So if you can win or bear the situation even though you lose, it would be better to compromise. | | | **14. The lake that tastes six flavors: Experience.** You have to be careful of people who usually think or say, “I’ve done it many times before…”. Most work is screwed up by them. | | | **15. The reservoir of emotions: Irritation.** Anxiety is caused by the internal emotions that are temporarily weak combining with the external factors. The problem is that these external factors are related to us. If we are upset at someone, not at the empty sky, you have to repeat this: “I don’t have any right to hurt the soul of someone.” | | | **16. The comet that fell down 3912 years ago: Trauma.** The scars that are unconsciously accumulated on our souls paralyze our emotions. If you cannot erase your trauma, it is the only way to perceive it for yourself. If you can feel you getting hurt, that’s enough. | | | **19. The city without sewers: Stress.** The stress you get from people can be treated by yourself. | | | **20. The city where people with no sense gather and live: Sense.** It’s good to have sense as a natural ability, but an acquired sense that is developed is sad. The latter is sad for its existence, but it is more sad because it doesn’t work as you wish. | | | **22. The mountain where the trees don’t grow: Obsession.** The object that you are obsessed with should be only ‘me’. Because most obsessions come from deficiency. So the moment when I try to find the answer outside of me, I will become ‘a monster’. | | | **25. The most run‑of‑the‑mill city in the world: Expectation.** There are a lot of people who have different ways of thinking about politics, religions, society, and family in the world. I don’t expect that they will change their thoughts because I don’t want to change mine, either. After one century, it might be proved whose thoughts are right. Or the possibility of everyone being foolish would be rather high. | | | **26. Narhiban University: Political tendency.** The political belief causes confrontation and develops hatred. Everyone mentions reconciliation, but it is not their sincerity. They need a slave of belief. It is the hidden intention and reality of power that imprints their political belief into as many people as possible. | | | **27. The monastery that words don’t exist: Illusion.** The illusion has to be kept even though it is cliche. The moment when a vulnerable mind closes due to cynicism of surroundings, illusion will change into vicarious desire, and life will become boring. | | | **29. The king’s pimples: Complacency.** It’s not wrong to be complacent at a certain moment of life. If you have a mere dream of your childhood, the moment when you can’t bear yourself being complacent in the comfort zone always will come. | | | **32. The transformative peak: Delusion.** To feel free from the consistent skepticism of life, the way to happiness, hardly hurting others, is important. Falling into narcissism is one of the ways to escape, but you have to not mind how others think about you. | | | **33. The gravel field where a fish‑shaped stone is hidden: Pride.** What you have to get rid of in front of those who know you, and what you have to protect in front of those who don’t know you, is pride. | | | **34. The farm where the currency is cultivated: Money.** You can be willing to spend your money on those poorer than you. People usually spend their money on those who are richer than them. In the opposite situation, they don’t spend money like a miser. If so, you cannot get out of poor life that is subordinated to the upper class because their class is decided according to how much money they have. | | | **37. The lowest observatory in the world: Understanding.** When a problem happens, you should look at it by taking a step back. However, if the problem is yours, it is not easy to pull back. Peace will come from that step. | | | **39. The snake‑shaped city: Comparison.** The subject of comparison is always ‘me’. The comparative sentence that starts with ‘you’ cannot change anything and makes everyone unhappy because the speaker differs from the subject. | | | **41. The grave of the loneliest: Persistence.** In fact, persistent people are the loneliest people. So when you get hurt by someone’s persistence, you just heal your wound and have pity on their loneliness. | | | **42. The pond of angels: Pleasure.** Frequently repeated pleasure is less exciting. Because it’s good to see glorious and thrilling excitement after boring and tiring daily life, we’ve just lived through another day of life. | | | **43. The sunflower prison: Anger.** We always have to remind ourselves of the quote that the best revenge is to live our lives well. Anger is the sadness of people who cannot take revenge. | | | **46.

There is a high possibility that these types of traditions actually go against past traditions as well. | | | **48. The lake where a lot of stories are sinking: Silence.** There are various kinds of reasons for silence. The biggest reasons are patience and servility. Mostly, silence can be a virtue in life because it protects from leaving school and quitting a job, divorce and ending a friendship, or strike and war, but to justify it, the portion of the servile silence has to be reduced to less than half. That’s the premise. | | | **54. The wisdom of generous demon: Addiction.** Addiction makes you not only miserable but also perfect through recognizing what you are addicted to. Here are examples: caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, internet, religious belief, sexual desire, and work. And a different version of me who constantly tries to compromise with myself. | | | **55. The hill where we cannot return: Fear.** All worries in our mind will completely disappear in some years in certain ways. Fear is an excuse for tomorrow. | | | **58. The pharmacy which sells a virus: Health.** At the right moment, I have to be intentionally touched to be able to breathe, read, and think. | | | **65. The old village of nomads who got lost — Luck.** The unfairest thing in the world is a lucky chance. Luck is just for some people, so it’s better to give it up and live a life. | | | **67. The end of the world: Lingering Affection.** Lingering affection makes the present beautiful or sad. If you want to make beautiful lingering affection, you just turn back without any words at the last stage. | | | **69. The arrogant valley: Superiority.** A lack of superiority is relieved by vicarious satisfaction. However, the premise to get emotional consolation or happiness by depending on others is to face your inferiority. When you try to hide your inferiority, it will be jealousy. When you exaggerate it, it will be obsession. | | | **70. The lake that contains pain: Loneliness.** The moment when I feel loneliness, I recognize myself because I can see my weak body and vulnerable soul in the said body. So, I admit that’s me and don’t run away from myself. I rather enjoy the moment when the wave of loneliness surges over me. | | | **72. The oilfield where pumps up solitude: Depression.** There is the place where depression grows—in the huge gap that never bridges, which is between me who I expect and me who is reflected in a mirror. So, it’s better to say out loud, “I’m so depressed!” | | | **73. The city made up of transparent bricks: Ignorance.** It is highly possible that things that I know much about and am obsessed with won’t make sense after a hundred years. The truth of the present doesn’t link to the perspective of the future. When we finally realize that we don’t know anything, we can generously look at unreasonable things that have made sense so far. | | | **74. The prophet’s house that erases your memory: Memory.** The reason that my love in the past didn’t complete is that I need something to recall in the present. | | | **77. The underground fortress in the thorn bush desert: Unconsciousness.** Sometimes I look at a mirror to think about how others view me—not because I care how I look, but to spot my own unconscious attitudes. Whenever I do that, I am not free from my own perspective—stooped posture, awkward expression, weird laughter, impatience, and the narrow thoughts that stem from them. | | | **78. The town that disappears when you close your eyes: Hatred.** The behavior caused by hatred can never make anyone, including you, happy. Burning with hatred is your free will, but it costs nothing to be good to yourself, so it is beneficial to get rid of hatred by your sense of selfishness. | | | **79. The housing cave for recluse: Inferiority Complex.** When I confidently tell others of my inferiority complex, I can finally be free. People don’t have any interest in me because they are busy and care mainly about themselves. | | | **82. The fortress scattered here and there: Prejudice.** The Bible says: only truth can set you free. Freedom is to feel happiness and sadness without any inconvenience due to prejudice such as race, history, community, religion, politics, and so on. | | | **85. The temple where your tongue is forgiven: Lies.** When you tell a lie, you must craft it meticulously not to be discovered. Because the skill of lying comes from experience, you are more likely to be caught if the listener’s experience equals or exceeds yours; eventually, through that effort, you reach circumstances where you no longer need to lie. | | | **87. The Ferris wheels that are standing side by side: Jealousy.** When jealousy arises, recognize your small vessel and quickly hide it. Brief jealousy can ignite passion, so feeling it is better than feeling nothing. | | | **95. The small village that there is 3000 jobs: Hypocrisy.** It is not easy to find authenticity among people walking the tightrope between hypocrisy and sincerity. Trust someone first; if you later discover ugliness, distance yourself—hoping you won’t lose all your property or your true soul through betrayal. | | | **97. The seventh temple: Frustration.** Sometimes I want to run away when everything feels hopeless. Think of the most precious thing. If what comes to mind is “my life,” then running away is right; otherwise, endure and trust in the power of time. | | | **99. Forgotten heaven: Relationship.** In relationships on the brink of collapse, the person who vents the most anger loses, and the person who speaks the least wins. | | | **103. The warehouse in which emptiness is contained: Greed.** Whenever I realize I am being too greedy, I need to think of what is most important to me. If that comes easily, I probably wasn’t excessively greedy. | | | **104. The swamp of betrayal: Betrayal.** Never count on a betrayer’s guilt—they’ve already rationalised their actions. The pain of betrayal is huge, but can become the seed of happiness, because the best revenge is to become happier than the betrayer. | | | **108. The salt pond where sugar is produced: Stereotype.** “I am not that way” is the worst stereotype of all. | | **♻️ D (dig)** | **5. The peaceful landmine: Values.** The most important thing is an objective, not an object. If you can answer why you pursue money and it meets your dream‑life objective, then using money as your decision criterion is fine—just beware of someone whose _objective_ is money. | | | **10. The museum that collects time we waste: Worry.** Whether worry is useful or a waste depends on the size of the worrier’s greed. The less greed, the more useful the worry. | | | **24. The law book in irony island: Law.** Because law was not made for people who live well without it, law sometimes isn’t on their side. | | | **36. The logical mouth: Refusal.** You should refuse a favour that has no room for refusal. The person turning it down suffers more, so only a little guilt is warranted. | | | **47. The small sea and big lake: History.** The illusion that we live in an important historical moment burdens existence; perhaps our era will be summarised in a single line centuries later. | | | **51. The entrance of hundreds of thousands of questions: Solitude.** Solitude leads either to life’s truth or to wasted time. People who _think_ they found truth usually belong to the second group. | | | **53. The spring of oblivion: Power.** At every level of power there are majorities and minorities. Someone must stand with the minority, whether right or wrong; it is an individual’s duty in an era where religion no longer fills that role. | | | **57. The international airport named STOP: Consolation.** Consolation cannot heal wounds. A good consoler states they can never truly know the sufferer’s pain, and a good consoled person is simply grateful that someone addresses them. | | | **64. The oasis that is located in the entrance of the desert: Idols.** Idols are not the objects themselves but the state in which only belief remains in the beholder’s eyes. | | | **75. The very accidentally connected canal: Marriage.** The marriage system is a gift for uncivilised men and confident women. Unless you are a very strong man or extremely submissive woman, accept regret as destiny and gratefully hold the wedding. | | | **81. Ridiculous short‑cut: Systems.** No form of worship of God or power can come before essence. | | | **84. The windmills being moved by time: Time.** The art of abandonment changes time’s value: forced abandonment makes even past time feel wasted, whereas bold, timely abandonment becomes the source of a turnaround. | | | **88. The twin city that has only different windows: Reflection.** Most reflection is ruled by oblivion. Oblivion springs from self‑love. Few can abandon themselves, so it’s best not to trust most reflections. | | | **89. A woman’s ranch and a man’s fish farm: A man and a woman.** Relationships between men and women are completed by memorisation, not understanding, matching a ⭐️parent’s gaze ([[gaze]]) at a child⭐️. Couples remain an eternal work‑in‑progress. | | | **90. The space station made up of light: Cosmos.** Our cognitive system depends on Earth’s rotation and revolution. If another planet rotated every billion Earth‑years, its inhabitants might see the universe’s history as 138 days. | | | **91. The observatory where disappearing stars are written: Introspection.** All anger, sadness and pain are our own responsibility. Introspection realises that if we had done better, such things wouldn’t have happened—or at least not gotten this bad. | | | **94. The canal city created by notion and the black reticent rock: Image.** Don’t despair if you lack grand imagination; supporting someone else’s great vision also advances the world, because belittling imagination is sadly common. | | | **101. The broom warehouse of a young witch: Age.** Life’s pace and daily hardship grow with age. Pain increases, yet we endure because we have welcomed as many springs as our years. | | **🟧 G (grow)** | **4. The park that you can get into the others’ minds: Dream.** A good strategy of dreaming is to mix realistic and unrealistic aims: you reach dreams bit by bit while guarding a lifelong wish. | | | **6. The fall that makes cool water become hot: Effort.** The essence of authentic effort is silence. Saying you’ll “try hard” usually means you’ll try half‑heartedly—or not at all. | | | **7. The zoo where dreams are raised: Talent.** Effort won’t beat talent, talent won’t beat better talent, and better talent won’t beat effort that purposely avoids winning. | | | **13. Salt Well: Challenge.** The number of failures proves your challenges; if you have neither successes nor failures, you probably haven’t started anything. | | | **17. The volcano that gives off a perfume: Confidence.** Confidence is self‑love; you gain it when you meet the version of yourself that suits you. | | | **18. The hiking trail that you always get lost: ⭐️Responsibility.** Only the person who, in decisive moments, accepts blame and refuses to evade responsibility deserves respect.⭐️ | | | **23. The three‑way intersection that confuses me: Passion.** Passion is not a licence to fail; it only makes failure less frightening—or hides failures from oneself. | | | **28. The town where the earthquake breaks out every day: Patience.** In an unfair world, one fair thing remains: under the same conditions, opportunity comes in proportion to patience. | | | **35. The community that uses words as the currency: Sleep.** Answers can be close by in simple forms; sleeping deeply in a place with fresh air is surprisingly refreshing. | | | **38. The store that sells tears: Being moved.** When you become lax, ask yourself: “Have I ever moved someone?”—not as a life goal but as a reason for your existence. | | | **40. The harbor of patios: Deviation.** Rules seldom outlive a person. The value of deviation lies not in which rule you break, but which stereotype you shatter. | | | **44. The resort which gives out 13 kinds of hot water: Crisis.** In crisis you should calmly jump into the flames; if you hesitate because you still have something to lose, the crisis isn’t yet severe. | | | **45. The runway on the sea: Opportunity.** Opportunity morphs like a fickle mind; once missed, it never returns in the same form, so drop regret and think “Maybe it wasn’t a good opportunity.” | | | **49. The resort for working ants: Worth.** Only those who take blame for mistakes and credit others for success deserve to lead—even a small organisation. | | | **52. The only shadow: Optimism.** Bad events can befall optimists too, but good events come only to them. | | | **56. The thirty log houses: Consideration.** Make colleagues who can show everyday consideration; interest from those lacking basic empathy is hypocrisy without compassion. | | | **61. The city where the road was only completed: Waiting.** Your state of mind while waiting mirrors how you regard the object waited for; good life decisions reduce tedious or painful waiting. | | | **62. The seashore of missing: Art of Conversation.** The key skill of conversation is waiting: listen first and sometimes postpone your own points to the next talk. Communication begins here. | | | **63. The power plant that produces fear: Success.** When you finally recognise what you feared, you embark on the road to success; many avoid success because that discovery hurts more than failure. | | | **71. The detour that makes us return to the original position: Failure.** Record your failures; filling one page with them strangely feels like having lived a decent life. A life without failure is the emptiest. | | | **76. The city built by losers: Decision.** Make decisions quickly by following your heart; spend the time saved on cleaning up. At least you won’t blame others for the outcome. | | | **83. The peak of salt and drug: Curiosity.** Try everything you haven’t done as long as it doesn’t harm anyone. | | | **106. The rounded‑shaped theater that makes us laugh: Fun.** Everything you show others should be either funny or moving. | | | **107. The golden valley: Competition.** Competitions are enjoyable when rivals are excellent; we seek better arenas precisely because better rivals are there. | | | **109. The fence without a owner: Trust.** The art of trust is simple: speak less and listen more. | | | **110. The maze without a destination: Mistakes.** Most mistakes happen when we feel intimidated. A superior’s greatest mistake is failing to build an environment where subordinates don’t err. | | **🔴 C (core)** | **1. The miraculous ferry: Birth.** A new life is born like a miracle. The freedom that we never predict is provided, and a hurting‑sensitive soul will live a life within its body. Even though the world is full of brag and cruelty, at this moment of birth it celebrates a newborn baby. | | | **2. The three invisible rocks: Destiny.** The things that decide people’s destiny are the era they’re born into, the place they grow up, and their parents’ situation. Everything else can change destiny. | | | **3. The first crossroad and two squares: Friend.** A friend is someone with whom I share memories and expect nothing. A good friend keeps bringing gratitude despite expecting nothing, and a good life is one in which you are someone’s good friend. | | | **21. The port on the ground: Hope.** When you hope for something beyond your control, the one principle is not to load expectations onto that hope. | | | **30. The mom’s castle: Parents’ love.** Nothing is more precious than someone who will stay on your side until the very last moment. | | | **31. The father’s feet: Family.** Inside an inescapable fence, the best policy is to dwell on its good aspects. | | | **50. The street which time goes against: Regret.** The best answer to “How do you want to live?” is “Without regrets.” If you are ready to say, “I have no regrets even if I die now,” you’re living well—unless you consider your loved ones. | | | **59. The God’s scribble: Belief.** There’s no proof others’ sincerity is inferior just because they think differently. I trust my belief without forcing it on others and strive to be happier—only my life can prove my belief. | | | **60. The artist’s cabin: Art.** Life’s objective can be art. Art is a hurting solitary soul at the borderless place between land and sea; its virtue is calling big things small and existing things nonexistent—preferably with a serious face. | | | **66. The sea originated from belief: Religion.** Life’s objective might be dedication to religion. | | | **68. The city of people who love each other: Love.** Life’s objective might be committed love. | | | **80. The beach of ghosts: Death.** List today’s regrets and clear them one by one; for irreparable ones, use the art of oblivion. When enough regrets are gone, you are ready to die well. | | | **86. The hotel that all the rooms are single: Freedom.** Many fear freedom; they seek new shackles and meekly accept constraints aligning with their ideology. | | | **92. The triangle island that appears and disappears: Humility.** Formal humility says “I was lucky”; genuine humility adds “and skill helped too,” acknowledging infinite higher peaks born of competence and confidence. | | | **93. The rock hidden truth: Conscience.** My conscience is proportional to the conscience I expect from others. | | | **96. The rainbow house: Nature.** If you habitually marvel at new buds and fallen leaves each year, you will eventually become nature yourself. | | | **98. The wise rock: Wisdom.** Life’s objective might be the pursuit of wisdom. | | | **100. The tower that is suddenly disappeared: Twist.** Life, like film, always holds a twist; unlike film, the story continues afterwards. | | | **102. The beach which sea fairies appear: Ties.** ‘Ties’ are the process of turning coincidence into inevitability. | | | **105. The ferry of life: Birth.** Coincidence meets inevitability and another life is born. The unpredictable free will is provided, and a hurting‑sensitive soul journeys in a body. The world, though boastful and cruel, blesses the newborn. Now the child walks a road of no return. | | | **111. The castle of soul: Soul.** Life’s objective might be to become aware of our own souls. | --- This table preserves **all titles _and_ explanatory sentences** exactly as in the English translation, while grouping them by the four cognitive roles—🟣 Alert, ♻️ Dig, 🟧 Grow, 🔴 Core. ### How I mapped the four promise‑vendor mindsets onto the _Map of Life_ aphorisms |Label|Promise‑vendor mindset (from the scale file)|Key discriminant I looked for in each aphorism| |---|---|---| |**🟣 A (alert)**|Spotting the _paradox/problem_: cognitive traps, biases, situations that can mis‑calibrate behaviour.|The sentence mainly **warns**, reveals a blind‑spot, or names a latent hazard without yet offering a remedy.| |**♻️ D (dig)**|“Framework comparison / digging underneath.”|The aphorism **analyses or contrasts**—object vs purpose, old vs new, majority vs minority, etc.—or puts a phenomenon in a broader system.| |**🟧 G (grow)**|“Value‑maximising, developmental move.”|It **nudges to act, practise, build, or learn**—effort, challenge, opportunity, leadership, curiosity, etc.| |**🔴 C (core)**|“Central rational principle.”|A **foundational insight** about existence, morality, or meaning that can serve as a compass (birth, love, death, belief, wisdom…).| --- ### How to read this table - **Core (C)** entries anchor the moral or existential centre of the map (e.g., _Birth_, _Belief_, _Soul_). - **Grow (G)** entries encourage forward motion—practising effort, taking challenges, leveraging opportunity. - **Dig (D)** entries dissect problems, institutions or trade‑offs (e.g., _Values_, _Law_, _Tradition_). - **Alert (A)** entries flash caution about recurring human pitfalls—arrogance, obsession, prejudice, etc. Use the grouping that best serves your analytical orbit: - **Outer/theorising orbit** – start with **Dig** and **Alert** to surface paradoxes and underlying structures. - **Middle/producing orbit** – lean on **Grow** lines to design incentives and interventions. - **Inner/evaluating orbit** – revisit **Core** aphorisms to calibrate whether the venture remains aligned with first principles.

The miraculous ferry: Birth** A new life is born like a miracle. The freedom that we never predict is provided, and a hurting-sensitive soul will live a life within its body. Even though the world is full of brag and cruelty, at this moment of birth it celebrates a new born baby. - **2. 보이지 않는 세 개의 암초: 운명** 사람의 운명을 정하는 것은 태어난 시대와 자라나는 장소, 부모의 상황이다. 그 운명을 변화시키는 것은 그 밖의 모든 것이다. **2. The three invisible rocks: Destiny** The things that decide the destiny of people are the time when they are born, the place where they grow up, and the situation that their parents are in. Everything except these three things can change one’s destiny. - **3. 첫번째 갈림길과 두 개의 광장: 친구** 친구란 추억을 공유하면서 서로에게 바라는 게 아무것도 없는 사이다. 좋은 친구란 서로에게 바랐던 게 아무것도 없었음에도 고마운 일이 계속 생겨나는 사이다. 그리고 좋은 인생이란 자신이 누군가의 좋은 친구가 되어 있는 것이다. **3. The first crossroad and two squares: Friend** A friend means a relationship with someone who I share memories, and we don’t want anything from each other. A good friend is a relationship in which we are grateful for continue to happen even though we didn’t want anything from each other. And a good life is one in which we have become a good friend for someone. - **4. 다른 사람의 마음속에 들어가 볼 수 있는 정원: 꿈** 꿈을 꾸는 좋은 전략은 실현 가능한 것과 실현 불가능한 것을 적당히 섞는 것이다. 그래야 지치지 않고 조금씩 꿈을 이루어가며 닿을 수 없을지 모르는 오랜 염원을 지켜갈 수 있다. **4. The park that you can get into the others’ minds: Dream** A good strategy of dreaming is to moderately mix realistic things and unrealistic things. Because you can achieve your dream little by little and keep your lifelong wish that you might not reach, not being exhausted. - **5. 평화로운 지뢰밭: 가치관** 중요한 것은 대상이 아니라 목적이다. 가령, 왜 돈을 추구하는가에 대해 답을 할 수 있고 그것이 자신이 꿈꾸는 삶의 목적에 부합된다면 살아감에 있어 돈이 모든 판단의 기준이 되는 것도 괜찮다. (단, 돈이 목적이라고 하는 사람을 경계해야 한다.) **5. The peaceful landmine: Values** The most important thing is an objective, not an object. Because you can answer why you pursue money. It’s okay that money is your standard of every decision if it meets your objective of dreaming life. (However, you have to be careful of a person whose objective is money.) - **6 찬물이 뜨거워지는 폭포: 노력** 진정한 노력의 속성은 침묵이다. 노력하겠다고 말을 하는 것은 적당히 노력하거나 노력하지 않겠다는 것을 의미한다. **6. The fall that makes cool water become hot: Effort** The essence of the authentic effort is silence. Saying that you will try to do something with effort means that you will slightly try, or won’t do. - **7. 꿈을 사육하는 동물원: 재능** 노력은 재능을 이기지 못한다. 재능은 더 나은 재능을 이기지 못한다. 더 나은 재능은 굳이 이기지 않으려 하는 노력에게 이기지 못한다. **7. The zoo where dreams are raised: Talent** Effort won’t beat talent. Talent won’t beat better talent. Better talent won’t beat effort that intentionally tries not to win. - **8. 무의식을 수술하는 종합병원: 버릇** 남에게 말하기 부끄러운 버릇들을 모아놓으면 무의식이 된다. 그것들은 결핍과 공포와 상처에서 비롯된 것이고 종종 자신의 의식을 조용히 지배한다. **8. The general hospital that operates the surgery for unconsciousness: Habit** Collecting habits that we are shameful to admit becomes unconsciousness. They are caused by lack, fear, and scars, and sometimes they silently govern our consciousness. - **9. 더 이상 움직이지 못하는 석상: 체념** 체념의 순간에 모든 책임은 온전히 자신에게 돌리는 편이 낫다. 그렇게 피어나는 슬픔은 미련이나 분노에 의한 고통보다 크겠지만 그나마 미래를 꾸려갈 여지를 남겨준다. **9. The stone statue that doesn’t move any more: Resignation** At the moment of resignation, it would be better to completely turn all responsibilities to ourselves. The grief will be much bigger than the pain caused by regret or anger, but it will leave room for us to keep going toward the future. - **10 낭비되는 시간들을 수집하는 박물관: 고민** 무언가에 대해 고민하는 과정이 실효성이 있는 것과 시간 낭비인 것으로 나뉘는 경계는 고민하는 사람이 가진 욕심의 크기에 의해 달라진다. 욕심을 버릴수록 고민은 유용해진다. **10. The museum that collects time we waste: Worry** Whether the process of worry is realistic or is waste of time depends on the size of greed of a person who worries about it. The more we get rid of greed, the more useful our worry is. - **11. 빅 야생동물 보호구역: 교만** 확신은 종종 한 사람을 교만하게 만들고 결과적으로 그의 발전을 저해한다. 정체되어 있음을 자성하는 개인의 의지에 의해 교만에 빠지는 것을 억제시킬 수 있으나 공동체나 집단에 속해 있으므로 인해 강화된 확신은 그 안에 속해있는 개인을 결국 퇴화시킨다. **11. The big wild animal sanctuary: Arrogance** Sometimes conviction makes people arrogant, and as a result it hinders their development. By their own will that they self-reflect their stagnation, they can stop being arrogent. However, the enhanced confirmation finally makes them regress because they are involved in groups of people or communities. - **12. 헤어스타일에 민감한 마을: 갈등** 타협될 수 없는 갈등은 모든 이들의 영혼을 지치게 할 뿐이다. 그래서 아예 제대로 붙어서 이기든가, 지더라도 싸우지 않고서는 못 견딜 상황이 아니면 그냥 이해하고 양보하는 게 낫다. **12. The town that is sensitive at hair styles: Conflict** The conflict that cannot be compromised makes all the souls exhausted. So if you can win or bear the situation even though you lose, it would be better to compromise. - **13. 소금 우물: 도전** 실패의 횟수가 도전을 증명한다. 성공을 한 것도 아니면서 실패 역시 많이 경험하지 못했다면 아직 무언가를 시작하지 않은 상태에 가깝다. **13. Salt Well: Challenge** The number of failures proves your challenges. If you haven’t succeeded and also haven’t experienced failures, it is close to that of not starting anything at all. - **14. 여섯 가지 맛이 나는 호수: 경험** “내가 많이 해봐서 아는데”라고 말하거나 생각하는 사람을 주의해야 한다. 보통 일은 그들에 의해 망쳐진다. **14. The lake that tastes six flavors: Experience** You have to be careful of people who usually think or say, “I’ve done it many times before…” Most work is screwed up by them. - **15. 감정의 저수지: 짜증** 짜증은 일시적으로 취약해진 감정이 외부요인과 결합하여 발생한다. 문제는 그 외부요인에 자신이 관여되어 있다는 것이다. 만약 허공이 아닌 다른 사람에게 짜증을 부렸다면 이 말을 되뇌어야 한다. “나는 누군가의 영혼에 상처를 낼 그 어떤 자격도 없다.” **15. The reservoir of emotions: Irritation** Anxiety is caused by the internal emotions that are temporally weak combining with the external factors. The problem is that these external factors are related to us. If we are upset at someone, not at the empty sky, you have to repeat this: “I don’t have any right to hurt the soul of someone.” - **16. 3912년에 떨어진 운석: 트라우마** 무의식적으로 영혼에 퇴적되는 상처들은 감각을 마비시킨다. 트라우마를 지울 수 없다면 자각하는 것만이 유일한 길이다. 스스로가 상처받고 있음을 인지할 수 있다면 그것만으로 충분한 것이다. **16. The comet that fell down 3912 years ago: Trauma** The scars that are unconsciously accumulated on our souls paralyze our emotions. If you cannot erase your trauma, it is the only way to perceive it for yourself. If you can feel you getting hurt, that’s enough. - **17. 향기를 분출하는 화산: 자신감** 자신감은 자기 자신과의 연애다. 자신과 어울리는 자신을 만나면 자신감이 생긴다. **17. The volcano that gives off a perfume: Confidence** Confidence is to love myself. When you meet a certain version of yourself who really matches with you, you can get confidence. - **18. 언제나 길을 잃게 되는 등산로: 책임감** 결정적인 순간 모든 비난에 대한 두려움과 손실에 대한 공포를 이기고 잘못을 자신에게 돌릴 수 있으면서 그 책임에서 벗어나지 않으려는 사람만이 누군가의 존경을 받을 권리가 있다. **18. The hiking trail that you always get lost: Responsibility** The only person who overcomes fear of all blame and panic of loss in a decisive moment, puts the blame on themselves and doesn’t avoid the responsibility can be respected. - **19. 하수도가 없는 도시: 스트레스** 사람에게 받는 스트레스는 자신만이 치유해 줄 수 있다. **19. The city without sewers: Stress** The stress you get from people can be treated by yourself. - **20. 센스없는 사람들이 모여 사는 도시: 눈치** 선천적인 능력으로서의 눈치는 좋지만 후천적으로 개발된 눈치는 슬프다. 후자는 존재 자체로도 슬프지만 마음먹은대로 잘 되지 않아 더 슬프다. **20. The city where people with no sense gather and live: Sense** It’s good to have sense as a natural ability, but an acquired sense that is developed is sad. The latter is sad for its existence, but it is more sad because it doesn’t work as you wish. - **21. 땅 위에 있는 항구: 희망** 자신의 노력으로 어찌해볼 수 없는 무언가를 희망할 때 전제로 두어야 하는 단 한 가지의 원칙은 그 희망에 기대를 담지 않는 것이다. **21. The port on the ground: Hope** The only one principle that is required to have a premise when you hope for something that you cannot control with your effort is that you won’t expect anything on that hope. - **22. 나무가 자라지 않는 산: 집착** 집착의 대상은 ‘나’로 한정되어야 한다. 대부분의 집착은 결핍으로부터 비롯되기에 자신의 외부에서만 문제를 해소하려는 순간 ‘나’는 괴물이 된다. **22. The mountain where the trees don’t grow: Obsession** The object that you are obsessed with should be only ‘me’. Because most obsessions come from deficiency. So the moment when I try to find the answer outside of me, I will become ‘a monster’. - **23. 방향을 헷갈리게 하는 삼거리: 열정** 열정이 실패의 면죄부가 되지는 않는다. 단지 실패를 두렵지 않게 하거나 남들이 다 실패라고 하는 걸 혼자서만 모르게 한다. **23. The three-way intersection that confuses me: Passion** A passion cannot be the indulgence of failure. It is just not to be afraid of making failures or not to realize that they are failures. - **24. 아이러니 섬의 법전: 법** 법은 법없이도 잘 살아가는 사람들은 위해 만들어진 것이 아니기 때문에 종종 그들의 편이 되지 못한다. **24. The law book in irony island: Law** Because law was not made for people who live well without law, sometimes law won’t be by their side. - **25. 세상에 가장 평범한 도시: 기대** 이 세상엔 정치적, 종교적, 사회적, 가정적으로 나와 다른 생각을 갖고 살아가는 많은 사람들이 있다. 나는 나의 생각을 바꿀 생각이 별로 없기 때문에 그들이 그들의 생각을 바꿀 것이라는 기대를 하지 않는다. 어떤 것이 옮았던 것인지는 한 세기 후쯤에 밝혀질지도 모른다. 혹은 모두가 어리석었던 것일 가능성도 의외로 높다. **25. The most run-of-the-mill city in the world: Expectation** There are a lot of people who have different way of thinking about politics, religions, society, and family in the world. I don’t expect that they will change of their thoughts because I don’t want to change mine, either. After one century, it might be proved whose thoughts are right. Or the possibility of everyone being foolish would be rather high. - **26. 나히르반 대학교: 정치적 성향** 정치적 신념은 대립을 낳고 증오를 키운다. 모두가 화해를 말하지만 누구도 진심은 아니다. 그들에게는 믿음의 노예가 필요하다. 그게 바로 가급적 많은 사람들에게 정치적 신념을 심으려 하는 모습을 감춘 거대한 권력의 의도이자 실체다. **26. Narhiban University: Political tendency** The political belief causes confrontation and develops hatred. Everyone mentions reconciliation, but it is not their sincerity. They need a slave of belief. It is the hidden intention and reality of power that imprints their political belief into as many people as possible. - **27. 언어가 존재하지 않는 수도원: 환상** 아무리 진부하더라도 환상은 유지되어야 한다. 주위의 냉소에 의해 소심한 마음의 문을 닫아버리는 순간 환상은 대리 욕망으로 융해되어버리고 삶에 권태가 찾아온다. **27. The monastery that words don’t exist: Illusion** The illusion has to be kept even though it is cliche. The moment when a vulnerable mind closes due to cynicism of surroundings, illusion will change into vicarious desire, and life will become boring. - **28. 매일 지진이 나는 마을: 인내** 대체로 불공평한 이 세상에서 그나마 공평한 점이 있다면 같은 조건에선 인내한 만큼 기회가 주어진다는 것이다. **28. The town where the earthquake breaks out everyday: Patience** If something fair exists in the unfair world, that is to be given opportunities on the same condition as much as one persevered. - **29. 왕의 여드름: 안주** 어느 순간의 삶에 안주하게 되는 것이 잘못된 것은 아니다. 단지 어린 시절의 꿈이 미약하게라도 남아 있다면 곧 안주하고 있는 자신을 스스로 견디지 못하는 순간이 올 뿐이다. **29. The king’s pimples: Complacency** It’s not wrong to be complacent at a certain moment of life. If you have a mere dream of your childhood, the moment when you can’t bear yourself being complacent in the comfort zone always will come. - **30. 엄마의 성: 부모 마음** 마지막 순간까지 자신의 편이 되어줄 수 있는 존재가 실재하는 것보다 고마운 일은 없다. **30. The mom’s castle: Parents’ love** There’s nothing to be more thankful for than the one who is by my side until the last moment. - **31. 아버지의 발: 가족** 벗어날 수 없는 울타리 안에서는 그곳의 좋은 면만 생각하는 것이 상책이다. **31. The father’s feet: Family** It would be better to think about good sides at the unescapable fence. - **32. 변신하는 봉우리: 착각** 지속적인 삶의 회의로부터 자유로워지기 위해선 남에게 피해를 거의 주지 않으면서 내가 행복해 질 수 있는 방법을 찾는 것이 중요하다. 자아도취 상태에 빠져보는 것도 그중 하나인데 단, 다른 사람의 반응에 초연할 수 있어야 한다. **32. The transformative peak: Delusion** To feel free from the consistent skepticism of life, the way to happiness, hardly hurting others, is important. Falling into narcissism is one of the ways to escape, but you have to not mind how others think about you. - **33. 물고기 모양의 돌이 숨겨져 있는 자갈밭: 자존심** 나를 아는 한 사람 앞에서는 버리고 나를 모르는 사람 앞에서는 지켜야 하는 것이 자존심이다. **33. The gravel field where a fish-shaped stone is hidden: Pride** What you have to get rid of in front of those who know you, and what you have to protect in front of those who don’t know you, is pride. - **34. 화폐를 경작하는 농장: 돈** 나보다 가난한 사람에게 기꺼이 돈을 써야 한다. 사람들은 보통 자신보다 부자인 사람들에게 비굴한 모습으로 돈을 쓰고 반대의 경우에는 구두쇠처럼 아낀다. 그렇게 되면 가진 돈의 액수에 따라 신분이 결정되기 때문에 상위 계급에 종속된 가난한 삶으로부터 벗어날 수가 없다. **34. The farm where the currency is cultivated: Money** You can be willing to spend your money on those poorer than you. People usually spend their money on those who are richer than them. In the opposite situation, they don’t spend money like a miser. If so, you cannot get out of poor life that is subordinated to the upper class because their class is decided according to how much money they have. - **35. 단어를 화폐로 사용하는 공동체: 잠** 의외로 해답은 단순한 모습으로 가까운 곳에 있기도 하다. 가령, 공기가 맑은 낯선 장소에서 깊은 잠을 자고 나면 기분이 좋아진다. **35. The community that uses words as the currency: Sleep** The answer is unexpectedly close to you in a simple form. For example, I feel good when I have a deep sleep in a strange place with clear air. - **36. 논리의 입: 거절** 거절의 여백이 없는 부탁일수록 거절하는게 좋다. 고통은 거절하는 사람에게 더 많은 법이니 죄책감을 조금만 느껴도 된다. **36. The logical mouth: Refusal** You had better refuse a favor that is hard to refuse. You can feel a little guilty because people who refuse favors feel more pain. - **37. 세상에서 제일 낮은 전망대: 이해** 문제가 생겼을 때 딱 한 발짝만 뒤로 물러나 바라보면 가능하다. 다만 그 문제가 자신의 것이라면 뒤로 물러나는 일이 만만치 않게 된다. 평화는 그 한 발짝에서 온다. **37. The lowest observatory in the world: Understanding** When a problem happens, you should look at it by taking a step back. However, if the problem is yours, it is not easy to pull back. Peace will come from that step. - **38. 눈물을 파는 가게: 감동** 해이해지려는 순간 스스로에게 질문을 던져볼 필요가 있다. “나는 누군가를 감동시킨 적이 있는가?” 삶의 목적으로서가 아닌 그저 내 존재의 근거로서. **38. The store that sells tears: Being moved** The moment when you loosen up, you need to ask yourself. “Have I moved someone?” By the reason of my existence, not by the objective of life. - **39. 뱀의 모양을 한 도시: 비교** 비교의 주어는 언제나 ‘나’여야 한다. ‘너’로 시작되는 비교의 문장은 말하는 사람과 주어가 다름으로써 어떤 것도 변화시키지 못한 채 모두를 불행하게 만든다. **39. The snake-shaped city: Comparison** The subject of comparison is always ‘me’. The comparative sentence that starts with ‘you’ cannot change anything and makes everyone unhappy because the speaker differs from the subject. - **40. 파티오의 항구: 일탈** 사실 사람을 지배하는 규범의 수명이 그 사람의 삶보다 긴 경우는 거의 없었다. 일탈의 가치는 어떤 규범을 어겼는지가 아닌 어떤 고정관념을 깼는지에 의해 매겨진다. **40. The harbor of patios: Deviation** In fact, it hardly exists that the lifespan of the rule that governs a person is longer than the life of the person. The value of deviation is not what rule the person goes against, but what stereotype the person breaks. - **41. 가장 외로웠던 이들의 무덤: 고집** 고집이 센 사람들은 사실 가장 외로운 사람들이다. 그래서 어떤 이의 고집에 의해 마음에 상처를 입었다면 그의 외로움을 측은하게 여기면서 그 상처를 치료하면 된다. **41. The grave of the loneliest: Persistence** In fact, persistent people are the loneliest people. So when you get hurt by someone’s persistence, you just heal your wound and have pity on their loneliness. - **42. 선녀들의 연못: 쾌락** 자주 반복되는 쾌락은 감동이 작다. 지루하고 지친 일상 이후에 비로소 맞이하는 찬란하고 짜릿한 환희가 좋은 것이기에 오늘도 이렇게 흘러갔던 것이다. **42. The pond of angels: Pleasure** Frequently repeated pleasure is less exciting. Because it’s good to see glorious and thrilling excitement after boring and tiring daily life, we’ve just lived through another day of life. - **43. 해바라기 감옥: 분노** 최고의 복수는 내가 잘 살아가는 것이라는 격언을 언제나 되새겨야 한다. 분노는 복수를 할 수 없는 이들의 슬픔이다. **43. The sunflower prison: Anger** We always have to remind ourselves of the quote that the best revenge is to live our lives well. Anger is the sadness of people who cannot take revenge. - **44. 열 세가지 온천수가 분출되는 휴양지: 위기** 위기의 순간이 오면 담담하게 그 불길 속으로 뛰어들어야 하는데 대개 그러지 못하는 이유는 아직 잃을 게 남아 있기 때문이다. 그렇다면 다행히도 아직 심각한 위기는 아니다. **44. The resort which gives out 13 kinds of hot water: Crisis** When the moment of crisis comes, we have to jump into the fire, but most of people cannot do that because they have something to lose. It means that the crisis is not so serious yet. - **45. 바다 위의 활주로: 기회** 기회는 변덕스러운 마음처럼 종종 모습을 바꾼다. 지금 놓친 기회는 같은 모습으로 다시 오지 않는 법이기에 그럴 때 미련을 버리고 ‘사실 좋은 기회가 아니었을 거야.’ 라고 생각한다. **45. The runway on the sea: Opportunity** An opportunity changes its shape like a volatile mind. The same opportunity that we missed doesn’t come twice, so we don’t regret and instead think ‘Maybe it wasn’t a good opportunity.’ - **46. 제국이 빠져버린 함정: 전통** 사람들이 집착하는 전통이란 가까운 과거의 유물들 중에서 자신들에게 익숙한 것만을 의미하는 경우가 많다. 그리고 그런 전통들 역시 과거에는 전통의 반대편에 있던 것이었을 가능성이 높다. **46. The trap that the empire fell into: Tradition** The traditions that people are obsessed with are usually familiar to things from recent history. There is a high possibility that these types of traditions actually go against past traditions as well. - **47. 작은 바다와 큰 호수: 역사** 자신이 역사의 중요한 한 순간에 있다는 착각이 존재를 힘들게 한다. 우리는 수백 년 후 역사 교과서에서 단 한 줄 정도로 표현되는 시대를 살고 있는 것일지도 모른다. **47. The small sea and big lake: History** The illusion that we are in an important historical moment makes it hard for us to exist. Our lives might just be a sentence of hundreds of thousands of pages of history. - **48. 수많은 사연들이 잠겨 있는 호수: 침묵** 침묵에는 다양한 원인이 존재하는데 가장 큰 두 가지는 인내와 비굴함이다. 침묵은 대개 자퇴와 퇴사, 이혼과 절교, 투쟁과 전쟁을 막아주기에 삶의 미덕이 될 수 있지만 그러기 위해서는 자신이 침묵하는 이유에서 비굴함의 비율을 절반 이하로 줄여야 하는 전제조건이 따른다. **48. The lake where a lot of stories are sinking: Silence** There are various kinds of reasons for silence. The biggest reasons are patience and servility. Mostly, silence can be a virtue in life because it protects from leaving school and quitting a job, divorce and ending a friendship, or strike and war, but to justify it, the portion of the servile silence has to be reduced to less than half. That’s the premise. - **49. 일벌레들의 리조트: 보람** 잘못된 것은 나의 탓으로 받아들이고 잘된 것은 남의 덕으로 돌리는 사람만이 작은 조직이라도 이끌 자격이 있다. **49. The resort for working ants: Worth** Only people who think mistakes are their fault and success are due to others’ contribution are qualified to lead a small organization. - **50. 시간이 거꾸로 가는 거리: 후회** 어떻게 살고 싶냐는 질문에 대한 최고의 답은 “후회를 하지 않는 삶”이라고 말하는 것이다. 조금 더 나아가 언제라도 “지금 당장 죽게 되더라도 후회는 없어요.” 라고 말할 준비가 되어 있으면 괜찮은 삶을 살고 있는 것이다. 다만 이런 전제가 붙겠지만 말이다. “내 삶은 상관이 없지만 내가 사랑하는 이들을 생각하면 그럴 수는 없지요.” **50. The street which time goes against: Regret** The best answer to how you live your life is “A life without regret”. Moreover, if you are ready to say, “I don’t have any regrets even if I die right now.”, you are living quite a good life. Of course, there is a precondition: “It’s okay for me, but I can’t do that if I think about my loved ones.” - **51. 무수한 질문의 입구: 고독** 고독은 사유와 아집을 이끈다. 그렇기에 고독한 사람들은 삶의 진리를 얻거나 시간을 낭비하게 된다. 보통 진리를 깨우쳤다고 믿는 사람들은 시간을 낭비했던 경우에 속한다. **51. The entrance of hundreds of thousands of questions: Solitude** Solitude causes reasons and stubbornness. So solitary people get a truth of life or waste their time. People who believe that they have realized life wisdom are generally in a wasting-time group. - **52. 유일한 그늘: 긍정** 긍정적인 사람에게도 나쁜 일은 종종 온다. 다만 긍정적인 사람에게만 좋은 일이 올 뿐이다. **52. The only shadow: Optimism** The bad events can often come to optimists. But the good events only come to positive people. - **53. 망각의 샘: 권력** 권력의 어떤 층위에서도 강자와 약자가 존재한다. 과반수 이상의 사람들이 동조하기에 강자는 의미를 갖지만 옳고 그름을 떠나 누군가는 약자의 편을 들어줘야 한다. 그것이 의식적으로 강자의 편을 들면서도 어느 지점에선 약자가 될 수 밖에 없는 대다수 사람들에 대한 최소한의 선의이며, 종교가 그 역할을 해주지 못하는 시대를 살아가는 개인들에게 주어진 사명이다. **53. The spring of oblivion: Power** There exist the majority and the minority at any level of power. The majority have power because more than 50% of people agree with them. So someone has to be on the side of minority no matter whether they are right or wrong. It is the least good faith for the people who are consciously on the majority side but cannot help becoming the minority at a certain point. It is the obligation for the individual who lives in the generation that the religion doesn’t play a leading role. - **54. 너그러운 악마의 지혜: 중독** 무엇인가에 중독되어 있다는 사실은 보통 스스로를 하찮게 만들지만 무엇에 중독되어 있는지 인식함으로써 자신을 완성기키기도 한다. 이런 것들이다. 카페인, 니코틴, 알코올, 인터넷, 신앙, 성욕, 일. 그리고 끊임없이 나와 타협하려고 하는 내 마음속의 다른 나. **54. The wisdom of generous demon: Addiction** Addiction makes you not only miserable but also perfect through recognizing what you are addicted to. Here are examples: caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, internet, religious belief, sexual desire, and work. And a different version of me who constantly tries to compromise with myself. - **55. 돌아올 수 없는 고개: 두려움** 지금 마음속에 존재하는 모든 걱정들은 보통 몇 해만 지나면 어떤 과정을 통해서든 그 어느 것도 남아 있지 않게 된다. 두려움은 미래를 핑계거리로 삼은 현재의 변명이다. **55. The hill where we cannot return: Fear** All worries in our mind will completely disappear in some years in certain ways. Fear is an excuse for tomorrow. **56. 서른세 채의 통나무집: 배려** 일상생활에서 남을 배려할 줄 아는 사람을 동료로 삼아야 한다. 남을 위해 최소한의 배려도 못하는 사람이 내게 베푸는 관심은 공감의 능력이 배제된 위선이다. **56. The thirty log houses: Consideration** You have to make colleagues who can be generous to others in everyday life. The attentive attitude of people who don’t give any consideration to others is hypocrisy that doesn’t have any sense of sympathy. - **57. 멈춤이라는 이름의 국제공항: 위로** 사실 위로는 상처를 치유해줄 수 없다. 그렇기에 위로를 하는 좋은 방법은 상대의 고통을 나는 결코 알 수 없다고 전제하는 것이고, 위로를 받는 좋은 방법은 내게 말을 건네는 존재가 있다는 사실 정도에 감사하는 것이다. **57. The international airport named STOP: Consolation** To tell the truth, consolation cannot heal any wounds. So, a good way to console is to manifest that I can never know how hurt you are, and the good way to be consoled is to be thankful that I have someone who I can talk to. - **58. 바이러스를 판매하는 약국: 건강** 지금 이 순간, 숨을 쉬고 글을 읽고 생각할 수 있다는 사실에 억지로라도 감동해야 한다. **58. The pharmacy which sells a virus: Health** At the right moment, I have to be intentionally touched to be able to breathe, read, and think. - **59. 신의 낙서: 신념** 나와는 다른 신념을 가진, 정말이지 뇌의 구조가 궁금한 저 사람의 진심이 나의 진심보다 열등하다는 증거는 없다. 서로 자신의 생각을 바꿀리 없고, 누군가는 상처를 받아야할 운명이라면 내가 틀렸다는 것을 인정하기 싫기에 나는 나의 신념을 믿되 누구에게도 강요하지 않으며 누구보다 행복하기 위해 노력한다. 내 삶만이 내 신념을 증명할 수 있기 때문이다. **59. The God’s scribble: Belief** There is no evidence that the sincerity of others is less valuable than mine even though they have different beliefs and different way of thinking, I want to know. I know that we won’t change our beliefs, and if someone admits that they are wrong and gets hurt, I don’t want to be the one. So I do trust my belief but don’t push it onto anyone. And I try to be happier than anybody. Because only my life can prove my belief. - **60. 예술가의 오두막: 예술** 인생의 목적은 예술이 될 수 있다. * 이곳에서는 다음과 같은 이야기가 전해진다. 예술은 육지와 바다의 경계가 없는 곳에서 항상 상처를 받는 고독한 영혼의 모습을 하고 있다. 예술의 영역에서의 미덕이란 큰 것을 작다고 얘기하고, 있는 것을 없다고 얘기하는 것이다. 가급적 심각한 표정을 짓는 것이 유리하다. **60. The artist’s cabin: Art** The objective of life can be art. * There is a story. Art is a shape of a hurting-solitary soul at the place where there are no boundaries between a land the sea. The virtue of art is to say that a big thing is small and a thing that exists doesn’t exist. So it is helpful for you to have a serious look if possible. - **61. 길만 완성된 도시: 기다림** 무엇인가를 기다릴 때의 마음 상태는 자신이 그 무엇을 어떻게 생각하는지를 대변한다. 따라서 삶에서의 좋은 결정이란 지루하거나 괴로운 기다림을 줄이는 과정을 의미한다. **61. The city where the road was only completed: Waiting** The state of mind when we are waiting for something represents your thought of what you’re waiting for. So making a good decision in life means reducing boring and painful waiting. - **62. 그리움의 해안: 말** 대화의 가장 중요한 기술은 기다림이다. 일단 상대방의 이야기를 들어주며 심지어 어떤 때는 나의 할 말은 다음 번 대화로 미루는 것이다. 그 지점에서부터 소통은 시작된다. 단, 대화의 상태가 나보다 지위나 권력이 높은 경우에는 이 방법을 적용하면 안 되는데 우리는 보통 그런 때에만 기다림을 구사하는 편이다. **62. The seashore of missing: Art of Conversation** The most important skill of conversation is waiting. You listen to others at first, and even sometimes you should even carry your ideas into the next conversation. Communication starts at this point. However, you don’t apply to this skill when you communicate with superiors. You had better just wait in this situation. - **63. 두려움을 생산하는 발전소: 성공** 자신이 지금까지 두려워했던 것이 무엇이었는지 마침내 깨닫고 직시하게 되면 성공의 길로 접어들 수 있다. 사람들이 성공하지 못하는 이유는 자신이 두려워했던 것을 파헤치는 과정이 성공하지 못한 상태로 사는 것보다 더욱 괴롭기 때문일지도 모른다. **63. The power plant that produces fear: Success** When you realize what you have been afraid of up until now, you can get onto the road of success. The reason that people don’t succeed might be getting know what you are afraid of is more painful than living an unsuccessful life. - **64. 사막의 입구에 위치한 오아시스: 우상** 우상이란 종교적, 정치적인 의미를 가진 조각상, 자연물, 물건, 기호, 인물 등을 의미하는 것이 아니라, 그것을 바라보는 사람의 시선에 믿음만이 존재하게 되는 상태를 말한다. **64. The oasis that is located in the entrance of the desert: Idols** ‘Idols’ doesn’t mean political things such as sculptures, natural objects, goods, sings, and characters, but the belief of how people view them. - **65. 길을 잃은 유목민들의 오래된 촌락: 행운** 이 세상에서 가장 공평하지 못한 것이 행운의 기회다. 행운은 몇몇 사람에게만 돌아가기 때문에 그냥 포기하고 살아가는 것이 편하다. **65. The old village of nomads who got lost — Luck** The unfairest thing in the world is a lucky chance. Luck is just for some people, so it’s better to give it up and live a life. - **66. 믿음이 기원된 바다: 종교** 인생의 목적은 종교에 헌신하는 것일 수 있다. **66. The sea originated from belief: Religion** The objective of life might be the dedication to religion. - **67. 세상의 끝: 미련** 미련은 현재를 아름답게도 슬프게도 만드는데 아름다운 미련을 만들기 위해서는 마지막 단계에서 딱 한 번만 아무 말도 하지 않고 그냥 뒤돌아서면 된다. **67. The end of the world: Lingering Affection** Lingering affection makes the present beautiful or sad. If you want to make beautiful lingering affection, you just turn back without any words at the last stage. - **68. 사랑하는 사람들의 도시: 사랑** 인생의 목적은 헌신적인 사랑일 수 있다. **68. The city of people who love each other: Love** The objective of life might be committed love. - **69. 자만의 계곡: 우월감** 우월감의 결핍은 대리만족으로 해소된다. 단, 타인에게 기대어 심적 위로나 기쁨을 얻기 위한 전제조건은 자신의 열등감을 직시하는 것이다. 열등감을 숨기면 질투가 되고 열등감을 과장하면 집착이 된다. **69. The arrogant valley: Superiority** A lack of superiority is relieved by vicarious satisfaction. However, the premise to get emotional consolation or happiness by depending on others is to face your inferiority. When you try to hide your inferiority, it will be jealousy. When you exaggerate it, it will be obsession. - **70. 아픔을 담고 있는 호수 지구: 외로움** 외로움을 느끼는 순간 나는 나를 인식한다. 그제야 보잘 것 없고 연약한 육체와 그 속에 담긴 나약한 영혼이 보이기 때문이다. 어쩔 수 없이 그게 나였다고 인정하며 외로움이 밀려올 때 도망치지 않고 오히려 그 순간을 즐긴다. **70. The lake that contains pain: Loneliness** The moment when I feel loneliness, I recognize myself because I can see my weak body and vulnerable soul in the said body. So, I admit that’s me and don’t run away from myself. I rather enjoy the moment when the wave of loneliness surges over me. - **71. 제자리로 돌아오게 만드는 우회로: 실패** 실패를 기록해보자. 실패의 리스트로 종이 한 장을 채울 때쯤에는 신기하게도 꽤 괜찮은 삶을 살았다는 느낌이 든다. 실패조차 경험해보지 못한 인생이 가장 허무한것이다. **71. The detour that makes us return to the original position: Failure** Write down failures. When the whole piece of paper is filled with failure, I strangely feel that I live a quite decent life. It is the most meaningless to not experience any failures while living a life. - **72. 고독을 퍼 올리는 유전: 우울** 우울이 자라는 곳은 자신이 기대하는 자신과 거울에 비친 자신 사이에 존재하는 영원한 간극이다. 보통 무언가로 엎어 감추려 하지만 그 효과는 한시적일 뿐이다. 차라리 “아, 진짜 우울하다.” 라고 소리내 말하는 편이 낫다. **72. The oilfield where pumps up solitude: Depression** There is the place where depression grows. In that place where there is a huge gap that never bridges, which is between me who I expect and me who is reflected in a mirror. So, it’s better to say out loud, “I’m so depressed!” - **73. 투명한 벽돌로 지어진 도시: 무지** 내가 안다고 여기면서 집착하는 것 중 다수가 백 년만 지나도 전혀 말이 안 되는 것일 가능성은 매우 높다. 마치 지구가 평평하다는 중세의 확인이나 특정한 정치 체제가 인류의 해답이라는 시대마다의 신념처럼 지금의 사실과 미래의 시선은 연결되어 있지 않다. 결국 아는 것이 없다는 것을 알게 되면 매번 순리대로 흐르지 않아 보이는 일들을 너그럽게 바라볼 수 있다. **73. The city made up of transparent bricks: Ignorance** It is highly possible that things that I know much about and am obsessed with doesn’t make sense. The truth of the present doesn’t link to the perspective of the future. It’s like the argument of the Mediterranean that that the earth is flat, or the belief of every generation that some special political isms are the right answers for human beings. When we finally realize that we don’t know anything, we can generously look at unreasonable things that have made sense so far. - **74. 기억을 지워주는 예언자의 집: 추억** 지난날의 사랑이 이루어지지 않았던 이유는 지금 추억할 것이 필요했기 때문이다. **74. The prophet’s house that erases your memory: Memory** The reason that my love in the past didn’t complete is that I need something to recall in the present. - **75. 아주 우연히 연결된 운하: 결혼** 결혼 제도는 인류의 문명이 허약한 남자들과 자존적인 여자들에게 선사한 선물이다. 아주 강한 남자이거나 극히 순종적인 여자가 아니라면 후회는 숙명으로 미뤄두고 일단 감사히 결혼식을 치른다. **75. The very accidentally connected canal: Marriage** The marriage system is a gift for uncivilized men and confident women. If a person is not a very strong man or a extremely submissive woman, they think that a regret is a destiny and are willing to get married. - **76. 패자들이 세운 도시: 결정** 결정은 마음이 이끄는 대로 빨리 하는 편이 좋다. 고민에 투자 했을 시간들은 대신 빠른 결정을 수습하기 위해 사용한다. 어떤 방식도 정답은 아니겠지만 이 경우 최소한 결과에 대해 남의 탓을 하지 않게 되는 장점이 있다. **76. The city built by losers: Decision** It’s better to make a quick decision based on where your mind takes you. Instead, you use the time that you put into a certain worry to make a quick decision. It might not be a right answer, but at least it might be an advantage that makes a result I don’t blame others for. - **77. 가시덤불 사막의 지하 요새: 무의식** 내가 남들에게 어떻게 보일지 생각하기 위해 가끔씩 전신 거울을 바라본다. 그건 내가 남들에게 어떻게 보이는지가 중요해서가 아니라 남들을 비판적으로 바라보던 나의 잣대에 나의 무의식적인 행동 역시 걸리는 건 아닐지 확인하는 과정이다. 그럴 때마다 나는 나의 시선에서 자유롭지 못하다. 구부정한 자세, 어색한 표정, 이상한 웃음소리, 성급히 판단하는 조급함. 그리고 자유롭지 못함에서 비롯되는 편협한 생각들. **77. The underground fortress in the thorn bush desert: Unconsciousness** Sometimes I look at a mirror to think about how others view me. It’s not because how I want to look to others but because I want to find my unconscious attitude and perspective that I can critically look at others with. Whenever I do that, I am not free from my perspective. Stooped posture, awkward expression, weird laughter, and impatience to decide hastily. And narrow thoughts that stem from restriction. - **78. 눈을 감으면 사라져버리는 마을: 증오** 증오라는 감정에서 비롯된 행동이 자신을 포함한 누구에게도 기쁨이나 즐거움을 주는 일은 없다. 증오심에 불타는 것은 개인의 자유겠지만 자기한테 좋을 건 하나도 없으니 이기심을 발휘해 미움의 감정을 버리는 게 스스로에게 이익이 된다. **78. The town that disappears when you close your eyes: Hatred** The behavior caused by hatred can never make anyone, including you, happy. Burning with hatred is your free will, but it costs nothing to be good to yourself. So it is beneficial to get rid of hatred by your sense of selfishness. - **79. 숨은 자들의 주거 동굴: 열등감** 콤플렉스를 사람들 앞에서 당당하게 얘기하게 될 수 있을 때 나는 비로소 자유로울 수 있다. 용기를 내어도 되는 이유는 단순하다. 사람들은 저마다 바쁘고 자신이 제일 중요해서 나한테 그렇게 큰 관심을 갖고 있지 않다. **79. The housing cave for recluse: Inferiority Complex** When I confidently tell others of my inferiority complex, I can finally be free. The reason to encourage myself is simple. People don’t have any interest in me because they are busy for some reasons, and the most important thing to them is themselves. - **80. 유령들의 해수욕장: 죽음** 오늘 시점에서 후회로 남아 있는 일들을 리스트로 만든 후 일단 수습할 수 있는 것부터 하나하나 처리하여 후회를 없앤다. 돌이킬 수 없는 요소라면 망각의 기술을 사용한다. 어느 정도의 회한이 사라지고 나면 이제 잘 죽을 준비가 된 것이다. **80. The beach of ghosts: Death** Today I make a list of regrettable things, and I remove the regret one by one, from the things that I can handle. I use the art of oblivion if it is not irreversible. When some amounts of regrets disappear, I am ready to die well. - **81. 어처구니가 없는 지름길의 유적: 제도** 신과 권력을 숭배하는 그 어떤 형식도 본질에 우선할 수 없다. **81. Ridiculous short-cut: Systems** Nothing, even though it is the worship of the god and power, can come before essence. - **82. 뿔뿔이 흩어진 요새: 편견** 성서의 말을 빌리자면 진리만이 우리를 자유롭게 할 수 있다. 자유로움이란 편견에 의한 마음의 불편함이 없이 기쁨과 슬픔을 느끼는 것이다. 만약 인종, 역사, 지역, 종교, 정치 등을 기쁨과 슬픔이 아닌 좋고 싫음의 시선으로 바라보고 있다면 그건 아직 진리에서 아주 멀리 떨어져 있음을 의미한다. **82. The fortress scattered here and there: Prejudice** The bible goes: the only truth can set you free. Freedom is to feel happiness and sadness without any inconvenience due to the prejudice such as race, history, community, religion, politics and so on. If you look at them with the perspective of whether you like or hate it, not whether you are happy or sad, it means that you are still far away from the truth. - **83. 소금과 마약의 봉우리: 호기심** 누군가를 괴롭히지 않는 선에서 안 해본 건 죄다 해보기로 한다. **83. The peak of salt and drug: Curiosity** I will do everything that I haven’t experienced yet as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone. - **84. 세월에 의해 돌아가는 풍차들: 시간** 포기의 기술이 시간의 가치를 다르게 한다. 시간의 한계에 의한 불가항력적인 포기는 이전의 시간조차 아깝게 만들지만 적절한 시기의 과감한 포기에 의해 얻게 되는 시간은 반전의 원천이다. **84. The windmills being moved by time: Time** The art of abandonment changes the value of time. The uncontrollable abandonment due to time limitation makes even previous time in vain, but the time when we get by bold abandonment in opportune time is the foundation of reverse. - **85. 혀를 용서해주는 신전: 거짓말** 기왕 거짓말을 하려면 걸리지 않도록 치밀하게 해야 한다. 거짓말의 기술은 경험치에서 비롯되기에 상대방의 경험이 내 경험과 비슷하거나 많다면 걸릴 가능성이 높아진다. 그래서 상대를 잘 고르거나 거짓말을 잘할 수 있도록 많은 경험을 쌓아야 하는데 그렇게 노력하다 보면 어느새 거짓말을 하지 않아도 되는 상황이 온다. **85. The temple where your tongue is forgiven: lies** When you tell a lie, you have to make a detailed plan not to be discovered. Because the art of lie is related to quantity of experience, it is highly possible to be uncovered if my experience is similar to or less than others. So you have to choose the right person who is gullible or practice a lot to be a professional liar. If you try hard, some day in the future you won’t need to tell lies anymore. - **86. 모든 방이 싱글인 호텔: 자유** 자유를 두려워하는 사람은 의외로 많다. 그들은 입으로 자유를 갈망하지만 항상 어떤 종류의 굴레를 찾아다니면서 자신에게 가해지는 속박이 자신의 이념이나 사상에 맞을 땐 다소곳이 순종한다. **86. The hotel that all the rooms are single: Freedom** A lot of people are surprisingly afraid of freedom. They are eager to be free with their lips but are always looking for a certain type of cage. When they think the restriction that is imposed on them matches their ideas or thoughts, they easily obey it. - **87. 나란히 서 있는 대관람차: 시기** 마음에 시기심이 피어날 때 나의 그릇이 작음을 깨닫고 얼른 감출 줄 알아야 한다. 그렇게 짧게 스쳐가는 질투의 감정은 열정을 낳게 되니 시기심이 아예 없는 것보다는 낫다. **87. The Ferris wheels that are standing side by side: Jealousy** When jealousy arises in my mind, I have to realize my bowl is small and need to quickly hide it. The feeling of jealousy that is quickly passing by you brings out passion, so feeling jealous is better than feeling nothing. - **88. 창문 모양만 다른 쌍둥이 도시: 반성** 대부분의 반성은 망각에서 자유롭지 못하다. 망각은 자기애에서 비롯된다. 자신을 버릴 수 있는 사람은 그리 많지 않기에 대부분의 반성은 믿지 않는 게 상책이다. **88. The twin city that has only different windows: Reflection** Most of reflection is not free from oblivion. Oblivion stems from self-love. Few people can abandon themselves, so it is better not to believe most reflections. - **89. 여자의 목장과 남자의 양어장 — 남자와 여자** 남녀관계는 이해가 아닌 암기로 완성된다. 그들이 외워야 하는 내용은 딸을 바라보는 아버지의 시선이나 아들을 바라보는 어머니의 시선과 일치한다. 하지만 연인들은 아이를 가져본 적이 없고 부부는 더 이상 서로를 위해 노력할 여유가 많지 않기 때문에 남자와 여자는 영원한 미완의 관계로 남을 수밖에 없다. **89. A woman’s ranch and a man’s fish farm: A man and a woman** A relationship between a man and a woman is completed by memorizing, not by understanding. What they have to memorize is equal to the perspective of a father who is looking at his daughter or the perspective of a mother who is looking at her son. However, unmarried couples haven’t had children, and married couples haven’t had enough time to try to improve their relationship, so a man and a woman cannot help maintaining their relationship endlessly incomplete. - **90. 빛으로 지어진 우주 기지: 우주** 우리의 인식 체계는 지구의 자전과 공전에 귀속된다. 만약 어떤 별의 자전주기가 지구 기준으로 1억 년이라면 그 별의 주민들은 우주의 역사를 138일 정도로 생각하고 있을 것이다. (물론 그 외계인의 손가락이 열 개여서 십진법을 쓴다는 가정하에.) **90. The space station made up of light: Cosmos** The system of our consciousness belongs to the rotation and revolution of the earth. If the period of the rotation of a certain star is a billion years as the standard of the earth, the citizens of the star might consider the history of space as 138 days. (Of course, on the assumption that the aliens have ten fingers and use the decimal system.) - **91. 사라지는 별을 기록하는 천문대: 성찰** 모든 분노와 슬픔과 고통의 책임은 자신에게 있다. 성찰이란 내가 잘했다면 그런 일은 벌어지지 않았다거나 그런 일이 벌어졌어도 이 지경이 되지는 않았을 것을 깨닫는 과정이다. **91. The observatory where disappearing stars are written: Introspection** All anger, sadness, and pain is our own responsibility. Introspection is the process of getting to realize that if I did well, things that made us angry, sad, and painful wouldn’t happen or even though they happened, they wouldn’t get worse. - **92. 나타났다 사라지는 삼각형 섬: 겸손** 형식적인 겸손과 진실한 겸손의 차이는 운을 표현하는 자세에서 드러난다. 전자는 “운이 좋았어요.”라고 얘기하지만 후자는 “운도 좋았어요.”라고 생각한다. 겸손은 사실 실력과 자신감에서 비롯된 더 높은 경지가 무한하다는 것을 인정하는 이유이기 때문이다. **92. The triangle island that appears and disappears: Humility** The difference between formal humility and genuine humility is how it is expressed. The former says, “It was lucky.” The latter says, “It was lucky as well.” Because humility is to accept something higher and infinite that is originated from competence and confidence. - **93. 진실을 숨겨둔 바위: 양심** 나의 양심은 내가 상대에게 기대하는 양심의 크기에 비례한다. **93. The rock hidden truth: Conscience** My conscience is proportionate to the conscience that I expect from others. - **94. 관념이 만들어낸 운하 도시와 과묵한 검은 바위: 상상** 자신에게 위대한 상상을 할 능력이 없다고 해도 실망할 필요는 없다. 누군가의 근사한 상상에 동조하는 것만으로도 세상의 진보에 일조할 수 있다. 왜냐하면 우리가 사는 이곳은 누군가의 상상을 폄하하는 보편적이 습성이 지배하기 때문이다. **94. The canal city created by notion and the black reticent rock: Image** You don’t need to be disappointed even though you don’t have the imagination to create a great image. You can help the advancement of the world just as you agree with other peoples’ great images. Because it is universal to belittle others’ images, and it is pervasive in the world where we’re living. - **95. 3000개의 직업이 있는 작은 마을: 위선** 위선과 진심의 경계를 위태롭게 타는 사람들 사이에서 진정성을 발견하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 다소 시행착오가 생기더라도 한 사람을 일단 신뢰한 후 추악한 모습을 발견하게 되었을 때 그를 영원히 멀리하는 것이 그나마 괜찮은 방법이다. (부디 어떤 배신으로 인해 전 재산 또는 진실한 영혼을 잃지 않기를.) **95. The small village that there is 3000 jobs: Hypocrisy** It is not easy to find authenticity between people who are on the fence of hypocrisy and sincerity. So it is quite good way to trust people first and then keep away from them when you get to know how ugly they are even though you make little trial and error. (I hope I won’t lose all my property or my true soul because of someone’s betrayal.) - **96. 무지개의 집: 자연** 매년마다 새싹과 낙엽을 경이롭게 바라보는 습관을 들이다 보면 어느 순간 자신도 자연이 된다. **96. The rainbow house: Nature** As I see new buds and fallen leaves with a breathtaking perspective every year, I find myself to become nature. - **97. 일곱 번째 신전: 막막함** 앞이 너무 막막하여 도망치고 싶을 때가 있다. 그때는 나에게 가장 소중한 것을 생각한다. 만약 떠오르는 것이 나의 생명이라면 도망치는 것이 맞다. 그 밖의 다른 것이라면 시간의 힘에 기대어 버텨보는 게 낫다. **97. The seventh temple: Frustration** Sometimes I want to run away when I really don’t know what to do. Whenever it happens, I think of what the most important thing in my life is. If the thing that pops up in my head is my life, it is right to run away. If not, it is better to endure it depending on the power of time. - **98. 지혜로운 바위: 지혜** 인생의 목적은 지혜를 구하는 것이 될 수 있다. **98. The wise rock: Wisdom** The objective of life might be the pursuit of wisdom. - **99. 잃어버린 천국: 인간관계** 파멸 직전의 인간관계에서는 분노를 가장 많이 표출한 사람이 지고 말을 제일 조금 하는 사람이 이긴다. **99. Forgotten heaven: Relationship** In a relationship that comes to destroy, a person who expresses anger most loses, and a person who speaks least wins. - **100. 갑자기 사라져버린 한 개의 탑: 반전** 인생에서 영화에서처럼 반전의 순간이 반드시 있다. 다만 영화와 달리 반전이 벌어진 후 이야기가 끝이 나진 않는다. **100. The tower that is suddenly disappeared: Twist** Like a movie, we will definitely confront twists in our lives. The difference is that our stories do not end after a twist happened. - **101. 어린 마녀의 빗자루 창고: 나이** 삶의 속도와 일상의 힘겨움은 나이에 비례한다. 한 살 한 살 늘어가며 고통은 커지지만 그럼에도 불구하고 생을 견딜 수 있는 건 나이의 숫자만큼 봄을 맞이해봤기 때문이다. **101. The broom warehouse of a young witch: Age** The speed of life and difficulties of a daily life are proportionate to age. The older we are getting, the more the pain is growing. Nevertheless, the reason we can get on with our lives is that we have seen one fine spring day as many as our ages. - **102. 바다의 요정들이 출몰하는 돌기 해변: 인연** 우연을 필연으로 만들어가는 과정이 ‘인연’을 설명한다. **102. The beach which sea fairies appear: Ties** The process of making coincidence into inevitability shows what ties are. - **103. 허무함이 보관된 창고: 욕심** 욕심을 부리고 있다는 사실을 인지할 때마다 자신에게 ‘가장 소중한 것’이 무엇이었는지 떠올려야 한다. 물론 가장 소중한 것이 쉽게 떠오를 사람이라면 과한 욕심을 부리지 않았겠지만. **103. The warehouse in which emptiness is contained: Greed** Whenever I realize I am being too greedy, I need to think of what the most important thing is to me. To be sure, if you easily come up with what it is, you won’t have too much greed. - **104. 배신의 늪지대: 배신** 배신하는 사람의 죄의식에 기대할 건 없다. 이미 그는 자신을 합리화하는 일을 마쳤기 때문이다. 배신을 당한 고통은 그 무엇보다 크지만 잘만 이용하면 행복의 밑거름이 될 수 있다. 배신한 사람에게 복수하는 가장 좋은 방법은 그보다 더 행복해지는 것이기 때문이다. **104. The swamp of betrayal: Betrayal** I don’t have any expectations for the guilt of betrayers because they have already finished self-justification. The pain that you experience when you are betrayed is so extremely huge that it cannot compare with anything. However, if you use it well, it can be a foundation of happiness. Because becoming happier is the best revenge toward betrayers. - **105. 인생의 나루터: 탄생** 우연과 순리가 합쳐져 또 하나의 생명이 탄생한다. 어떤 모습이 될지 전혀 예측할 수 없는 자유로운 의지가 주어지고 상처에 민감한 영혼이 육체와 함께 생애를 함께 하게 된다. 허풍과 잔인함이 가득한 이 세상도 탄생의 순간만큼은 아이를 축복한다. 이제 아이는 돌아올 필요가 없는 길을 걸을 것이다. **105. The ferry of life: Birth** Coincidence meets inevitability, and another life is born. The unpredictable freewill is provided, but we will never know where it may take us. And a hurting-sensitive soul will live a life with a physical body together. Even though the world is full of brag and cruelty, it celebrates a newborn baby at this moment of birth. Now a child will go on a journey that he or she doesn’t need to turn back. - **106. 웃음보가 터지는 원형 극장: 재미** 남에게 보여주고자 하는 모든 것은 둘 중의 하나여야 한다. 웃기거나 감동적이거나. **106. The rounded-shaped theater that makes us laugh: Fun** What we want to show to others has to be one of two — whether they are funny or moving. - **107. 황금의 계곡: 경쟁** 경쟁자들이 훌륭해야 성공도 실패도 즐겁다. 항상 좀 더 좋은 조건을 갈망하는 이유는 그곳에 보다 괜찮은 경쟁자들이 있기 때문이어야 한다. **107. The golden valley: Competition** When competing with the greatest, we can enjoy both success and failure. The reason we eager to be in better environment is that we can meet decent competitors there. - **108. 설탕을 캐는 염전: 고정관념** ‘나는 그렇지 않다’보다 더 심한 고정관념은 없다. **108. The salt pond where sugar is produced: Stereotype** ‘I am not that way.’ is the worst stereotype. - **109. 주인이 없는 울타리: 신뢰** 신뢰의 기술은 단순하다. 가급적 말을 덜 하고 많이 듣는 것이다. **109. The fence without a owner: Trust** The art of trust is simple — speaking less and listening as much as you possibly can. - **110. 목적지가 없는 지하 미로: 실수** 대부분의 실수는 주눅이 든 상태에서 저질러진다. 윗사람의 가장 큰 실수는 아랫사람이 실수하지 않는 상황을 만들지 못하는 것이다. **110. The maze without a destination: Mistakes** Most mistakes are made when we feel intimidated. The biggest mistake of a senior is that they let a junior make a mistake. - **111. 영혼의 성: 영혼** 인생의 목적은 스스로가 자신의 영혼을 인식하는 것일 수 있다. **111. The castle of soul: Soul** The objective of life might be to be aware of our souls for ourselves.
