Am I a strong enough to protect myself from you with thorns? I still have a lot of thorns in my heart.

One spoon of hope gave an onion new life even though it didn't have root. It made a new transformation from an old one. Every day it took off itself.

"The little prince" by Antoine Marie-Roger de Saint-Exupery
.............................
"Good-bye," said the fox. "Here is my secret.
It's quite simpel: One sees clearly only
with the heart. Anything essential is invisible
to the eyes."

"Anything essential is invisible to the eyes,"
the little prince repeated, in order to remember.


"It's the time you spent on your rose that makes
your rose so important."

"It's the time? I spent on my rose...,"
the little prince repeated, in order to remember.

"People have forgotten this truth,"
the fox said. "But you mustn't forget it.
You become responsible forever for what you've tamed.
You're responsible for your rose..."

"I'm responsible for my rose...,"
the little prince repeated, in order to remember.

A Father Prayer by General Douglas MacArthur

Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak,
and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid;
one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat,
and humble and gentle in victory.

Build me a son whose wishbone will not be where his backbone should be;
a son who will know Thee and that to know himself is the foundation stone of knowledge.

Lead him I pray, not in the path of ease and comfort,
but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge.
Here let him learn to stand up in the storm;
here let him learn compassion for those who fail.

Build me a son whose heart will be clear,
whose goal will be high; a son who will master himself before he seeks to master other men; one who will learn to laugh, yet never forget how to weep; one who will reach into the future, yet never forget the past.

And after all these things are his, add, I pray, enough of a sense of humor, so that he may always be serious, yet never take himself too seriously.

Give him humility, so that he may always remember the simplicity of true greatness,
the open mind of true wisdom, the meekness of true strength.

Then, I, his father, will dare to whisper, have not lived in vain.

I came back to the kitchen.

Happiness is around dusts.
Appreciation is rising from a blue day.
Revolution has been rising with crescendo.
Memory is going decrescendo with a cup of coffee.
Oriented one voice is matching one breathing.
Navigation on blue sea is up and down.
You and I are singing together in harmony.
-Soony Seo

Corinthians13.4-7
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniguity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all thing, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

One spoon of dust in the window left day and day.
The breezy wind knocked a small window over and over.
It is raining in my window on and on

One spoon of sunshine read the book of love day and day.
Moon light of window stays with star night after night.
It's raining in my window drop by drop.

-Soony Seo

I am in green spring.
I hear a sound of green wind whispering.
Small lights from light bugs dancing.
The green grasses are lying with my green step wandering.

I am in green heart beating.
I want to sing a song touching my being.
Small lights from light bugs just lightening.
The green trees are standing with my green breathing.

Mysterious Brain

It is very important to know the brain’s activity in solving problems. We have one brain physically, but we can use it with different styles psychologically. Since our living styles are complex, solutions are needed by creativity and methodical approach by situation. I want to compare both sides of the brain which has emotional and logical rooms.

First, you have to make people happy for business. According to this article, the author, Tyler Cowen(2006), described that it is important to know how people make decisions. New economists, neuro economists, are interested in studying how emotions influence on our choice. People think about prospective benefits and enjoy the feeling of risk when they are in a “positive arousal state”, while they use different brain modules and become more anxious when they think about costs. For example, when you gamble, you can see flashing lights and riming bells to make an illusion in your mind. Eventually, you will spend your money with a positive thought of a good investment. But if you are now considering investing your money in a risky business, your brain will work with analytical approach. Your brain has both positive and negative aspects for solving problems. It is clear that people are not consistent or fully rational decision makers. So, investors are becoming interested in the moneymaking potential of neuro economics. It is necessary to monitor people’s thinking in business world. For example, Wal-Mart strategy is “Everyday low price”; this advertisement makes consumer happy, so Wal-Mart reaches a successful story in business world. When people stop smiling, you have to adjust to their adrenaline levels or make different kinds of eye contact.

Second, you had better enjoy either creative or methodical ideas in brain for solving your problem. According to this article, “ Where do the big ideas come from?” the brain acts differently just before “aha!” moment revelation. When we face the problem, we all approach problems two ways; we sometimes approach analytically and sometimes we wait for that “aha” moment. Some of the problems are best solved methodically, but some more need insightful, creative solutions. Maybe human brain maybe pre-programmed to be either creative or analytical at any given moment. Some problems are better solved with methodical, analytical reasoning, and some lend them selves better to waiting for the “aha” moment. Certain types of problems it’s likely that using an insight strategy may give you an advantage. For example, when you make surgery to the patient, you don‘t need a creative approach to do surgery. It needs just skillful surgery for patient. If you have to make wave in your business items, you have to use your creative brain for unique productions such as brainstorming, mind map.

Human beings have a mysterious brain to think. We are able to think, feel with our brain. Roughly saying we have two rooms in our brain. One room controls emotional feelings, another room controls logical thinking. In terms of attitude, our brain sometimes stays positive side, sometimes negative side. So, we sometimes try to approach to the problem by a creative thinking or mythological thinking.
