Book Introduction
"What word came to you today?"
Microwave, stairs, ramen, wristwatch…
Ordinary words that are always around us but are often invisible.
The author, a soldier and father of two, wrote every morning for 100 days:
I began a special journey, encountering one word.
Discover the irony of war and peace in 'Microwave Oven',
Reading the cycle of life in the rotation of the 'washing machine',
The simplicity of 'ramen' unfolds the philosophy of diversity.
From an honest confession that he mistook 'ground spider' for a spider crawling on the ground,
Even vivid parenting stories, such as the evening “Twilight War” with children.
It's okay if you don't have any special experiences or grand topics.
That even just a single, ordinary word around us can create a profound story.
To you who feels like each day passes similarly,
To you who wants to write something but hesitates in the face of uncertainty,
This book offers quiet but definite comfort and courage.
100 words, 100 stories.
And I'm waiting for the 101st story you'll create.
