Monologue of a 70-year-old
Description
Book Introduction
Having a good relationship with myself is something I like,
What I love,
Where I want to go,
I know what I want to do.
The author left for Seoul, where he had no connections, at a young age, not even in his twenties, because he hated being hungry.
I left my hometown at a young age and lived a life of great suffering and humiliation, complaining that the world was unfair, but thankfully, there was something fair about it, and I found great comfort in that: the simple truth that everyone who is born must face death.
The author reveals in the prologue that he looked back on his life of over 70 years without knowing why he should live, just as he did not know why people were born, and that he wrote down the life he had lived in detail because he had reached an age where it would not be strange if he died at any time.
The author lived two years beyond the age of 70.
Now, let's look back on the path of life.
This book is a collection of 33 small mirrors reflecting the author's life.
The author has never studied philosophy or humanities, but the content of this book is not knowledge, but a monologue about the author's life, a monologue in which the author tells himself that he has endured well and lived well, despite using his body recklessly like a hoe.
Looking back on the author's life, we discussed the topics that the author realized, considered important, and lived by.
Through this book, author Jeong Beom-seok concludes that there is nothing in the world more precious than oneself.
