mind.\u003cbr\u003e Everyone dreams of a happy life, but real life blossoms in the cracks where happiness and anxiety coexist.\u003cbr\u003e Through desperate self-confession and reflection, the author confronts his inner wounds and regains the strength to live again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This book is the story of one man who learned to stop instead of holding on, to defend himself instead of giving up.\u003cbr\u003e The author, who had been working tirelessly for a long time to become a lawyer, asks himself one day:\u003cbr\u003e Am I living my life true to myself now?\u003cbr\u003e The question frees him from the anxiety, guilt, and worldly standards that have been weighing him down, and allows him to find his own path.\u003cbr\u003e His choice of peace over perfection, of the breath of everyday life over achievement, awakens in us the courage to live true to ourselves.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003eYou can preview some of the book's contents.\u003cbr\u003e

must have been harboring a long dream for over 50 years to make one bucket list come true.\u003cbr\u003e In my mother's life, Montmartre Hill was probably not just a tourist destination.\u003cbr\u003e It was a goal that embodied her long-held desire and perseverance, and it was like a faint light that helped her endure the hardships of life.\u003cbr\u003e Having a goal is a beautiful thing, but on the other hand, the fact that it is the final destination that we reach after walking for so long was somewhat sad for me, the son.\u003cbr\u003e --- pp.25-26\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhenever I see the small letters that say 'Haeundae Reading Salon' posted on the door, I feel a strange and overwhelming sense that this is a small world I created.\u003cbr\u003e When I open the door, a familiar air mixed with the smell of old books and coffee greets me.\u003cbr\u003e In the room, which is filled with white bookshelves, the books we read together are neatly arranged.\u003cbr\u003e Twelve hand-picked, old desks are neatly arranged in the living room, and they are always cleaned and tidied before each meeting.\u003cbr\u003e Piano music or soft jazz music filling the empty space, a warm cup of coffee in hand.\u003cbr\u003e In that quiet moment, I feel a sense of peace, as if the world has stopped.\u003cbr\u003e Sometimes the time spent preparing for a meeting is more precious and poignant.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I often ask newcomers to my book club why they read.\u003cbr\u003e The answers that come back are mostly similar.\u003cbr\u003e Because I don't read books alone, for self-development, because I have a favorite author, etc. \u003cbr\u003eI've heard the same answer countless times over the past six years.\u003cbr\u003e But the answer I heard recently was a little different.\u003cbr\u003e A member who had just turned 30 straightened his back and said:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “My boss at work is very harsh with his words.\u003cbr\u003e “I want to read some books and gain some knowledge so I can beat him.”\u003cbr\u003e It was refreshing to learn that the reason you read a book might be to win over someone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- p.104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When I was considering becoming a full-time writer, no one could have predicted where that life would end.\u003cbr\u003e People who have succeeded in what they love will tell you to do what you want to do, while those who have failed will advise you to find a stable job.\u003cbr\u003e But there is a catch to these words.\u003cbr\u003e They have already experienced the consequences of their choices.\u003cbr\u003e It's like stock analysis.\u003cbr\u003e What we want is a stock price prediction, but experts only come up with plausible analyses after the results are out. \u003cbr\u003eThere is no right answer to any decision regarding the future.\u003cbr\u003e This means that all advice may be wrong.\u003cbr\u003e Advice is for 'reference only'.\u003cbr\u003e The most important thing is your own choice.\u003cbr\u003e Fortunately, we make most of our own decisions.\u003cbr\u003e Through the results, I am constantly learning about life and creating my own standards for making choices.\u003cbr\u003e --- pp.111-112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I don't have a good relationship with my mother.\u003cbr\u003e This fact sometimes makes me hate myself.\u003cbr\u003e I have a suspicion that I, who believed myself to be a warm person, may actually be a hypocrite.\u003cbr\u003e Every time I become blunt with my mother, her suspicions deepen.\u003cbr\u003e My mother often expresses her disappointment directly.\u003cbr\u003e “Do you know that I had a hard time studying in Seoul?\u003cbr\u003e Everyone in the neighborhood pointed fingers at us for sending our children to school despite our circumstances.\u003cbr\u003e I endured it anyway, and did everything I could.\u003cbr\u003e That's what I want to say.\" \u003cbr\u003eWhenever I hear things like this, I always feel uneasy.\u003cbr\u003e I was foolish to have taken my mother's words at face value, as she always said everything was fine.\u003cbr\u003e If you had been honest with me, I would have gone to a university near my house instead of in Seoul.\u003cbr\u003e When I think about how my parents might have suffered a little less if I had done so, I feel a deep sense of guilt.\u003cbr\u003e --- pp.155-156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e What's most important to me is what works best for me.\u003cbr\u003e All I can give you are questions, not answers.\u003cbr\u003e What kind of life do I want, what does a day that suits me look like, can that work fill me, and if so, what am I hesitating about?\u003cbr\u003e If you run too fast, you might miss the answer right in front of you.\u003cbr\u003e Sometimes you have to stop to see things.\u003cbr\u003e Today too, I went to work as late as possible and left work as early as possible. \u003cbr\u003eThe commute to work is still as heavy as when I was a child, throwing a tantrum because I didn't want to go to kindergarten, and work hours aren't always enjoyable.\u003cbr\u003e Nevertheless, by the time I get off work, I think I've had a good day.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e ---

'stop'\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We are always surrounded by the words, 'don't give up'.\u003cbr\u003e But sometimes it takes more courage to let go than to hold on.\u003cbr\u003e This book began with that in mind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I remember the day I first received the author's manuscript.\u003cbr\u003e He realized that the dream he had long cherished was no longer bringing him happiness, so he boldly changed the direction of his life.\u003cbr\u003e Looking at him, I felt that those who firmly believed in themselves even in moments of despair were stronger than those who just blindly ran forward. \u003cbr\u003eThe author's confession that \"I won't hold on any longer\" but at the same time \"I will now live my life as myself\" was a testament to great courage and resonance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This book is not simply a healing essay that simply recites comforting words.\u003cbr\u003e It is a sincere journey of one person who honestly admits what he can no longer handle and sets out to find direction in life again.\u003cbr\u003e I hope that the author's honesty and purity will provide a small measure of courage to those who have tried their best but failed to reach their ideals, and to those who feel a vague fear in the face of new challenges.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFound in the fragments of everyday

read, it quietly seeps into the cracks in your heart, making you look at life a little more gently.\u003cbr\u003e The sentence he wrote is a comma and a person's 'runaway practice'. \u003cbr\u003eThis book doesn't contain any flashy success stories or dramatic twists, but it does contain sentences that will gently embrace the old lump in someone's heart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e
