Into the book
My loss determines my identity.
It may not be everything to me, but it determines a huge part of my identity.
Because my loss is my story.
I try to go beyond just harboring sadness and try to redeem it.
--- From "With Those Sitting on the Bench of Lamentation at the West Gate"

Must we always mask our suffering? Shouldn't we sometimes allow others to glimpse into our suffering? I will look at the world with tearful eyes.
Then you will be able to see things that you could not see before with dry eyes.
--- From the first story, “Even if flowers wither, their fragrance remains.”

Just as every death has its own characteristics, the grief over the same death is also different.
The essence (inscape) of sorrow is different.
Therefore, each person's dynamic grief must be resolved on their own without the intervention of others' judgment.

--- From "The Second Story: Wounded Love Becomes a Special Love"

Even in suffering we resemble God.
Perhaps this thought is what makes our hearts so cold.
Are we also made in God's image in the way we suffer?
--- From "The Third Story: The Mourner Dreams of a New Day"

It also emphasizes that sighing in the midst of suffering is not a sign of weakness, but rather a privilege of saints who live honestly in their relationship with God.
