published 38 years later, is “Like a Camellia, When Blooming and When Falling.”\u003cbr\u003e That practitioner, who was as small and delicate as a dandelion in spring, has now, after a long time, become a camellia flower that looks up at the sky after eating the salt of patience. \u003cbr\u003eEven in the winter of life, I am living diligently on this southern seashore as a cheerful and energetic Camellia Sister who knows how to smile brightly and not feel the cold.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ―From “The Poet’s Words”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Consisting of seven parts, 『Like a

suffering, shown through a seven-part structure\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e『Like a Camellia Flower When Blooming or Falling』 is composed of seven parts: ‘The Taste of Joy,’ ‘The Monastery’s Breakfast Table,’ ‘Sunshine Diary,’ ‘Diary of a Sad Day,’ ‘Are You Sick Too?,’ ‘A Letter Written in Poetry,’ and ‘The Gift of Everyday Life That Made Poetry Bloom.’\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The first chapter, 'The Taste of Joy,' is a collection of poems that sing of the small and precious joys hidden in everyday life.\u003cbr\u003e We find and name the joy and gratitude that lies dormant in the seemingly common clouds, flower petals, rivers, and every moment of the day from the moment we open our eyes in the morning to the moment we close our eyes in the evening.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The second chapter, 'Breakfast Table in the Monastery', contains psalms dedicated to faith by Sister Hae-in Lee, who has been on a journey of monasticism for half a century.\u003cbr\u003e A confession like “Until I myself collapse in complete silence\/I will live loving you more\/Please be my salvation\/My place to believe\/My place to hide\/” (“Silent Love”) fully reveals the inner self of a seeker. \u003cbr\u003eThe third chapter, 'Sunshine Diary', sings of the power of hope that is not lost even in sadness.\u003cbr\u003e In her book, “Hope is Awake,” published in 2010, Sister Lee Hae-in conveyed the message that hope does not come on its own, and that it must be called out and awakened to become ours.\u003cbr\u003e The sadness that grows within us makes us ask ourselves, “Can I just live like this? \/ Can I not be ashamed?” (“On My Seventy-Year-Old Birthday”), but the hope that must be called and awakened despite this makes us love and forgive more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The fourth chapter, 'Diary of a Sad Day', contains longing for people who have left and the time that has passed. \u003cbr\u003eWe hear of the death of a friend we used to live with, witness the deaths of countless people in accidents far away, and miss our mothers who passed away long ago. However, longing ultimately reminds us of the preciousness of ordinary happiness and allows us to accept the loss through true mourning.\u003cbr\u003e The fifth chapter, “Are You Sick Too?” poignantly portrays the suffering of Sister Hae-in Lee, who began her battle with cancer after undergoing surgery in 2008.\u003cbr\u003e Although we may feel angry and sad because of the unbearable pain, physical pain awakens the sense of life that we are alive today when we open our eyes in the morning and makes us accept the ordinary things we did without a problem as miracles.\u003cbr\u003e Also included in this chapter is the poem \"Writing a Will,\" written by Sister Hae-in Lee about her thoughts on the day she had her will notarized. It is a piece of writing that evokes a sense of solemnity in the reader.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe sixth chapter, 'Letters Written in Poetry', contains poems dedicated to Pope Francis, who visited Korea last August, poems in memory of Chiara Lubich, who passed away in 2008, and poems addressed to readers who have given up on life.\u003cbr\u003e The last chapter, 'The Gift of Everyday Life That Made Poetry Bloom', is a collection of 100 diary entries from January 1, 2011 to October 30, 2014, arranged in chronological order.\u003cbr\u003e The diary, which neatly describes the daily scenery, contains various thoughts that can be felt as a human being.\u003cbr\u003e The daily resolutions, the joy felt at seeing flowers, the fear of the pain brought on by illness, the longing for the departed, and the reflections on preparing for the end of life come across in a gentle and poignant way. \u003cbr\u003eAmong them, the diary entry from October 30, 2014, which records text messages exchanged with the mother of Choi Deok-ha, a student from Danwon High School who died in the Sewol Ferry disaster, contains the story of those who must endure the days that flow mercilessly despite unbearable sorrow.\u003cbr\u003e The words of one who has discovered life beyond suffering will resonate with the hearts of readers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 70th birthday, 50th anniversary of membership, 30 years of eyesight\u003cbr\u003e The power of hope every day\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Sister Hae-in Lee has been loved for her clear and emotional poetry for over 30 years.\u003cbr\u003e His clear language teaches readers, weary of life, how to breathe deeply and broadly.\u003cbr\u003e Like opening a window wide to let in some fresh air, Sister Hae-in's words clear up the stale air of life, giving us the generosity to breathe properly, think slowly, and offer comfort to others who are hurting.\u003cbr\u003e That leisure will be a gift of life that blesses those who have endured times of suffering.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e『Like a Camellia, When Blooming and When Withering』, which takes readers back to his half-century journey as a poet and monk, will reveal to readers a peak of his life as a poet and monk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The end of my life\/when, where, and in what form will it take\/I thought about it all night\/and fell asleep\/\/When I opened my eyes in the morning\/I was once again\/in a world where I was alive!\/\/I opened the door that the morning had opened\/and prepared to love\/Asking for the courage\/to become a victor of love\/stronger than death\/and never again\/to fear death\/Asking for wisdom\/I laugh out loud\/I become light\/like a bird singing brightly\u003cbr\u003e ―Full text of \"A Day's Thoughts 1\" \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e -
