monthly collection

2_Put your writing first where you want to reach.

A sentence collection and monthly diary written on the first day of March as soon as February ends.

For the first time, I honestly met the deadline.

Although I am the one who makes the deadline and receives it.

Saying goodbye to February 2022

I had the impression that it wasn’t very good, but

When I think back over my twenty-eight days, there were some pretty good moments.

In the end, it is my greed.

There will never be another month filled with only days that I like.

The gloomy sky clears and languid sunlight pours in through the window.

Like today, I listen to music, think, read and write.

I wish I had more time.


-.To me, a marketer is a storyteller who creates and shares experiences and values ​​while creating sustainable consumption, rather than someone who simply carries out promotional activities to sell something. A person who discovers, connects, expands, and shares stories. This is a person who elicits empathy.

-.I learned a lot through Twitter, but the best of them is, ‘Others have the freedom to misunderstand me, and I have no obligation to explain it.’ Words that I will ponder over for the rest of my life.

-. However, while reading my prose collection, I felt that I was somewhat distant from the person I used to know. Some people said with a slight smile that I seemed like a better person in the article than I was in real life.

After hearing that story and thinking about it, I think I let the writing go first to where I wanted to reach. I think I portrayed myself in my writing as a more just and merciful person than I am now. And I thought that I had been trying hard in my life to get even a little closer to the image I had depicted in my writing, and that that was the life I was living while writing. I think I will probably continue to write like that in the future. I want to write good poetry and good prose. So I want to become a better person.

-.it’s important to remember that progress is not a straight line. The ups and downs that come with working on achieving something is normal, and any stumbles along the way aren’t setbacks, but opportunities to learn, grow, and improve. But every journey has to start with a first step, so take some time this month to figure out what you want your focus for the year to be, and begin your 2022 journey mindfully and intentionally.

-. The poet said that he absolutely hates people who quote passages from noble books, considering them like insects. But who isn’t an insect? <Anyway, I am destined to die. That is the ending. Therefore, a diary is writing without an ending. By doing unfinished actions every day, I confirm that nothing is finished.> I will definitely quote this passage from Eugene Mok.

A city dweller’s day is endlessly busy, his mind is even more busy, he cannot forgive himself, and he is at odds with life. Above all, although I often pretend to be the protagonist of a new drama, I am neither a poet nor a painter, so I cannot create anything using my habitual anxiety and depression as fuel. The saddest thing is that it is just useless grief.

-.When we recognize that everything changes, our fixed desires start to feel less urgent. What a relief.

-.Whiskey is the best drink to drink, especially when you are alone and quietly listening to music late at night. The beer is too thin, the wine is too elegant, the martini is too pretentious, the brandy feels a little tidy… so I have no choice but to take out a bottle of whiskey.

-.Have you even listened to New Wave? You really like a variety of genres.

“I listen a bit greedily. When it comes to music, I can’t keep up with even the slightest gap. If I haven’t listened to new music for about three or four years, I can’t connect well with music these days. No matter what I listen to, it all sounds the same. So, to prevent that from happening, I developed a habit of listening without leaving any gaps.”

by Haruki Murakami

-.”If it comes to answering, there are a lot of times when I don’t answer either. It’s beneficial to keep my mouth shut. When people insult me, there’s no use talking, so I just close my mouth and stare and think. Then, Miss Minchin’s face turns red, Miss Amelia gets scared, and the other women flinch. People know that people who don’t get angry easily are stronger. They know how to control their anger. Knowing means being strong. People who get angry easily can end up saying foolish things that they will later regret, but what is stronger than that is holding back anger. I would rather not deal with people like that.
