For instance,
it's not that any one subject like English or math matters,
but rather, it's about facing the college entrance exam with overall problem-solving ability...
My dream, or what I want to do, is
not to be a barista-owner running a cafe,
nor a fashion designer making custom clothes,
nor
someone who sits gracefully painting,
nor an artist who carries expensive gear around to take photos.
When I feel the need, when I think I should do it, I just step toward it right then.
I just stir what's been done so far and what's coming so they don't go off track,
and rather than thinking about timing and circumstances ahead of the thoughts and passion I want to act on,
I just go out to find the role I can play from where I stand right now.
It's just that, more than succeeding at work or my role, or achieving some grand ambition called a specific dream,
I'd just rather be the older brother everyone in the neighborhood knows well, and sometimes the younger brother who actually gets it.
Just live like that for a while,
and become a beloved husband, a warm father, and a grandfather who never loses his composure.
And after a long, long stretch of time -
on some quiet, secluded hill
together with the wife I love, I just want to drift away gently - as a single handful of breeze...
