Love story : Dee and Dang

My Love, Noo-Dang, knows how difficult the past two weeks have been. Yes, I’ve been here for two weeks…. sometimes, it feels like two years. Like I said, it’s been difficult.

I’ve found myself struggling more than I would have expected, and sometimes I’ve felt like I was lossing the battle. Day after day, I would talk to my darling Dang, and I would cry about this, and moan about that. I was so focused on my pain that I was forgetting the other things.

I’ve really been thinking a lot today. Korea has been tough, and my job requires a lot from me. But, life is tough. Life requires a lot too, especially when you are starting a life with someone else. Somewhere, I lost sight of that.

Rather than cry about life’s difficulties…. I should deal with them…. deal with them and focus on the joys. And there are so many joys to focus on and celebrate. Dang provides me with countless moments of happiness and endless joy.

When I am tired and stressed, I should realize that these are just a part of life. Accept that they are there, but don’t whine endlessly about them…… it doesn’t help, anyway. Not only that, it brings a burden to those you love.

Dang, I’m sorry that I had to learn that after we fell in love. I would have like to have done so prior.

I love you mama….. I’m going to make the best of Korea…. for us.
