여명/배 중진

 

남들과 소통하면서
경험을 공유하면서
누구보다 빠르게
자기만의 아성을 쌓아가는 사람이 있지만

 

혼자 끙끙대며
궁리하며
좌절하면서도
실낱같은 한 가닥의 희망을 놓지 않는 사람도 있지요

 

답답해 보이지만
뭔가 집념이 그 사람을 무섭고도 아름답게 만듭니다
존경하게 만듭니다

 

성공하면 좋지만
설사 꿈을 이루지 못한다고 하여도
그 과정이 중요하고
언젠가는 해 뜰 날도 있겠지요

결과보다도 과정이 존경받는 세상이
더 좋은 세상이라 생각합니다.
어려서부터 공부를 잘하는 어린이는
잘못도 용서받으며 자라납니다.
이게 부조리의 기점은 아닐까 생각해 봅니다.

고운 블친 님, 안녕하세요 ? 반갑습니다.
겨울이 오는 길목에서 소설이 지나니
조석으로는 쌀쌀하여 주야간 일교차가
심하니 건강관리에 유의하시길 바랍니다.
