Adapted from 오빠's minihomphy:

일이 즐거우면
인생은 낙원이다.
일이 의무에 불과하면
인생은 지옥이다.
-고리키

When the work is a pleasure,
life is a joy!
When the work is duty,
life is slavery.
- Maxim Gorky

There might be some translations difference in korean but the rough meaning is the same.

Another quote from Maxim Gorky:

"Politics is the seedbed of social enmity, evil suspicions, shameless lies, morbid ambitions, and disrespect for the individual. Name anything bad in man, and it is precisely in the soil of political struggle that it grows with abundance."

This morning when I woke up, he was already gone. Despite knowing this day will sure bound to come, but the sadness is still overwhelming. Having accompanied us for 9 years, his presence is definitely important.

Everytime when we are upset or happy, he is the one there for us. However, there is nothing much we could do for him. No matter what, I wished that he would rest in peace, to a place without suffering. He will always be in my heart & memories.
