We Are The Champions!/Lee, Hahn Joong
Dear Friends,
Just a last reminder
Just a last word of encouragement
That we are the champs!
In our life long marathon game of life that
We started from wherever may be back in Korea.
Who said "Life is short"?
Life has been long enough for us.
Suffering has been long enough for us.
Silly games have been long enough for us.
Good Lord created time and space.
Good Lord created us and provided us time and space.
In that time and space we had to find our destiny, purpose,
In the midst of games of survival.
We had to utilize the best of intelligence, judgement,
perseverance, and willpower to follow the distant, dim light
That we didn't know where it's coming from most of the time.
Yet we managed to follow it to the end.
And here we are wherever we are now
Near our destination.
We can see the road ahead us.
We can see the days ahead of us,
Although each day is full of surprises,
Good or bad,
But the outcome is always the same.
It doesn't make any difference to us.
All Good Lord wants us to do is
Truly to live each moment full
Truly to love everything, everyone, every neighbor,
Truly, truly, and truly.
Only then HE seems to promise that
We will get there, our destination, OK.
Safely, satisfactorily, happily,
With smiles on our face on our deathbeds
While listening to Beethoven's No. 9 symphony,
Worthy of the champions that we are
While never forgetting to thank HIm for all HIS help,
While never forgetting HE loves us all.
Dear Friends,
Just a last reminder.
Just a last word of encouragement
That we are the champs!
In our life long marathon game of life that
We started from wherever may be back in Korea.

Amen. I liked it. You are a genuine poet, Dr.Lee!

Your Love toward us,
Your depth of Sprituality,
Your Sincerity of the Faith,
and mostly,
Your affection toward the Life as whole
would be greatly appreciated!

Your kind words, Drs. Ohn and Hwang, my two champs,
are greatly appreciated and thanked.
All of us realize, I believe, that we are at a point in our life
we could use a steady diet of encouragement from friends.

Heart warming tribute to us,lives, the generation of SNUMC grad.in US.
A part of History, to be remembered and well depicted.
Thank you

Thank you, Dr. Choh.
You said it precisely.
It is a tribute to us, our lives, a compelling story of
the transplanted SNUCMAA grads in USA,
we should all unabashedly be proud of.

To be a true champion, we got to put a nice finishing touch (유종의 미) to our life at the end.
Aside from what we have worked on in our field, we got to figure out the final gold trophy,
whatever form or style it may be for each of us.
We should not get too obsessed with wealth, honor, and glamor
but try to find the true maturity, happiness, peace, and satisfaction that are truly our own.

worth repeating "...try to find the true maturity, happiness, peace, and satisfaction that
are truly our own."
Thank you, WM.

I wrote this poem out of my love for my friends on this page
and in my life journey,
while cleaning my place, while meditating, while listening to Vivaldi.
I love you all
