a joyful post, @slowwalker.

There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour.

These are the wise words of Solomon in Ecclesiastes. Solomon had everything a man could possibly imagine yet he knew it was all vain if his life lacked purpose.

Your visit to the Donghaksa Temple was a journey in search of knowledge, but as you returned and enjoyed a simple meal with your mother, you realized the simple pleasure of living is one of God's great gifts.

Enjoy the life you are given, @slowwalker, and be thankful for the close relationship you have with your mother, because this too is a blessing.

Lovely photos today, my friend
