Postscript

For me 2 hours or so of writing 'Wanderlust' was more precious than anything else. Writing it, I often said to myself," Deprived of this task, I would be meaningless and, what is called, just a walking shadow". With some subjects for it in the mind every day, I could be happy to do other things, even monotonous and trifling. And I was happy to have a dream that someday Jaden, my grandson, in LA, to whom I sent emails as follows,would understand how much his grandfather loved him. 

Jaden;

This is your grandfather in Masan.
Your Grand father was happy to talk over phone with you and your mother and father.
Your grandfather was happy again to see several images of you reading a book,

drawing a picture,and playing football game on the ground.
I (Your grandfather) would be happier if  I got  a email (or emails)  back from you.
Have a good day, Jaden
From your grandfather in Masan.

 

Hi, Jaden;
How are you ?
How is your condition, today?
This is your grandfather,
getting worried about your injured arm.
Your Grandmother said that
because of the bandaged arm ,
you became the center of interest  at the preschool yesterday.
Grandmother said that
your friends got much interested in your bandaged arm.
Is that true?

Grandfather is thinking of Jaden, your mother and father,
And also Dongshik, the dog in your house.
Does the dog  like to play with you, Jaden?
Your grandfather was happy last spring
to play with Jaden and Dongshik in the garden of your house.

These days, do you like to read books
together with your mother and father ?
What is the name of the book you like very much?

Grandfather wants to share emails with you, Jaden
and also hope that Jaden will email to grandfather someday

Grandfather
in Masan,
