The paintbrush that has been passed down for generations,
it became a sword for overcoming hardships in my life.
The light finally shines into my life,
and now, I'm trying to make my dreams come true.
I've been wondering for many years
what the scenery can look like from there.
I’m surprised by the magnificence of the scenery
spreading in front of me.
Also I understands there is a different landscape ahead from here.
"Are you going to grab the things you see ahead?"
I can hear my grandfather's voice from the heaven.
I truly afraid of it.
My life is reaching to the end.
The blade of my sword which used to be solid,
has began to be nicked...
Even so,
“You don't have so much time left”,
he whispers to me.
In spring, plants bloom spring flowers,
and in autumn they become fruitful.
While doing my best to draw the most beautiful things
that God made on the earth.
I am sure that I will continue to devote myself.
