From Sea to Ocean to Tree, to the home of the HoneyBee,
Happy Thanksgiving to All.
I thank God for cleansing my soul,
for "preparing a table before me in the Presence
of my enemies,"
for giving back my desire to care,
to love my dear neighbors and Even
my enemies.
As E.T. gave back to Eliot
the warm fireplace of the heart...
his ability to empathize with others...
love, love, and love which Christ cherished and crystallized and centered,
to tell people exactly who they were and Face
their being.
There are some Americans
who know exactly what a Korean is
more than Koreans
and will form and shape Koreans in their image
until a Korean becomes a totally generic thing,
a lifeless being made out of inflation, dullness, and hatred
Let me not associated with such Americans.
Thanksgiving for all my prayers to you my Lord
which you have listened to.
So much pain and chaos was in me,
I tried to be American in the ancient Greek sense:
Athletic, an excellent student, well=wounded (I mean
rounded), popular with girls and well-liked by all foreigners.
I ended up being a Pretender dragged down by unbounded insecurity and hatred.
Thank you Lord for
listening to my prayers,
answering my prayers,
loving me for who I was and giving me the courage and strength
to donate a Jewish Synogogue and battered women.
Lord, make me more like the being you want me to be,
help downgrade this desire for swift pleasure,
fill me with the well of your ever-refreshening waters,
still my mind and soul and make me see you.
Thank you Lord for always being with me.
I also thank all the women who have taught me and encouraged me.
Lastly, I thank the Turkey
for being a willing sacrifice.
