i feel the earth moved deep in my heart so heavy it breaks me apart i want to rest and find relief clean-up my way and rectify false belief
to carry the heaviest of weight my mind will fight, my thoughts could defeat and once the stiffest trials get light i can carry the burden with utmost pride
strong honeyed calls of temptation to sin could defy man’s resistance to give-in prayers in mind will thwart the roaring tempest wind could resist the strongest perfumed baits of sins
so stand up and carry the fight against the darkness that rules the mystery of the night evils will be brought to a bright daylight to surrender the power of their might
now i can breath with total sweetness from the bitter taste of the ruinous kisses with the Lord, my heart will no longer be pinned to carry the world even the toughest straws of the wind…
During our trip to Seoul, South Korea, our itinerary included a local Korean restaurant for lunch. Bibimbap was on the menu. We were excited to taste the Korean food to be served on a very low table, maybe a foot in height. First to be served was the portable butane stove. Next was the ingredients for the Bibimbap. Then the waitress left and stood a few feet from us and waited for our additional orders. We looked at each other and whispered , “What are we going to do with that?” The waitress sensed that we were tourists in the city and observed us for a minute. Ha, ha,ha ! Nothing has been done with the bacon-thinned pork and the veggies. So, I called her to please help us do the cooking. She started with a smile and did the explanation in Korean which we never understood a single word she uttered. Only her body language helped us to understand her show. When all was finished and devoured the delicious food, our tour guide who left us earlier to eat her own meal in another room showed up. “Did you enjoy your Korean meal? … “Of course, we love it”
This is our table ,so low, we have to sit on the floor…

All the vegetables, mushrooms, and steak can be prepared up to 1 day ahead of time. You need to re-heat each component in the wok, or skillet, before serving. Gochujang can be found in the Asian section of most well-stocked supermarkets, or at Asian food markets, or online. Long-grain rice, or Jasmine rice are good substitutes for the traditional short-grain rice. Just follow the cooking time according to package directions.
