forever imperfect, but forever me

Recently, I borrowed a book as there was a long holiday break.
I happened to grab a book titled " Jia "
It was actually a book of North Koreans, true story.
At first, it was interesting
Although I do not take history, but I cannot deny my amazement or interest in learning all the history (Okay, I would have take history if it weren't for those scary stories my teacher used to say -.-)

As I read on, I feel for Jia
I felt as if I was the main character and I was struggling to survive every other day
I was like in a war, never knowing when I would leave
Never knowing the new found friend I had made might leave me anytime
Never knowing if I could see my family
All these uncertainity gripped me with fear
Indeed, in such luxurious life we had now, thanks to technology and all sorts
We never had experienced such.. fear
Im thankful that war was less common as it had in the past.
Everyone seems to seek to resolve the issue or problem the best way without violence
And, Im thankful.
Im thankful that we never had to experience major loss of loved ones except when they had too as they grew older or fall sick.
The story, it was so so sad.. Its like you're alone in the world
During those point of times, you would reallyy wonder why are you struggling to survive for when the life you are leading is comparable to death.
Her determination had gotten my respect

I have to say, it's really really a book worth for all to read
It's an eye opener, for all of us, those living in such comforts to experience a new world
And maybe for once be thankful for what God has given you

Im grateful that I had the chance to read this book (:
