DECISION  

One decision can make your LIFE better. 


Do you think you are good at making a right decision? I think I am not. Mabye a lot of people might not answer the question for confidently that they are good at. That means making a decision is one of the haredest part in your life. By making a right decision, your Life can go well and same time it can be easy to live in this world. 


I just wanna share One Of the North Korean Defector's story that how he got succeed in South Korea. His name is SeongJin Lee and he is from very north part of Ham-gyeong province. Back in 2007 he had escaped North Korea by himself when he was 18 years old. Back then his family in North Korea, they were starving for food. He had an elder sister, grandma, father and mother. Even his parents do hard work for government they still have lack of food. At that time Seongjin didn't really understant why they have to be starving for food. There was always question mark for it. Sometime in 2007 he finally made a decision to get out of NK(North Korea) as soon as possible. Becasue he was thinking that if he escapes NK and go to rich country then he was able to help his family. This is how his journey has started. He just made one of the biggest decision in his life. The decision he made was bring him to the freedom from NK. When he got in to China, he was amazed about everything he was facing. Some how he got to know someone who can help him to go South Korea. After few months he could resettle in South Korea. 

Seoul in South Korea

1. He made a right decision and the decision made him to set free. Of course it wasn't eay for him to resettle in South Korea. There were so many difficulties waiting for him. Even he faced every moment with a difficulty he didn't regret about his decision to escape from NK. Beacuse He had a faith that he can make it to be succeed. (At this point I would like to say never regret about your decision. I strongly believe that if you have a faith about your decision then you can get succeed. Don't give up until you will be succeed.) After resettle in South Korea he tried many things for money. Only he was thinking that he had to save some money and sent it to his family in NK. Finally he could save some money and he was able to help his parents. But time goes by he felt boredness about earning money. For him there was limit to save money with out education. He thought with out good education, it is very hard to make a money. He noticed if you don't have any good education then you have to do hard work entire your life time. After realization he made second biggest decision to go to University in South Korea. So He was prepared for 2 years in order to go university. 

2. He made a second right decision about to go university. He told me that going to university is most hardest decision he never had in his life before. Beacuse if he get into university then no time for work. That means he could not earn any moeny for surviving. But he made decision to get into university only with a confidence. Also he told me there was only thing that he has to do is going to university. He thought good education can change his life get better. Some point finally he could get into university in Seoul, South Korea. When he was starting study he only focuced on his study. Even he didn't care about the money. Time goes by he had a trouble about the money. Beacuse there was no money left for him to continue to study.(I just wanna mention something at this point. Even you have a trouble, hardship and most difficult things you never had before please don't give up. Beacuse there is always hope and a way that you can overcome) When he was struggling for finance stuff, there was somesone appeared in his life to help him. That was how he continue to study. A few years ago, finally he could graduate from university. Now he is working for good company and he is on process for making his life even get better. I am sure that God surely was working in his life. and I just wish him good luck in his journey in this world.   


As I am a christian I really want to mention about God. There is a word of God from Proverbs chapter 1: 7. it says "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction". As bible says, you must know about God. There is nothing that over come knowledge from God. Also don't deceive yourslef. Even you think that you made something good decision via your on thinking, you must know it's not you. God already has had a plan for it. I just don't want you to be a fool. Just remember that fools despise wisdom and instruction.
