Early Birthday to Bro!

YEAR 2009: When we were still young and playful

Do you have siblings? If you do, no matter what kind of situations you are in with your siblings, be it rough, argued, not contacting, loving, very close etc etc, I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that there are few things in life which you cannot afford to let go; one of them is your siblings.

Celebrated bro's birthday a few days earlier today as he'll be back to uni during his birthday. It's his 21st birthday! Rather than throwing a super big "welcome to adulthood" celebration, we actually had a small calm dinner with some of our relatives.

I just want to say that I'm so grateful and proud to have you as my brother. I love the gist of constantly inspiring each other and pushing each other to do better at what we are doing. I like the fact that we hold onto the same beliefs in a lot of things although there'll still be things which we are not so in-sync with, I'm not as green as you and obviously you're not as korean as me. 

But I guessed the same factor we have is that we constantly pursue what we are passionate with and we believe in the power of empowering and inspiring people around us. For that, I'm so proud that we are siblings.

No doubt our favourite quote would always be from one of our fave movie, Coach Carter:
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
At the age of 20 you have been achieving numerous successes in life and have gained valuable experiences around the world. Let's continue to strive for greater heights in life for the Lord has great purpose for us here!

God bless you my beloved brother!
