疊思成城

Since the consecutive days of late, an allergic reaction has manifested, causing my entire anatomy to flush red and swell. It did not present monumental agony, intense irritation, or feverish warmth. Rather, only when my attire continuously chafed against the skin, allowing the cumulative irritation to aggregate, did a localized itchiness commence to emerge. Fortuitously, upon the morning the allergy surfaced, I awoke at an exceptionally early hour, and immediately migrated toward the medical clinic slightly past nine o'clock to receive therapeutic care. Though I am currently consuming the prescribed pharmacology, the sensation that the symptoms are demonstrably ameliorating has failed to materialize. On the morrow, it may well be imperative to pay a visit to an internal medicine practitioner as well.

Though it felt as though my entire anatomy was undergoing a transformation due to the allergic response, paradoxically, from the vantage point of this precise juncture, it was a day where the allergy constituted the solitary anxiety resting within my consciousness. One by one, I was retrieving the concepts marooned within my mind and giving them physical architecture. Launching a YouTube live broadcast and spending a vast, protracted span of time engineering this and that generated a profound sense of reward. Wholly unconstructive play commanded zero significance; only the labor of constructing the future appeared capable of rendering true fulfillment. I intensely yearn to engineer a magnificent product. That manifests, in all probability, as my absolute greatest desire. To build a magnificent product, I am continuously executing all variations of experimentation. Marshalings the absolute totality of my knowledge and historical experience, I am systematically attaching flesh to the skeletal framework. Exactly toward what species of future this flesh will ultimately be integrated remains entirely obscured to me.

It feels precisely identical to the sensation of assembling Lego blocks during the chapters of my childhood. Throughout my youth, I possessed a remarkably substantial quantity of Lego within my domicile. While it was far from an astronomically lavish supply, provided one engineered a superb idea, it was fully sufficient to construct a sovereign fortress or a domicile. When building a structure utilizing Lego, instances where I mapped out the design with absolute perfection from the very inception were exceptionally sparse. As the creation unfolded, a certain celerity and momentum naturally accelerated. That architecture transformed interchangeably into a home, and into a towering citadel. And whenever they gazed upon the magnificently engineered Lego creation, absolutely everyone would broadcast their unbridled admiration.

The entity I am currently constructing contemporary to this moment is fundamentally far from disparate from the Lego I played alongside during my childhood chapters. I manufacture individual blocks from raw conception, I harvest pre-existing blocks from alternate repositories, and as I systematically stack them one by one, layer upon meticulous layer, it ultimately crystallizes into a remarkably magnificent fortress. Though I am currently executing under the nomenclature of 'labor' an activity that once entirely consumed whole days as pure play, I completely refrain from recognizing it strictly as labor. I am merely executing the activity I profoundly adore, manufacturing the exact creations I intensely yearn to bring into existence.

Whether the multitude of individuals witnessing that trajectory upon the face of this planet is vast or microscopic commands zero monumental consequence; yet, I harbor an immensely deep-seated gratitude toward the reality that even a select, minority populace casts their gaze upon it. Attention, in its unilateral substance, is an exquisitely precious commodity. Those who have navigated historical seasons of profound isolation will grasp that value with absolute clarity. To have received attention, and to harvest an augmented vitality through that validation to continuously manufacture creations, is a profoundly joyous affair. The labor of creating each individual element, one by one, yields a joy that possesses absolutely zero variance between the contemporary version of myself and the young boy who once aligned Lego blocks within the secluded corner of his room. I remain, both then and contemporary to this moment, an individual who thoroughly relishes the alignment of Lego. With an absolute, unadulterated ecstasy.

    하루가 멀다하고 사고가 터지는 것이 인간사. 인간이 만든 것 중 무엇이 대단하다 말할 수 있을까. 무엇이 완전하다 말할 수 있을까. 무엇이 영원하다 말할 수 있을까. 영원한 것은 단 하나도 없고 먼지가 쌓이지 않는 것도 단 하나도 없다. 기회 역시 영원하지 않아서 영원할 것 같은 젊음…

    이카루스는 태양에 가까이 가면 안된다는 것을 알았으나 높게 날았다. 깃을 붙인 밀납이 녹아 깃이 떨어져 나가고 나서야 그는 자신의 미래를 보았다. 자유로 향하는 날개를 얻었을 때 태양을 향해서도 바다를 향해서도 안됐다. 고도를 유지하며, 섬세하게 바람을 타지 않는다면 어디로든 날아갈…
