Moving

As William Cowper's poem, The Task, expressed, "Variety is the spice of life," and my life has never been dull, nor tedious, and it's definitely not the same all the time. My journey of moving has been all about connecting the dots, not only geographically and professionally but also emotionally, and it lasted fifty years! Having lived half my life in Korea and moving to live for the other half in the States, my identity stands alone, somewhere in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It was not easy as a poor boy on the street to meet the challenge of becoming the man with thousand jobs.
