Body flannel 2 by 밤바맨

 

 

 

I returned to the bathhouse since I could not finish getting rid of my body’s dirt last time.
This time, I packed everything that I needed on the day before. I’ve also put in two types of body flannel, a long one and a short one, that can be worn on my hand. After having soaked my body in the hot water for an ample amount of time, I started to scrub. I think the dirt must have gotten stuck deeply on my skin because not much was coming out. A lot of dirt would have come out by now if I had scrubbed at the same degree of intensity last week.

From this incident of how very little dirt came out, since a week had already passed, I come to realize that there is an appropriate time even for scrubbing dirt off.


In the Bible, there is this kind of verses. ‘Ecclesiastes 3: 1 - 11: there is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. What do workers gain from their toil? I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.’


There is an appropriate time for everything. If I could not scrub the dirt off at the right time, I would have a period of regret until I can refreshingly scrub it off. One would regret for the entire lifetime for the things that do not get done at the right times, but if things that are related to eternality do not get done, it would cause eternal regret. They say regrets always happen afterwards; We should never let it happen.
