When I'm tired and lonely, and tears fall

When I'm tired and lonely, and tears fall,

Isn't the beauty of a flower because it withers? Isn't the beauty of a meeting because there's parting? Why do we cling to things that aren't eternal?

Introducing Gyeonggi Techno Park

Introducing Gyeonggi Techno Park, a source of pride for me. The South Korean government identified Silicon Valley as the driving force behind the Third Industrial Revolution in the United States and formulated a medium to long-term plan for strengthening the technological infrastructure in 1995. To foster regional-specific strategic projects and achieve national balanced development, it established a special law on supporting industrial technology complexes and designated regional technoparks in 1998. In Gyeonggi Province, six regions participated in a competition to attract technopark projects, among which the consortium backed by the national industrial complex Smart Hub, located in Ansan City, was selected as the operator of Gyeonggi Techno Park.

I couldn't understand what Hesse meant by this at all. However, after quite some time and experiencing various parts of the world, I'm grateful and proud that I can now somewhat empathize with this statement. Happiness cannot be the purpose; life is s...

Intermittent Fasting Threatens Life

Intermittent Fasting Threatens Life Recently, many people around us are practicing intermittent fasting to reduce body fat and maintain health. The 16:8 intermittent fasting method, which maintains a 16-hour fasting period, is popular. The research team led by Victor Wenze Zhong from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine reportedly obtained unexpected results while studying how intermittent fasting changes the body healthily. They found that the 16:8 intermittent fasting method could significantly increase mortality rates from cardiovascular diseases. Analysis of the eating habits of 20,000 American adults from 2003 to 2018 showed that those who practiced 16:8 intermittent fasting had a 91% higher mortality rate from heart disease compared to those with regular eating habits. For those with underlying cardiovascular diseases, intermittent fasting increased the mortality rate from heart disease or stroke by 66%, and cancer patients also showed increased mortality rates when p...
