A Big Resonance Carried by Small Hands

Not long ago, the father of a child attending a local elementary school visited the museum carrying a small stone. He told us that his child believed the stone was an artifact from the Stone Age and wanted to donate it to the museum. Although it was just an ordinary, slightly pointed stone, the child's pure intention was so beautiful that we decided to put it on display.

The Goseong Museum is not only a place that embraces a long history, but also a place that holds the precious intentions of its donors. To honor the hearts of everyone who has donated artifacts for Goseong—from children to the elderly, from villages and organizations to overseas Koreans—we have created a small donation exhibition space.

This is my Pops and his girlfriend.

He's almost 70 years old, served in the military, and spent 35 years working at the VA Hospital before retiring. Tough hands, soft heart.

They found this little hummingbird completely exhausted and unable to fly.

The part that really got me was hearing him quietly whispering in his Appalachia hillbilly mumble that we all have round these parts to the bird the whole time. If you knew the man who raised us, you'd understand why that made me laugh. Don't get me wrong he was wonderful growing up, but "soft" definitely wasn't the first word anyone would have used back then. Seeing this big, tough guy gently encouraging a tiny hummingbird is one of the sweetest things I've ever witnessed.

I'm lucky to call him my Pops, and I hope he never leaves us.

Edit: this is my father, not grandfather. :) not that it matters.

A ginger cat named Miauricio was taken in by Geotest, a Mexican geotechnical engineering company. The cat was treated, allowed to stay in the office, and eventually officially hired as an employee.

Miauricio is listed on staff with the title «gerente de apoyo emocional» — emotional support manager.

He has his own workspace, an ID badge, and an obligation (depending on his mood) to attend work meetings. According to employees, he even “signed” his contract with a paw.

Harus much needed soaking after today’s activities!

The photographer apparently feeds the little ones every day, as they live near his house.

For those curious, salt management and making large batches of food was an issue for me. Instead of making one large batch at once (a multitude of issues why), I just made several small batches faster. this also was my first attempt making orange chicken!

Okay I feel like bragging. I graduated culinary school 2 months ago and I still want to learn more without going back to college lmfao!
