Yongbae and I went out to coffee again, and it was probably are most challenging conversation. We somehow start talking about things that made happy and what we think the purpose of life is. We both agreed that it was about not only serving yourself and helping the generation after yours to a better life. I believe that the conversation started from talking about parenting styles and the superficiality of Korean culture (I had to teach him the word "superficial"). He originally thought the word was synonymous with "shallow" but I ask explained that the word had more depth than that.
It was a great conversation, and I am super excited about our next meeting this Wednesday! It is my last day of undergraduate school and I will be celebrating with Youngbae, his wife, and some friends of mine as we go out to eat somewhere.
