My name is En-Uk Sequoya Hwang, and I was born on May 28, 1999 in Jerusalem, Israel. I started this blog to show my art.
I live in Seoul, South Korea with my older sister and my parents. My mother is Korean, and my father is American.
I see the footprints of two feet on a big green bathroom scale. The person who stepped on the scale had a cut lip, and when he looked down to see his weight, two large drops of blood fell from his lip and splatted on the scale, obscuring the weight result in the little rectangular screen. (It's an electronic scale, you see.)
Just thinking laterally, dhr. It's usually better than thinking too literally.
I have to say... every time I see "dhr," I think of the proto-Indo-European root dhr (law, right, rectitude), from which we get dharma. In India, this root ended up taking over most of the language having to do with rightness, rule, and law; the earlier term, associated with early Hindu thinking, was rta, still visible in Western language in words like right, rectitude, rhythm, arithmetic, etc. If I recall correctly, Robert Pirsig, in his book Lila, wrote at some length about this.
Anyway, the letters "dhr" might just be your initials, but they're also a noble unit of meaning in their own right.

ReplyDeleteHow much do Jepenese people generally weigh?
"How much do Jepenese people generally weigh?"
ReplyDeleteGenerally? About everything that we above water have to weigh. Weights and measures are pretty much indespensible in every country.
But I guess you were asking En-Uk . . .

ReplyDelete"Law, right, rectitude, rule"... me?? :-D
No, it is only about my initials, where H is for Humei, a Japanese name meaning... No-name.
... a JEPENese name, that is.
ReplyDeleteKevin, Dhr, Daddy . . . I know.
ReplyDeleteWe know you know. And we know you know that we know you know. In fact, I'm pretty sure we know you know that we know you know that we know you know.
ReplyDeleteBut does Sa-Rah know?
No.
