It is very interesting to read your grasp of America through the writings of Americans you have found on Steem.

Some years ago I had a Korean friend that lived across the street. He told me about his philosophy of life. He said it was like a man climbing up a cliff with a rope. Above the top of the cliff were rodents chewing on the rope. Halfway up the cliff was a bush with sweet berries. He told me he wished to eat the sweet berries while he could.

I admired him very much.

Thanks!
