Life is filled with happiness and joy, as well as sorrow and sadness. Life can be long, yet at the same time be short, during which, we may be confronted with all kinds of problems, from which we earn experience and learn how to grow and lead a life despite hardness and arduousness.
That is what we can read out of the wonderful Korean novel – “Marathon”, which is actually a great mother’s diary recording her everyday bringing up and training her son, who has been suffering from autism since the age of 5. Regardless of the great misfortune, she have made her son persist in running everyday, the result of which, the great boy performed a miracle by finishing Marathon with 2 hours and 57 minutes in the year of 2007. However, “I want to live even one day longer than my son,” said the mother, hoping to take care of him all her life. The mother’s life is much longer than 42.195 km, as there is no terminal for maternal love.
The mother’s life, a life of Marathon.
