Korea’s leader, Kim Yong-Il has been and is continuing to “lead” his people immorally and unjustly in many ways. North Korea has been oppressed for so long in such horrible and degrading ways that is seems like there is no hope left for these innocent suffering citizens. Fortunately, God gives his people his perfect word from which advice, examples and life lessons can be taken and applied to every situation…
Although there is much controversy with me writing to you. Our people have never gotten along, and I fear that this letter may not find you well.

Still not so harmful? Going back on Kim Jong II allowing his people to go through poverty, normal economies cope with importing food, but this was not the case for North Korea. During the 1980’s, North Koreas government embarked on a policy of radical self-sufficiency known as juche.

At some point in the numerous journeys we embark on, we hit an obstacle and we feel all hope is lost. Sometimes we give up before any progress, and sometimes we give up right before we make it to the finish line, despite putting in so much effort to achieve it. Through Invictus by William Ernest Henley and If by Rudyard Kipling, it is shown that “if you can keep your head”, “yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it”.
