Beautiful Korean Fan Dancing

Explanation: Korean court fan dancing evolved from the 500 year long rule of the Joseon Dynasty in Korea. To this day it's a very beautiful part of all Korean elementary school girls' cultural education requirements; an enduring character of Koreans values for moral dignity and modesty.

It Begins In Light

(There is a saying here in Korea which is pretty sweet. Translated it says that the Korean men down in the south are most handsome and the Korean girls up north are very pretty. In Korean it's very short and sounds like "Nam-nam buk-yoh. So here is a light for a beautiful marriage between South and North Korea.)

Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.--ROM. ii. I.

Search thine own heart. What paineth thee
In others, in thyself may be;
All dust is frail, all flesh is weak;
Be thou the true man thou dost seek.

J. G. WHITTIER

A saint's life in one man may be less than common honesty in another. From us, whose consciences He has reached and enlightened, God may look for a martyr's truth, a Christian's unworldly simplicity, before He will place us on a level even with the average of the exposed classes. We perhaps think our lives at least harmless. We do not consider what He may think of them, when compared with the invitations of His that we have slighted, with the aims of His Providence we are leaving without our help, with the glory for ourselves we are refusing and casting away, with the vast sum of blessed work that daily faithfulness in time can rear without overwork on any single day.
