어머니

Posted on May 7, 2026 by TaeHun Yoon 윤 태헌 尹 太憲

팝 가수 마돈나가 첫 딸인 루디아에 대한 모성애가 화제가 되어 신문에 대서특필이 된 것을 읽은 적이 있습니다. 여느 어머니들이야 제 자식 사랑하는 것을 당연지사로 알고 신문에까지 화재가 될 것까지 없습니다. 그러나 마돈나의 평소의 문란했던 사생활과 윤리와 도덕을 가차없이 파괴하며 살아왔기 … Continue reading →

Posted on May 6, 2026 by TaeHun Yoon 윤 태헌 尹 太憲

Live on 9/3/1998 at KCBN 안녕하세요? 우리는 일상의 생활을 통하여 삶의 그림을 그립니다. 어느 누구도 나는 이렇게 저렇게 살아야겠다는 계획이나, 특별한 요구를 하고 이 땅에 태어나질 않습니다. 누구나 다 공평하게 주어진 부모의 사랑 안에서 성장하고 살아가면서 나름대로의 어느 정착지에 도달케 … Continue reading →

“Road”

Posted on May 6, 2026 by TaeHun Yoon 윤 태헌 尹 太憲

Losing Poem

Posted on May 5, 2026 by TaeHun Yoon 윤 태헌 尹 太憲

부모의 역할

Posted on May 5, 2026 by TaeHun Yoon 윤 태헌 尹 太憲

안녕하세요? 저는 가끔 주위 분들로부터 듣는 인사가 있는데 그것은 “목사의 아내 노릇하기가 얼마나 어려우십니까?”라는 것입니다. 저에게 그렇게 말씀하시는 분들 중에는, 때로는 얼굴 표정까지 찌푸리며 저에게 최대한의 동정을 보내지요. 그런데, 저는 그 인사가 별로 의미가 없을 때가 있답니다. 아, 물론 목사의 … Continue reading →

“The Two Sides of Language”

Posted on May 4, 2026 by TaeHun Yoon 윤 태헌 尹 太憲

Not long ago, I had occasion to reflect once more on human speech — on language itself. The reason is simple: there are words we may say to one another, and words we must never say. A mistake made with … Continue reading →

언어의 양면성

Posted on May 4, 2026 by TaeHun Yoon 윤 태헌 尹 太憲

저는 요근래 인간의 말, 언어에 대해서 다시 한번 생각 할 기회가 있었습니다. 그것은 사람간에 해서 되는 말이 있고 해서는 안되는 말이 있기 때문이지요. 말로 인한 실수를 엎질러진 물과 같다고 흔히 말합니다. 한번 쏟아놓으면, 아무리 수정하려해도 다시 주워담을 수 없기 때문입니다. … Continue reading →
