• After the failure business of raising chickens, Mother urged Father to move to another town to embark in the restaurant business. We packed our belongings on a wagon including a basket of live chickens, a tiny caravan of hope looking for a new place from which to start on our upward journey through life. On one hand, Father wanted to start a new life and continued to seek his dream. But on the other hand, it represents that Father’s new try failed again. Father didn’t say goodbye to his past life when he began a new life. Past life deeply affected Father’s mind though it meant failure to him. In other words, Father didn’t really face the actuality.
