Jayoung: I saw a beautiful silky spider web between the tree branches. The web was glowing from the sun light in the morning. I stood there for an hour to look at the spider web. At the last moment, one fly came and was captivated by the web, suddenly a spider appeared and grabbed it. I was surprised to see one life being taken by the almost invisible and beautiful web. Maybe our life and death are like this.

Keiko: Can we enter time through the section of life and death? In continuing discontinuation, life and death, life and death in each moment? No, we are already there, only we are blind.
