나의 삶은 얼마나 평탄커나 얼마나 고되었는가. 나는 참으로 운이 좋다, 라 생각했고 지금도 그러하다. 더불어 그리고 한편으로는 나는 참으로 고생했다, 라는 마음또한 부정 할 수 없다.
20 대의 마지막 해, 오랜시간동안 이루고 싶었던 많은 일들을 이루었다. 어찌보면 모두 이루었다. 심지어 계획했던 타임라인에 .. 이 얼마나 굉장하고 감사한 일인가. 대견하고 감사하다.
나의 10 대 그리고 20 대, 무한히 행복한 날들도 있었고 마음 졸이며 눈물로 지낸 밤들도 있었다. 남들에게 수월함이 나에게 버거울 때도 있었고, 큰 괴로움 없이 얻어지는 선물들도 있었다. 그 모든 하루하루가 쌓여서 오늘의 나의 생활이 되었고, 단 하루도 돌아가고싶지 않다. 매 순간 최선을 다했다, 기보다 나의 범위에서 내릴 수 있는 가장 적절한 선택을 하였고 그렇게 경험들은 배움이되어 .. 앞으로도 사용될 것이다.
그간의 알게 모르게 지나간 아픔들이, 어떻게인지 선물로 돌아오는 것 같은 요즘. 감사하고 행복하다. 편안 할 수 있고 사랑 할 수 있고 서로 감사하며 위로하며 지내는 하루하루에 감동.
나의 30 대를 앞두고, 다시 계획을 세워본다 .. 무엇을 해야하지, 모르겠다. 다시시작.
“We constitute the Catalan Republic, as an independent and sovereign country, under the rule of law,” read a motion that passed 70-10, fueling the biggest political crisis to hit Spain since the 1970s.
Catalonia’s move defies Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, who’s been working to quash the succession effort and keep Spain intact. Just minutes after Catalonian lawmakers voted on Friday’s resolution, Spain’s senate granted the central government powers to impose direct rule on the region, setting up what is likely to be a raucous few days in Barcelona and elsewhere.
Friday’s vote was greeted with cheers by supporters of the independence movement, many of whom view have economic grievances about Madrid’s tax policies and view their region as culturally distinct from the rest of Spain. But some anti-independence lawmakers boycotted the vote — one warned his colleagues that “you will go down in history for having fractured Catalonia and for sinking the institutions of Catalonia” The New YorkTimesreports.
Here’s what to know about Catalonia’s independence vote.

Why is Catalonia seeking independence?
Catalonia, which is Spain’s richest region, has a distinct cultural heritage and language. The push for independence crystallized during the fallout of the global financial crisis in 2008. Some Catalans believe the country’s rising unemployment levels and languishing economy was pulling the region down, and they began to seek greater autonomy from Madrid.
What led up to Catalonia’s independence vote?
Friday’s vote came after weeks of brinksmanship between Catalonia President Carles Puigdemont and Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy. The situation first escalated on Oct. 1, when nearly 90% of Catalonian voters backed independence from Spain in a controversial and disputed referendum. Catalonia officials say turnout was about 43%, despite the vote being suspended by Spain’s highest court and deemed illegal by the federal government in Madrid.
The Catalonia independence referendum led to weeks of political maneuvering and mixed messages on all sides. During an Oct. 10 speech, Puigdemont stopped just short of declaring independence, opting instead to pursue a dialogue with Madrid. But Rajoy has maintained a hard line throughout, announcing Oct. 21 that he was invoking a constitutional rule allowing him to “restore the rule of law, coexistence and the economic recovery and to ensure that elections could be held in normal circumstances.”
Puigdemont appeared to take a step towards détente on Thursday, when he held off from declaring independence and suggested early elections instead. But the attempt fell apart in the face of his own hardcore supporters and opposition from Madrid, theFinancialTimesreports. Puigdemont then turned the matter to Catalonian parliament, which on Friday voted to declare independence.
Will Catalonia become independent of Spain?
What happens next is unclear. But Catalonia will face significant challenges attempting to assert its independence in the face of Spain’s decision to impose direct rule on the region. It will get little help from abroad, as other European nations, many of which are facing separatist movements of their own, have shown little indication that they will acknowledge Catalonian independence. Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgoen, who has been seeking a new vote for independence from the U.K.,saysCatalonia has the right to self-determinate.
The European Union, meanwhile, has distanced itself from the crisis, deeming it an internal Spanish issue. “For E.U. nothing changes. Spain remains our only interlocutor. I hope the Spanish government favors force of argument, not argument of force,” European Council President Donald Tusktweetedon Friday.

천지연 폭포는 기억보다 아름다웠고, 본태 박물관은 마치 나의 공간인양 야요이 쿠사마를 즐길 수 있는 호화스러움을 선사했다. 운전 매너는 전보다 떨어진 것인지 나의 체감이 예민해진 것인지 불편했고 사람들의 태도 또한 비슷했다.
눈 감고 한 숨 크게 쉬고, 공기 참 탁함을 .. 괴롭게 느낀다. 이 나라에서 사는 것은 행복할까. 나의 환경이 너무나 평안하여 이 곳이 불편해진 것일테지, 모두 상대적인 것. 내가 객관성을 잃은 탓이리라.
하루 세끼에 간식까지 맛있게 챙겨먹고, 철 좋은 풍경 찾아보고, 휴식하기 좋다는 숙소들에 묵고, 좋음에 빠져만 있음에도 일상에서 쉽지 않음을 느낀다. 표정들은 고단해보이고 고민들은 여전히 깊으다.
아름답다, 분명히 지금도 그러하다. 하지만 나의 기억만큼의 감동은 어디로 흐려진 것일까. 매 해 방문하던 이 곳을 2년 만에 찾았는데 그 감동이 덜하다는 것에 오묘한 마음이다. 할 일이 많아 마음 놓고 즐기지 못 한 이유일까, 쉽지 않음이 곳곳에 여럿이다. 그도 변하고, 나도 변한 것 이겠지.
