May I not commit the same mistake.
Allow me to find the truth,
Instill in me the will to strive for betterment
and remember what is the right way of living.
Allow me to learn and open my eyes.

Worth
Was it worth it?
Fuck yeah.
Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
It was awesome.

Story
Believe in your voice.
Yes, you may be wrong in the end.
But this moment you are living will prove to matter, too.
Don’t you want to be remembered for your courage, happiness, and confidence?
It’s time to take the step forward,
instead of backward.

Companion
Only after I’ve met my limit,
I began looking at others with curiosity.
For they must be as mortal as I am,
how are they getting by with this world?
While some were less interesting than others,
I’ve met ones whose worlds were grander.
It’s a humbling and grateful experience
to have shared a moment with such people.

Resonate
If you have tasted the pain in its entirety,
you’ll know the meaning of its word.
For those who have not drank from the cup,
only emptiness will ring the air.
Let us offer kindness if we know its meaning.
Let us strive to share the burden.
Let us strive for the togetherness.

Sprint
You’ve got to run faster!
Don’t let your mind slip.
Seize the moment now,
and save what will take years.

Simmer
Sit in and sweat it out.
This moment will be temporary.
There won’t be one like this one anymore.
Though it is our way to keep the solemn silence,
let us celebrate nonetheless.
This moment that we share together.

Direction
Have I strayed?
Over the years, I have learned by experience
that to be a “good person” may need an effort.
It takes the fortune, the willingness, and the environment to display such disposition.
Nevertheless, I have found it to be all the more worthwhile in the end.
It opened the door to a kind of generosity I dreamed of.
To keep a kind heart takes an effort.
But it is worthwhile in the end.

Help
When you need help,
quietly accept the fact
and ask for the help
before the fire becomes larger
until there’s nothing to salvage.
Ask for help.
There are those willing to help.

Knowledge
I didn’t know that I didn’t know.
Should I be grateful for the realization?
No matter how badly I have wanted it,
without the knowledge, there is no use
of all the seemingly apt attitudes.
I suspect that knowledge humbles those who have it,
for they know the power it has over those who don’t,
and the possibility of hidden knowledge.
