"There is something much more important than money in this world; a lot more money."
"If money is not enough, then show them your sincerity by giving them even more money. Then they're destined to be won over."

"Wait, but what about those that don't even accept even if you give them that much..."

"Then you simply don't have enough."

"A future is not given to you."
"It is something you must take for yourself."

"While claiming that they lacked talent. They deny that they were powerless, because it's scary to admit failure. As if to not waste their hard work thus far... 'To not give up' is the correct answer, is what they make themselves delusionally believe. The dream that was supposed to 'come true' will then exist just for the sake of 'being chased'. There's no point if a dream isn't there to make it 'come true'."

"A baby bird who wants to acquire feathers—– but doesn’t know how to grow them. A baby bird who wants to fly—- but doesn’t know how to. I think being troubled is the same as being hopeful. From deep inside you, there’s a glittering wish that you have not yet found yourself. Even though you still haven’t figured it out by now, it’s neither a shame nor is it a bad thing."

"I think we all have that time as a kid when we innocently dreamed about our future but then adulting and life happens; time drained our colors to fit the norms. But, it's still there, our principles and ideals. We struggle - we want to live on our own terms but we just cannot abandon what's expected of us. I'm not sure if 'society's expectation' is the exact term to connote that kind of shackle. But we all want to live how we want, so either live for the world or live for yourself, we will be stuck in an endless cycle of hate. "

"The past year has revealed a difference in values with some of my closest, longest friendships. It’s like a slow motion, uncertain heartbreak on top of all the other stressors this year has brought. I’m coping by trying my best to envision my future, and the kinds of people I want in my life. Also trying to remind myself that forgiveness is important and it is okay to leave the door open for people."

"You have those moments too, right? When you reach into your pockets and you find something from your childhood, those nostalgic memories you experience are the most precious and you should cherish them more."

"Everyone will become an adult at some point, and they will continue to live their lives while forgetting their dreams; who decides this? Even if they don't come true, we choose to believe in them anyway."
