I haven't written in a while. Things have been getting hectic as the school year is drawing to an end, and very soon at that. Other than that, it seems like a lot of things have been happening, but in reality, when I step back and look at life, nothing much has happened, or is happening in general. I guess it's the type of life I lead, simple but without a purpose. But I've found a purpose, some days it feels like it's getting closer, others it feels like it's slowly slipping away.
But especially today, something did happen that affected someone close to me, and no matter how I act, I don't want to come across as selfish or self-indulgant. I want to be there for anyone I can help. For what happened today: I didn't know you, but in some ways I did. I know that we all share the same emotions, but it's unimaginable what you went through. Here's to hoping you are in a better place.
After all that's happened, it makes you really think about who might be next, it can literally be anyone. I just hope to live life everyday thankful and grateful for the wonderful people around me. I hope they can return those feelings towards me.
ありがとう伝えたい今なら言えるよ
過ごした季節も忘れはしないよ
向日葵揺れるタイヨウのように
私のうた君を照らすよ...
Right now, I want to tell you "Thank you"
I won't forget seasons that has since past.
A sunflower swaying beneath the sun
My song will shine for you...
- Kaoru Amane, "Taiyou no Uta"
