Congratulations on your graduation.
Today marks a turning point,
but the real battle begins here.
Society is not kind.
The good guy doesn’t always win.
Unreasonable things abound.
Betrayal is more common than you might imagine.
Reality will repeatedly stand in your way when things don’t go as planned.
That’s why it’s worth moving forward.
Difficulties are not meant to measure your talent.
They are meant to test the depth of your resolve.
It’s okay to have days when you feel discouraged.
There will be nights when you want to run away.
There’s no shame in shedding tears or
admitting your weaknesses.
The real danger is giving up on trying.
Telling yourself, “It’s impossible anyway.”
Pain is a side effect of growth.
Anxiety is proof that you’re trying to move forward.
When you hit a wall,
question yourself before you doubt yourself.
“Is this an insurmountable wall?”
“Or maybe I just don’t know how to overcome it?”
There’s no need to compare yourself to others.
Staying still is more valuable than speed.
Success isn’t about not falling.
It’s about continuing to get back up even after falling.
Reality is harsh.
But there are views that only those who don’t run away can reap.
Take responsibility for your own life.
Don’t leave your choices up to others.
You’ll probably waver many times from now on.
But in the end, the only ones who remain are those who know they made the decision and who never give up.
Move forward with pride.
It’s okay to be afraid.
The world isn’t easy.
But it’s much more interesting than you think.
I’ll be waiting for you, just a little further ahead.
卒業おめでとう。
今日でひとつの区切りとなるが、
本当の意味での【戦い】はここから始まる。社会は優しくない。
正しい人が、常に勝つわけでもない。理不尽なことは山ほどある。
裏切りは想像よりも多い。
思い通りにならない現実が、
何度も前に立ちはだかる。だからこそ、進む価値がある。… pic.twitter.com/1w2RvQlpTG
