🌟Continuing My Self-Introduction ⑤ | Life Can Be Re-edited from Age 45 🌸 Flowers, AI, and Tarot Moved My Future
Good evening, this is Miki❤️
This article is the 5th in a 5-part self-introduction series
“Continuing My Self-Introduction | Until I Reached ‘Living Every Day with Excitement and Joy!’”
of 5.
After turning 45,
I was finally able to ask myself,
“How do I really want to live?”
From there,
the re-editing of my life began little by little.
1. I was collecting qualifications to fill my anxiety 🫤
Even for a while after joining my current company,
I was working while taking medication 💊.
I didn't tell anyone around me about my illness,
just trying to get through each day 💦.
However, due to a company reorganization, I lost my health again
and even took two months off.
When things started to settle down after that,
what was actually driving me
was not “passion” but “anxiety.”
What if I’m alone from now on?
Will I be okay in my old age?
I’m anxious unless I have something to live on for the rest of my life.
With those feelings, I also tried matchmaking.
But I realized something along the way 💡:
I was acting not out of
“I want to be with this person,”
but out of
“I want to eliminate my future anxiety.”
I also took many lessons.
Flower arrangement, Kodo (incense ceremony), calligraphy,
Pilates, translation, TOEIC.
I also obtained qualifications one after another:
Flower arrangement instructor,
Herbarium instructor,
Candle instructor,
Lecan flower instructor,
and even Type 1 Health Officer at my company.
But no matter how many I added, the anxiety
didn't disappear.
In fact, I even started to carry the anxiety of money.
2. The answers I looked for outside were nowhere to be found
I understand now.
It wasn't that I wanted the knowledge or the qualifications themselves.
What I really wanted was
the feeling of being able to say “This is fine.”
🍀
If I learned more,
if I had more qualifications,
if I could do more things...
Even if I kept looking for answers outside like that,
the roots of my heart were not satisfied.
3. Flowers 🌸, Tarot, and AI connected the scattered parts of me
The turning point was
learning about intuition, tarot, neuroscience, and the mechanics of emotions📚
In the process, I finally realized💡
What you want to do is
not something you go outside to find
nor is it something you getby becoming someone else
In truth, it's just about noticing what has always been inside you✨
From that point on, I stopped adding more certifications
What started instead was
taking care of my own mood😃
bringing excitement back into my daily life
and learning to get along well
with negative emotions
Now, while working in sales and IT at a company,
I hold dream vision courses using AI
and AI x Tarot workshops on an irregular basis
Flowers🌸, words, tarot, and AI,
they are all connected within me.
Because I believe they are all
tools for people who have left themselves behind
to return to themselves
as well
4. What I want to create from now on is a "place where you can feel excited"
What I want to create from now on is
a place where people who don't know what they want to do
can stop by with peace of mind
People who have worked hard at their jobs
People who have prioritized their families
People whose child-rearing has settled down
and want to think about their "future selves"
People who have worked hard but still feel unfulfilled somewhere
I want to create a place where such people
can drop in,feel a little better,
and go home
My goal is to open a "Excitement Salon"by the time I'm 64!!✨
Like a library where you can talk,
a place with flowers, learning, words, music,
and dialogue with people
Lecrin flowers, flower arrangements,
calligraphy, reading circles, study groups, concerts,
it's a salon where various "likes" meet
and life begins to move little by little
5. Conclusion
Over the past five parts,
I have written about my life so far.
Looking back,
things that seemed like detours,
and even the painful times,
were all leading me to who I am today.✨
So, if there is anyone right now who isfeeling lost,please know that
you don't have to rush to find a big answer.
It's okay.👌
Start by findingthe small things you loveor
the things that make you feel at ease.That is enough to begin with.
The answer is not outside,
it is within you.
If there is something you would like to try
if you were no longer anxious...
What is something that makes your heart feel a little brighter just by thinking about it?
Thank you so much for reading this far.😊
In my future notes,
I will share tips on bringing excitement back
between work and life,
written in my own way.
Thank you for reading
until the end.🌟
If any part of today's content resonated with you,
I would be happy if you could leave a comment,
even just a few words,
like "this part left an impression on me"
or "I have had a similar experience."❤️
