I am taking on a new challenge. I want to create a book together with all of you ๐
Today, I
have an announcement to make to everyone.
I am going to take on the challenge of "Kindle Publishing"๐
The feelings deep in my heart, I have decided to deliver them in the form of a book, not just through note articles this time.
But I don't want this challenge to be
one I take on all by myself.
I want it to be a work
created together with all of you
who come to Smile Village. Today, I am writing this because I
wanted to tell you that directly.
There were feelings I couldn't fully convey through note alone
While continuing to write on note, there was something I had always felt. That is,
there are feelings that cannot be fully conveyed through articles alone. I want to convey them more
deeply. I want to deliver more
. I want to deliver them carefully, in a form that will remain in someone's heart
. I found myself thinking that more and more. But if an article becomes too long, it inevitably becomes difficult to read. Even though I really want you to hear more, it won't fit. That frustration has always been in my heart. That's why I started thinking that next, I want to try delivering them in the form of a book.
I, who used to avoid writing,
have come this far
Honestly, I was originally a person who
disliked and avoidedreading and writing. That I am now trying to write a bookโif my past self heard this, I'm sure they would be surprised. But there was
something that changed while continuing note
. "I'm looking forward to it," "I'm a fan," "I was saved." I started receiving words like that. There are people who wait for the words I write
. When I learned that,
honestly, I couldn't believe it
. There were even times when readers would put into words and tell me the "meaning of being here" that I couldn't find myself. Every time that happened, I started to think that
perhaps my own words have meaning too.
Actually, I myself was also being saved
And, there was one more thing I realized. It wasn't just the people who read my work who were being saved. Actually,
I myself was being saved by my own articles. When I'm honestly feeling down, I reread my own writing.
Then, my heart feels a little lighter
. The things I was carrying start to seem a little ridiculous
. I realized later,
on my own, that words have that kind of power. The words I wrote for someone else
had, before I knew it, helped me too. That is precisely why I thought, I don't want to end these words just within the articles
.
I, who am nobody,
wanted to try taking a step forward
There is one more reason why I want to write a book.
It is a very personal reason.
Simply put, I wanted to try creating my own work.
As someone who is nobody, I wanted to take a step forward as a person who writes books.
Of course, I have my anxieties.
Can someone like me really do this?
Will I end up leaving it half-finished?
I have thought about such things many times.
Even so, since my words have been received this far, I decided that
I want to believe in my own words for once
.
I do not want this book to be something I create alone
And there is something I most want to convey this time.
I do not want this book to be
something I create alone.
The reason I have been able to continue writing on note this far is because there were
people who read my work.
People who supported me.
People who responded with their own words.
That is why I do not want this challenge to
end as something that belongs only to me.
While receiving all of your thoughts, I want to make it
a book we grow together.
That is what I think.
I believe there are as many reasons for not being able to talk about dreams and as many pains in not being able to take on challenges as there are people.
There are surely many perspectives that I cannot see through my own experience alone.
That is precisely why
I want to hear your voices.Your experience might save someone.Your words might gently push someone who is standing still just like you.
I want to make it a book that is
created by layering many different thoughts in that way.
Actually, it is already in motion
Actually, this challenge is already in motion.
The title has been roughly decided.
I have also finished writing the introduction.
And I have started writing the main text little by little.
I will report the details again later.
But it is properly starting to move forward.
It is still in progress.
But I hope you will watch over me, including this process.
Here is the topic for this time
Here, there is something I want to ask you all.
Can you talk about your dreams with your head held high?
If you cannot,
I want you to tell me the reason.
ใปI have been denied in the past
ใปI have had the experience of being laughed at
ใปI am afraid because I have had things that did not come true
ใปI am concerned about what others think
ใปI think it is impossible for me
ใปI do not even know what can be called a dream
Any answer is fine.
It is okay if it is not well put together.
Please tell me your real experiences and thoughts
in the comments!
I want to hear your voice.
While receiving those thoughts, I want to
create a warm book together with all of you
.
