[Happy Writing Marathon #61] "If you were to score your daily life right now, what would it be?"

"Is that really so?"

Through this question,

I want to create a society where everyone can re-examine their own perceptions.

It's Yukiyo-chan🌿

"Who cares?"

When I saw this topic, the first thing I thought was,

"Who cares?"

That was it.

And then, right after that,

"Wait, does that mean zero points?"

"Or does it mean 1000 points?"

I started thinking about things like that.

Not 100 points, but 1000 points.

The reason I felt "it doesn't matter either way" might be because scoring things itself has become less important to me.

A question more important than a score

A while ago, I was unconsciously evaluating my days.

I did my best today.

I was no good today.

I should have been able to do more.

I feel like I was scoring myself in that way.

But now,

"What score did you get today?"

rather than,

"Is that really true?"

I find myself asking myself that more often.

"My heart feels lighter."

Recently, many very happy things have been happening.

"My heart feels lighter."

"I didn't know there was a way of thinking like that."

"I felt like I didn't have to blame myself."

I have been receiving comments like these more often.

I don't mean to tell anyone the 'correct answer' through the words, 'Is that really true?'

I just hope it can be a trigger for them to stop for a moment and look at their own perceptions.

That is the thought with which I write.

That is why,

"My heart feels lighter."

that one phrase makes me truly happy.

What note has taught me

And there is one more thing I am glad I started note for.

I can only experience my own life.

However, on note, there are the lives of many people.

Events I could never have experienced.

Ways of thinking I could never have come up with.

Every time I read an article,

"I never thought of it that way."

I find my own perspective being broadened as well.

That is why, recently, I started a magazine called "This article is wonderful!" where I collect articles that have moved my heart.

The number of articles I want to express gratitude for is gradually increasing.

Such days are also very happy.

And, through the Happy Writing Marathon, I have also encountered many wonderful articles.

Lives I cannot experience.

Perspectives I could not have thought of.

Every time I have such an encounter, I myself re-examine my own perceptions, asking, "Is that really so?"

That is why, recently, I have been gradually collecting articles that warmed my heart, found through the Happy Writing Marathon, into a magazine.

With gratitude.

I am sure they will continue to increase from here on out.

The "thank you" should be coming from me.

In the comments,

"I'm sorry I can't return the favor."

There are some who say that to me.

But please, really, don't worry about it.

The fact that you read it.

The fact that you put your feelings into words.

The fact that you spent your time on it.

That alone makes me happy enough.

If anything,

"Thank you, I should be the one saying that."

I am filled with that feeling.

My answer is "♾️"

The topic this time was,

"If you were to score your current daily life, what would it be?"

It was.

My answer is,

♾️(infinity)

.

It is not because every day is perfect.

The question "Is that really so?" spreads little by little, and

I, too, am being shown new worlds through the articles of many people.

Such days cannot be expressed by a score of 100.

That is why today, too, I

with gratitude,

"Is that really so?"

will continue to keep asking myself.

There are days that cannot be measured by a score.
Right now, I want to call that happiness.
