I attended the Self-Questioning Fashion Class

I attended on 09/23/2023!!

Akiya-san,
Shijimi Chance-san,
ezotanu-san,
Agasa Yako-san,
thank you for a wonderful time!!
It was a heated session that lasted over 6 hours, including breaks.

Putting things into words is tough.

That was my first impression.
Putting things into words is a daily challenge for me.
There were quite a few turns to speak in class. Since these are things I don't usually think about, the words were even harder to find. However, Akiya-san asked follow-up questions and posed hypotheses, and by answering them, my resolution gradually improved. Is she a counselor now?

Also, in the workshop where we categorized how we feel about various words, I realized that I go through life using words without understanding their definitions or meanings at all...! No, that's fine, but I think I should at least be able to explain that I am using a word with a specific meaning when I use it.

It's fun to hear other people's thoughts.

Is there anyone around me who can have such deep conversations? Is there?
There isn't.
I think some people have friends they can have deep conversations with, but I don't really. That's why it was so fun and refreshing to hear everyone's thoughts this time.
Even with the same words, how people perceive them is completely different. And people come up with words that aren't in my dictionary—it's so interesting!! Agasa Yako-san's "I want to be enshrined" was intense! This must be the power of input...!! The content and amount of what we've each taken in are different, aren't they.
Oh, and Akiya-san's 3-year diary was great!
If you keep writing for 3 years, it becomes a geological layer from which words emerge, and it becomes an update of yourself.

What I'm missing is resolve.

See, that's why I was scared.
I peered into the abyss... or maybe I just made eye contact with something in the abyss. I probably didn't actually peer into it!

My troublesome word was "cool." I hated the gap between my cool appearance and my weak-willed inner self.
But apparently, my "coolness" was already showing on the outside.
So, I was cool after all. I just need to accept and acknowledge it, andhave the resolve to exist coollyis all I need to do.
I will reconsider "cool" again. It has changed significantly from my previous thoughts, and I will also consider it from the perspective of my partner. Regarding this, I reached the conclusion in class toconvince or overwhelm them with overwhelming coolness and beauty born of loveI'll do it.

I'm cute too, after all.

I've created my concept.

I've become a person. It didn't come out easily during the workshop, and I was quite panicked, but I managed to give birth to it. I want to savor it for a bit, so I won't make it public.
But here too, the words coming from everyone were so interesting!! A different dictionary from mine!!

Summary: I received so much courage.

No one denies you... everyone, led by Akiya-san, is so kind. Righteously kind. A bundle of psychological safety. Whatever I talk about, they listen, react, and it's fun!
The reason there's never an atmosphere of "what is this person saying?" is thanks to Akiya-san listening with absolute seriousness. Things you talk about in a place like this are things you can cherish, and it gives you the courage to take action.
So, to everyone planning to attend, I was nervous, but it's a very safe place!!
