Turning today's joy into energy for tomorrow

Today was a special day where many happy things happened all at once.

For the first time since I started note, I received two notifications called "Content Boards."

At first, I was surprised and wondered, "What is this?"

I had seen other creators happy about receiving boards before, so I stared at my screen for a while in disbelief that such a notification had appeared for me too.

It is proof that I received many likes. And an invitation to a contest.

I am truly happy to have received both at the same time, and this reward is all thanks to everyone who always warmly reads my articles. Thank you so much.

And today, I also had another exciting encounter. I visited the article of Mutsumi x Chappy, a creator who radiates an overwhelming energy.

Their world, where music, words, and passionate rallies with friends fly back and forth, was so profound that it felt a bit difficult for me, yet it shook my heart intensely.

Touching upon dynamic expressions I don't possess, I was greatly inspired, thinking, "There are people in this world who can wield such amazing magic!"

Receiving warm words in the comments section from such a wonderful person, and being supported by having my work added to their magazine—each of these interactions has become the best nourishment for me right now.

Also, I am saved every day by the heartwarming connections that spread through the hashtag "#WhatAreYouTalkingAbout" (#なんのはなしですか).

I felt that it was truly good to have kept writing, through the days I could and the days I couldn't, even while struggling every day.

Everything that happened today is gently pushing me forward. I want to continue moving my pen one step at a time, turning this joy into energy for tomorrow.

Everyone, I look forward to your continued support.
