I want you to be yourself and live freely

That is how I want to be myself
And it is what I want for my children as well

Do what you want to do, what you love, freely and in your own way🌸

I don't want to become an adult who says things like, "Back in my day..." or "When I was young..." (laughs). Nowadays, there are so many diverse ways to work, aren't there?

Study hard, get into a good high school or university, join a large company, work steadily until retirement, and collect a pension. Keep your salary safe in savings or fixed deposits...

After all, changing jobs, having a side hustle, or being a freelancer is common now. Some people even achieve FIRE (is that what it's called?) at a young age. It's an era where you don't just rely on a pension, but invest for yourself, right?

Starting a company or working multiple jobs while still a student? You young people are amazing! ✨

I have a child in my home who is preparing for university entrance exams... Because it's this time of year, the school is providing various career guidance.

I just want them to freely do what they feel is "the thing" at any given moment🎵

I usually leave things up to my child's own will.

But once the exam period approaches...

✔️ I want them to study hard
✔️ I want them to have something they are clearly dedicated to
✔️ I want them to graduate from high school
✔️ If possible, I want them to go to a decent university
(← "decent"? 🤣)
✔️ I want them to graduate from university

I've realized I have these hopes that seem like the "standard path" 😱 and I'm currently panicking.

I made a mess of things during middle school entrance exams before (← I'll talk about that another time 💦), but I really want my child tolove themselves and live a relaxed, happy life.

For that reason, I've decided once again that I want to embodyliving as I please myself. 😊

And for my children, I want to keep telling them ‘You are one-of-a-kind and precious beings’ and continue to watch over them.

This time, I wrote about my way of life and parenting, including some private details.

Actually, the book I have been introducing every day is related to this as well.

I know these are difficult questions to answer, but I suddenly felt like I wanted to know😊
