May my whole family stay smiling. | Tanabata Time Capsule

Today, I am participating in Kotoba-to-san's project.

Now that I'm an adult, what would I write on a Tanabata strip?

Since I'm a greedy person, there's no end to my wishes if I start listing them.

• I want to win a media award in the essay category of the Creative Awards.

• I want to be able to make a living through writing.

• Before that, I want to return to work first.

• I want to recover from depression.

• I want to go to the World Expo.

• I want to go on a solo trip.

• I want to watch a lot of movies.

• I want Jubilo Iwata to return to J1.

• I want to go watch a Jubilo Iwata match.

• I want to go eat delicious eel at Lake Hamana.

• I want to go eat a hamburger steak at Sawayaka.

• I want to tone up my waistline.

• I want to be a little slimmer.

And so on; I could produce enough strips to fill an entire bamboo branch all by myself. That's a lot. See, I told you there's no end to it.

But if I had to pick my number one wish, it would surely be about my beloved family.

May my whole family stay smiling.

My happiness is my family being happy.
Every day, all sorts of things happen at work and school, but I hope that at home, we can all feel at ease and keep smiling. And, of course, I include myself in that family. I want to spend time smiling in front of my family, too. I want to laugh and feel truly happy.

To achieve that, I must first take care of my own physical and mental health. I want to continue the squats I've made a habit, regain a calm state of mind, and bring happiness to both myself and my family.

It might seem like something obvious, but I cannot help but wish for the happiness of my whole family. Perhaps I should think more about myself, but since my family's happiness is my own, I will continue to wish for their happiness.

May my wishes come true.
If possible, it would be amazing if all the wishes I wrote here came true. Just kidding.
