Another Spring Has Come & Gone.

Why must people chase after things that are impossible to reach ?

Why must people continue to walk forward while following a goal they can't see?

I don't know the reason why.
However, there is one thing that is certain - I was the one who choose a spring where nothing began and nothing change.

In The Pouring Rain.

When you see those people, don't you think the happier ones are those who are wiling to give up anything for something they want to obtain ?

Cause it gives them the ability to run in the rain.

On My Bike..

When I was young, while riding my bike I suddenly thought,

" If I was to ride like this forever, how far will I go?"

" If I continue on like this, where will I be?"

" The place that I reach, what will it look like?"

Once I reach Tokyo, I never turned around. I never stopped the pace of my journey. The more I pedaled, the more I felt the insecurity and plainness of my views of the future. Even my worries were slowly fading away. Also, the further I went, the more deeply I felt the importance of the things I was leaving behind and how I was distancing myself from them. Because.. I have a place I want to return to, that is why you have the motivation to continue this journey. Because, there's people I want to see. That is why I hope I can find the courage. I have friends I am proud of. That is why.. even when I am feeling sad and disappointed, I can still continue onwards. Finally, at the end of my journey, I saw a place with no wind or rain. To go back to the place that belonged to me and everyone.. Its time to go back. To go back again on the same lengthy journey.
