His essays, which comfort the hearts of the weary and wandering, were published in Duran.
Author Eisuke Wakamatsu reveals the colorful side of life through the sentences and thoughts shared in the book in the midst of a difficult reality.
We pay attention to the subtle linguistic differences we encounter in everyday life, such as between life and living, sympathy and empathy, giving and sharing, and ask ourselves what values we truly need.
And the warm words wishing for everyone's peace are enough to soothe the readers' wounded hearts.

This conversation with the author through these powerful sentences becomes a journey to discover 'my one sentence', which has been dormant deep within me and which I didn't even know existed, and which has the power to rise again in the midst of my wandering.
This essay, which offers the courage to move forward toward true happiness and a true life, can be said to be a guide for taking the first step toward loving yourself.

Into the book
Life's sentences always spring up with a desperate experience.
Such sentences are encountered not in the breadth of life, but in the depth of life.
At this time, the sentence is both a letter and a light.
A simple sentence can become a light and brighten the darkness.
It is a sentence that has no special meaning in the real world that saves us from the darkness.
--- p.4
The eyes of love do not see only the present.
Past, present, and future are perceived as one 'time'.
Loving yourself doesn't just mean compromising with who you are.
It is an act of embracing the past and slowly moving toward the future.
--- p.10
The recipient is keenly aware of the difference between sympathy and empathy.
The eyes of compassion see the weakness in others, but the eyes of empathy see the courage to rise again behind the weak.
… … Someone is looking at the courage inside me.
It makes me realize the courage that lies dormant within me.
--- p.13
When we were talking to each other, we couldn't quite understand each other, but when we part ways and return home and are 'alone', we come to understand each other's feelings deeply.
You may be captivated by the words the other person says, but when you are alone, you realize the true meaning behind what the other person said.
--- p.26
When we say 'give', the subject is usually the so-called strong person.
… … Also, when we say ‘give,’ isn’t it because we are convinced that what we are giving is something we own or something under our authority?
On the other hand, the phenomenon of 'sharing' occurs only in places unrelated to the relationship of giving and receiving.
Because at the heart of sharing is not what someone owns, but what is given to someone.
People share the feeling that something is in their hands through someone else's action rather than as their own.

Publisher's Review
A prominent Japanese critic and essayist,
Eisuke Wakamatsu tells us
25 Prescriptions for Mental Healing!
To you who are tired
Giving you the strength to move forward
Sentences of Hope
“A sentence is both a letter and a light.
“A simple sentence becomes light and brightens the darkness.”
Eisuke Wakamatsu, a critic and essayist known in Japan for his beautiful writing.
An essay containing his words of hope and comfort was published in Duran.
He believes that to live a true life, we must focus on depth, not breadth. He encounters himself deeply in solitude and asks questions that penetrate the essence.
The sharp questions he poses about life and living, sympathy and empathy, the difference between giving and sharing, and the values we truly need... allow those who are tired of their busy daily lives and need time to take care of themselves, and those who are wandering in the burdensome world, to pause for a moment and reflect on their inner landscape.
And, hoping for peace in everyone's hearts, the sentences, written with delicate sensitivity, warmly embrace the weary so that they can stand up again.
His 25 prescriptions for healing the mind will comfort your weary heart and give you the strength to renew your journey to your true self.
A journey to true life,
Time to meet the sentences that lie dormant within me
“What we call destiny
It comes from inside the human being,
It is not something that comes from outside into the human being.
“You will gradually come to realize it.”_Rainer Maria Rilke
Author Eisuke Wakamatsu introduces sentences he has encountered so far and continues the story he wants to tell with all his heart.
Rainer Maria Rilke, Romain Rolland, Endo Shusaku, and many other authors he quotes in this essay expand his thoughts and sincerity about the essence of life.
In “When I Feel Alone, I Find the Sentence I’ve Been Looking For,” he says, “A simple sentence becomes light and brightens the darkness.”
Here, the simple sentence already exists deep within oneself, not in anyone else's, and that 'one sentence of mine' holds the most powerful power to illuminate the darkness.
According to him, the moment you discover your inner, dormant self-sentence is when you are truly ready to live life.
His various thoughts on sentences become a journey to discover 'my one sentence'.
To get in touch with myself deeply, I will need time in quiet solitude, away from the noise around me.
I hope that by talking with him, you can take a break from your busy daily life and enjoy some solitude, and that you will encounter 'my one sentence' that gives you the strength to rise again in the face of life's hardships and adversities.
