“When you take one more step even if you are afraid
“Luck will be yours!”

CC's author of "I'll Jump With You," a bestseller for 96 consecutive weeks
The second new book that 1.5 million readers have been waiting for!
Postponing today's happiness by being concerned about what others think
An encouraging essay for you

CCICO, which received much love for its bestseller, “I’ll Jump with You,” has returned with its second new book.
In his first essay, Cicco, who had said he would gladly 'jump with you', offered affectionate comfort by crying alongside the readers.
Since then, Cicco, who has grown a step further, has written "Even the smallest star in the universe will help you" to give courage and support beyond comfort.


In this book, Cicco shares the miraculous moments she experienced in Europe, where she set out with only a desire to try, leaving behind vague fears.
Every time I encounter unexpected events on an unplanned trip, I keep encountering good fortune that makes things better thanks to the people I meet there.
Thanks to this, I realize that it's okay to take steps toward where my heart truly calls me, even if I'm afraid at every moment of choice.
When you take a courageous step into a world where you know nothing, the entire universe, even the smallest star in the sky, will help you, and they extend a helping hand to you, saying, “Let’s share this happiness together.”

In the end, I wonder what other people will think.
I think about that person's thoughts in my head
My thoughts are tormenting me

No matter what other people say
If I don't think about it in my head
Nothing bothers me.


What has been tiring me out so far is
It was me.

--- pp.106-107 From “Thoughts about Thoughts about Other People’s Thoughts”

I don't even know who did it or when
Doodles scribbled haphazardly
Berlin, the city that today's generation aspires to be
You created a trendy image.

Then my life too,
Do whatever you want along the way
Just scribbling things here and there
Even if I live leisurely, following the flow of my thoughts

Well, just a few of them sometimes
Even if you live with sincerity and care

When I looked back one day
It could be a pretty cool road.

--- pp.139-140 From "I became cool after living roughly"

Sudden rain like today
No matter how hard you try, you can't help but get wet
Rather, it gives a sense of relief.

The relief of being able to get wet without worrying about anything.


The difficulties we suddenly encounter in life
No matter how hard you try, you can't avoid it
It gives the same sense of relief.


So you don't have to try too hard.


I'd rather accept it all
Let's walk with graceful steps.
--- pp.160-161 From "The Elegant Princess in the Rain"

My little life too,
Even though it was eventful, there was a lot to remember
There are many stories of crying and laughing, even when I wanted to give up sometimes.
I must make this a very fun trip.

It's a journey that will end someday, so no matter what happens, it's fun

Because life ends someday, no matter what happens
Because it's just fun.

--- pp.340-341 From "My Soft, Wet Clothes"

By tackling all problems head-on
It would be great if I could solve them all
Sometimes you have to hold on and suffer
There are also issues where nothing changes.

Come, come!

At times like that, shout like this
Let's throw the problem away like an adult.

And the current me
Don't miss out on the opportunity to have fun
Enjoy all the happiness that is right in front of you.

Worrying about the future for no reason
So as not to blow the opportunity for present happiness.
--- pp.440-441 From "Forgetting the Scratched Car Door"

I have too high expectations for my goals and my life.
I'm struggling to get everything my way
Haven't we just divided each day into success and failure?

Like a journey where the more you try to be special, the more failure becomes noticeable.
The more you try to create a special life, the more failure you see.

The good times that come with an unexpected trip become an unexpected gratitude.
Just as a good time comes naturally on a trip full of expectations,

As your expectations of life get higher,
You lose sight of the value of precious time.

--- pp.476-477 From "An Unexpected Life"

To get the life you want
To be happy even once in a while
I thought I had to fight against this harsh world.

But I was fighting for nothing.

The world was not meant to be fought over in the first place.
Life wasn't meant to be hard on me.

The world is like
with a fierce appearance
He seemed like a kind-hearted monster.

Protect me
Trying to give me the best
A strong monster who loves me.
--- pp.480-481 From "The Whole Universe Will Help You"

I feel like my life has changed.

In a life lived alone and lonely
I finally feel like I have somewhere to lean on.

The whole world loves me
The whole universe loves me so much.

I don't want to fight anymore.
I will live relying on a world that loves me.

The whole universe will help me.
and,

The whole universe will help you.
The whole universe, really.

Every single star floating in the sky.
