Description
Book Introduction
When life feels so hard
I wish someone would understand my feelings like this
Sentences that will calm and comfort you when you're tired.
Even as an adult, I cried sometimes.
50,000 copies commemorative tear edition
I thought becoming an adult meant learning to hide my emotions and pretend to be okay even when things were hard or painful.
I have always believed that being an adult means trying to be strong, not overflowing, not shaking, not collapsing.
But if you suppress and ignore the moments when your heart is breaking, you will inevitably end up with an internal illness.
After going through that process, the author realizes that it is better to be honest about one's feelings without hurting others.
This book offers quiet comfort to those who have ignored their own pain while living up to the world's expectations.
I calmly embrace the days when I pretended everything was fine, the emotions I had to swallow silently, and even the times when I was so upset that I couldn't sleep.
The author's story, which he kept to himself for a long time because he could not easily share it with anyone, evokes deep empathy, as if reading my own diary.
If you slowly turn the pages of a book, you might find yourself whispering to yourself.
“It’s okay to cry today.”

Epilogue
Detailed image
Into the book
From the moment I was born
The die called 'I' has been cast.
I can turn back time
The dice that fell on the floor
You can't catch it again.
Even if I continue to worry endlessly,
Even if I live stuck in the past that cannot be turned back
Because it doesn't change.
“I just live in the moment.”
--- From the "Prologue"
In a way, it is incredibly sad to hide oneself and only focus on the smiling faces of others.
That's like calling yourself a clown.
The other person thought of me as an easy person and treated me just that much.
Only then did I realize that my method was wrong.
This means that a relationship that was created by cutting away at 'me' can only be maintained by continuously giving my flesh away, and that if 'me' is not present in the relationship, then the relationship is meaningless.
It is clear that it will eventually reach its limits.
--- p.19
No matter how hard I try
If the sadness that has consumed me does not go away,
You can get so immersed in it that you forget about it
Something is needed.
--- p.35
Wittgenstein said, "Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent."
It is not only difficult to truly express one's deep feelings to someone, but it is also nearly impossible to fully convey them because there is no proper way to express them.
--- p.104
I believed this was the last time.
Things didn't go well from the start.
I really thought this was the last time
It still didn't work out well.
Maybe the phrase 'the real last'
Under the pretext of it being the last chance
I wanted to look back once more
It may have been my foolishness.
--- p.128
There is a saying that if there is a meeting, there is a parting.
It seems to be much more painful than I thought.
A life that may never end
I must live my life grateful for being able to be together.
--- p.195
A breakup hurts as much as you gave your heart, and when you fall into the abyss, it hurts as much as you climbed up.
No matter how splendid a moment may be, once it has passed, it feels so empty that it feels like a fleeting moment.
You can't live every day as if it were the best day ever.
In this life of ups and downs, the way I have chosen to live is to live a little lukewarmly in order to reduce the emotional gap.
