In the previous entry, I wrote about the importance of self confidence.
What we call "strong" people have attained it already, so they can keep their cool and always be what they are.
"It's completely up to you to create an image of the one you can never beat, you all can win shiais if you just do what you have learned through your practices after having self confidence."
---his son's kendo teachers always say to their students, even after shiais.

The day before yesterday, there was an awarding celemony of the essay contest for junior high students at Ibaraki Prefectural Library.
It was one of the assignments given for summer vacation.
My elder daughter's slogan (that was not a summer assignment but a work she did at social studies class) got a prize, but this time, I couldn't delight the prize.
I know I SHOULD delight it, but I was too worn out to do it in the days with my elder daughter sleeping late until before noon and sometimes staying at home all day.
Or rather,
She would be a NEET who waste national tax if I accepted her current lifstyle, I must correct it.
---I thought after the celemony.
These days, she gets up over 9 a.m., and sometimes after noon.
One of her doctors said that it was because of hypoglycemia, which made her wake up late and idly stay at home.
I've been struggling hard to look for a place to study with flexible schedules for her, hoping that she will get used to become active from the mornig.
I'm studying about low-carbohydrate diet, that is very good for irritation and apathy from hypoglycemia, hoping that she can enjoy her school again when she recovers her health.
Now I believe it's essential to live a stable life in her future, even though she ends up in a homemaker or interior decorator, it IS very important to be able to get up early and to be active at daytime.
Yesterday, she went to school while I was out looking for a private school with flexible schedule.
My mother took her by taxi on the way to her business.
I didn't expect her to go to school, and thought it a real big progress.
But I wondered one thing and asked her:
"Why do you refuse school lunch?"
She answered, "there's very little things I enjoy eating; some of them I hate, the others I'm allergic to."
"Is it possible for you to bring a lunchbox with you or have luch at home?", I said. But school lunch was her top secret she didn't want to talk about.
"School with no school lunch is my favorite place!! I don't even need good remarks for it, since I'm an USELESS person you know."
---she got so furious and was stubbornly shut in the car sobbing.
I found her self conficence was severely ruined, and it was us adults to ruin it subliminally, so she had to withdraw...
