Japan and America/Britain are an opposing positive field, meaning that both cultures are fascinated with each other, such as Beckham in Tokyo, or Nintendo. Japan is just like any other place, so i dont feel that i should think of the people any differently, or that they're better or worse.
They're just like you and me.
They're just like you and me.

We have control over what happens to us in the future. There is no destiny or fate. There is nothing that will happen for sure. We determine our future from what we do now. We make our own future from our own actions, and nothing or no one else is responsible.
If you work hard every day to train for a sport, you will succeed and win. It is not the work of God or fate that you have succeeded; it is YOU who have made this success for yourself. Had you not trained, you would not have this success. No fate but what we make. You made yourself a better athlete, so you excelled. You made your own fate.

A cliche of debatable validity.
On one side, this phrase may be seen to be reassuring, allowing a person to accept the ills of their life, whatever those might be, with grace, knowing that with effort, or wisdom, those ills can be surmounted, or even changed into something positive.
On the other side, this meaning can be seen to be irrelevant; the phrase ultimately becomes empty, asking a person to acquiesce to, in the form of the acceptance of "the good with the bad", the ill of the modern world in any or all of its forms.

To create a future whether there is the on you like or the one you don’t or something in between. We can create it yet not solo or solely based on our own volition ; God, God through other people and other things like our environments but we are given choices so do take credit but not all

When you ask someone if they want to do something with or for you and they say no with a little tude (attitude).
Hey, We are going to a show, do you want to go? or Hey, can you help me move? They say no, you say "what ever makes your balls bounce"
