Beginning of 2026

Hey, it’s him again. Opening the year 2026, he begs permission to borrow the words of Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang: Never be afraid to change, for everything in this world is constantly in flux

Never before has he felt so uncertain about the future: the world is moving too fast and too differently from how it used to be. He does not know what tomorrow will bring, but he hopes he is brave enough to face it, no matter what it is

He was once tempted by wealth, hypnotized by fame, moved by beautiful souls or a 4.5-span bust. But then he realized: Her, who could describe the depth of the universe using vocabulary a third-grader like him could understand, her voice warm, her rhythm tranquil. His soul felt strangely at peace

He wishes his friends, far and near, find the true priority of their lives. No matter what tomorrow brings, this will be the compass guiding us to the places we wish to go
