    Good speech!

    made me think of the Japanese phrase which I absolutely love

    “がんばって” (Do your best)

    This was a wonderful piece that was moving and intelligent from beginning to end. Oddly enough the part that resonated the most with me was where Mr. Uematsu mentioned that people who lack confidence often feel the need to buy it with money, and then boast about it to others, belittling them in the process. Very insightful.
