THE ANSWERS

“If you were to sum up Jiro’s sushi in a nutshell..Ultimate simplicity leads to purity.”
From the Shrimp Dealer
"These days the first thing people want is an easy job. Then, they want lots of free time. And then, they want lots of money. But they aren't thinking of building their skills. When you work at a place like Jiro's, you are committing to a trade for life."
And from Jiro
"Once you decide on your occupation... you must immerse yourself in your work. You have to fall in love with your work. Never complain about your job. You must dedicate your life to mastering your skill. That's the secret of success... and is the key to being regarded honorably."

I've been seeking for comfort and escaping isn't an answer. Reality is harsh but one must strive to feel alive. Keep in mind what has driven me so far and kept me going on for this long. If it wasn't a passion to thrive in my career, i wouldn't be this tough.
Sometimes i feel tired for hiding away my vulnerability. But if someone cares enough, maybe they'll see. The world is always full of people seeking pleasure in your weakness. Sympathy is a rare notion. I didn't allow myself to be weak.
But sometimes, when I couldn't help but behave childishly and vulnerably in front of somebody, it means i have trusted the person a lot.
Post-graduation brings me more confusion than ever. The thought of an unclear future is scarring me off. Uncontrolled anxiety is bothering me recently. How i wish i could explain this but it's so hard.
Until I figure out more answers, I hope life goes on smoothly.
