One day you will be the one called Master (Naruto). You’ll be the one to treat others to ramen. We can’t stay kids forever.”
– Shikamaru Nara (Naruto)
In this world, whenever there is light, there are also shadows. As long as the concept of winners exist, there must also be losers. The selfish desire of wanting to maintain peace causes wars and hatred is born to protect love.
Masashi Kishimoto
There’s only one thing that can heal the heart… Only one… It’s love, Gaara.
Masashi Kishimoto
People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct and true. That’s how they define Reality. But what does it mean to be “correct” or “true”? Merely vague concepts… Their Reality may all be a mirage. Can we consider them to simply be living in their own world, shaped by their beliefs?
Being hurt inevitably breeds feelings of hatred towards your attacker. But when we hurt others, we have to deal with their hatred for us, and our own feelings of guilt. Knowing what it feels like to be hurt is exactly why we try to be kind to others. That’s what makes us humans.
There’s no advantage to hurrying through life.” -Shikamaru Nara
