The First Step Toward a Guided Future The digital clock in the corner of the room displays “11:11.” The moment I see those numbers, a gentle smile spreads across my face. A warm sensation rises from deep within me. —Everything will be okay. I have already made my decision. Yet, each time I see those numbers, I feel as though an unseen force is reassuring me, softly pushing me forward with a quiet but unwavering confidence. “You are on the right path. You are moving exactly where you are meant to be.” A gentle voice seems to echo within me. […]
When Gratitude Flows, Reality Shifts Beads of condensation trickle down the side of my iced coffee. The ice clinks softly, signaling that the glass is empty. Despite the air conditioning, my throat feels parched. I reach for the water pitcher on the corner table, pouring a slow stream into my glass. But as I tip the pitcher, an ice cube slips out unexpectedly, sending water spilling over the rim and across the table. “Ah…” I instinctively search for something to wipe up the mess. “What are you doing…?” Looking up, I see my mother smiling wryly as she picks up […]
Connecting the Past and Future—Healing the Inner Child “Let’s play catch!” A lively voice echoes from the back of the waiting room. Turning around, I see my nephew running toward me, his face beaming with joy. In his small hands, he clutches a well-loved baseball glove. Watching his excitement as he bounds toward me, I feel a gentle warmth spread in my chest. His innocent enthusiasm reminds me of my younger self. “Not right now,” his father says, gently explaining. The light in my nephew’s eyes dims slightly. “Maybe later,” I say, offering a reassuring smile. After a brief moment […]
The Abundance Brought by the Cycle of Trust A small burst of laughter catches my ear. In the waiting room, a child clings to his father’s arm, giggling playfully. “Look! I’m getting so tall!” The father smiles gently, holding his child’s hands firmly. Watching them idly, I pull out my smartphone. A notification flashes on the screen— “Client’s revision request attached.” It’s the usual message from the usual contact person. In the past, just seeing this email would have unsettled my stomach. I would hesitate to open it, sometimes leaving my phone face down to avoid it altogether. But now, […]
Beyond Letting Go of Anxiety I slowly sink into a leather sofa, taking a deep breath. The table in front of me, with its rich wooden texture, exudes a quiet presence. Resting on it is a glass of iced coffee, beads of condensation glistening on its surface, and a single white envelope placed neatly beside it. I pick up the envelope with my fingertips, the texture of the paper feeling strangely vivid. For a moment, a memory from the past resurfaces, sending a faint ripple through my chest. But this time, it is not anxiety. Instead, it gently dissolves into […]
The Day My Financial Anxiety Changed I stand before a large mirror, adjusting my tie lightly. For a moment, my eyes meet my own reflection. Something feels different from the person I was a year ago. No, rather than saying “something has changed,” perhaps it’s more accurate to say, “I’ve finally caught up with myself.” That thought sends a warm sensation spreading deep within my chest. Looking back, this past year has brought significant changes to my world. I’ve become more aware of small signs and shifts in my emotions. A year ago, I might have overlooked them or turned […]
Beyond Synchronicity Ever since my interactions with Okane-san, I feel like I’ve become more attuned to the changes around me and the messages they carry. Whether they are truly signs or just my imagination, I can’t say for sure. But one thing is certain—I have become more aware of the presence of a larger flow than ever before. The old me would have been swayed by every coincidence, letting external events dictate my emotions. But not anymore. Through my conversations with Okane-san, I’ve begun to understand the concept of energy circulation. A solid core has formed within me. It’s not […]
Discovering the Hidden Signs in Coincidence Lately, I’ve been seeing repeating numbers everywhere. At first, I thought it was just my imagination, but whether it’s a car’s license plate or an advertisement that catches my eye, the same numbers appear again and again. And it’s not just that. Today, several coincidences lined up one after another—running into an old friend at the cafe, receiving an unexpected business opportunity from a former client. Are these mere coincidences? Or do they carry some kind of meaning? As I pondered this, I picked up my phone and sent a message to Okane-san. “Okane-san, […]
The Moment of Connection With my stomach full, a wave of drowsiness slowly crept in. To shake it off, I took a sip of hot coffee while staring at my laptop screen. “Alright, time to get going…” I placed the empty coffee cup gently on the table and packed my laptop into my bag. The lunchtime rush had passed, and the once-bustling cafe was gradually settling down. Seats that had been fully occupied earlier were now beginning to empty out. After paying the bill and giving the staff a small nod, I pushed open the cafe door. A crisp breeze […]
A Fateful Encounter Led by Coincidence I glanced at the clock. “11:11.” “Almost lunchtime, huh…” Lately, work had been relatively calm. There was a time when, thanks to Okane-san’s advice, I had been consciously focusing on energy circulation, and everything in my life—work included—flowed astonishingly smoothly. It was as if I were riding the wind, with events unfolding effortlessly one after another. However, that momentum had gradually begun to settle. As the busyness eased, a hollow feeling started to grow inside me. I was no longer haunted by the overwhelming anxiety I used to feel. Yet, a new question crept […]
