[Aku~Soku~Zan]
These people are the world to me. Their words are all the voices I dare hear. Their thoughts are all the opinions that really matter. Their sorrows are my pain. Their joy is my inspiration. They are what keeps me going. They have never let me down. I couldn't bear the idea of giving up these people, and so I hold them in my heart. They keep me on the straight and narrow, even when the path is hard. Without them I would fail. And without them, there would be no me. They are the future, for they are youth, but they are also now. They are the voices o tommorrow, and the souls of today. Past and present. They are forever They are my memories, and they are the presense. They are as real as my memories of them. Whether or not they are still around.
