As the year draws to a close, recalling Angelina's Mont Blanc in my heart, I softly ponder: what have I truly accomplished this year?
December 5th—autumn has slipped away, and winter season has quietly arrived.

The moist, chestnut sweetness lingers in memory, whispering lessons of life's fleeting yet warm transience.
This year, my goal of traveling to America came true; I replaced my long-used computer and smartphone with new ones, and Father's third memorial passed peacefully... Now, I notice a calm settling in my heart.
Two years approach since leaving the company, yet this sense of freedom and quiet is new to me. With duties fulfilled, surely my heart has shifted—from past experiences—to a phase befitting now: cherishing my own time.
It simply required time.
The dream of mastering English lies still far ahead. Yet, because of the effort I've put in, I shouldn't lose confidence.
Like pure white cream, I try not to forget pure softness. Now, my heart feels gently freed by the flow of time, arising from those very struggles.
Cherishing myself, from lessons lived through action, I step forward anew—toward the self deepening next year.
