10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

Do not abandon the hero within your soul.Friedrich Nietzsche

Nietzsche: "Do not abandon the hero that dwells within your soul." #shorts

Do not abandon the hero within your soul. —Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche, a classical philologist often interpreted as a representative thinker of existentialism.

His famous words, “Do not abandon the hero in your soul,” convey the importance of valuing yourself.

Everyone possesses talents and potential within, but when we compare ourselves to others or face a string of setbacks, our spirits can break.

However, if you give up on yourself, that’s when everything truly ends.

These words teach us to believe in ourselves to the very end.

Even if you’re knocked down 99 times, all you need is to stand up the 100th time.Vincent van Gogh

If you’re pursuing your goals and dreams, you’ll probably fail many times.

When you fail, you can lose confidence and think, “It’s impossible for me.

I should just quit.” At times like that, remember this quote from Van Gogh: “If you fall down 99 times, get up the 100th.” With that attitude, you can overcome any failure.

They say failure is the mother of success and essential for growth, so don’t be afraid to fail—keep challenging yourself.

If you ever hear a voice within you say, ‘You can’t paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.Vincent van Gogh

This is a quote that gives us courage when starting something new.

Everyone begins from a place of not being able to do it.

But if you avoid doing it just because you can’t, you’ll never be able to do it for the rest of your life.

If you want to take that path and master it, you have to start by trying.

By continuing, you’ll build confidence, and before you know it, that voice saying “I can’t” will fall silent.

Don’t lose to your own weakness—go challenge your dreams and goals.

Great achievements are not made by a momentary impulse, but are accomplished through the accumulation of small things.Vincent van Gogh

If you feel you tend to heat up quickly and cool off just as fast, why not keep this quote in mind? These are words left by Van Gogh, reminding us that to achieve great things, what matters is not fleeting emotions or actions, but how we sustain and build upon our passion and conviction.

Van Gogh kept painting throughout his life, believing in himself even without anyone’s recognition.

I hope you, too, find something you can be absorbed in for a lifetime, just like Van Gogh.
