“Wish Upon a Star”

If you repeat a wish three times to a shooting star,
The wish will come true, so they say.

How on earth can you repeat it three times in just an instant…
It is physically impossible.
Nonetheless it is an apt saying, don’t you think?
We try to believe it is possible.

But wait, here is a different interpretation.

What is important is always holding that wish in your heart.
Every day want it to come true with every fiber of your being.
Keep at it 365 days,
And your wish will come true, most definitely.

Your thoughts spur you to action.
Sure and steady action gives you self-confidence.
New wishes nudge at you day in, day out.
What is important is to never give up.

Those wishes have already reached the stars.


「星に願いを」

流れ星に願いを3回唱えると
それが叶うという

一瞬の間に3回も願いを唱えるなんて…
物理的には不可能だとわかっている
しかし言いえて妙な伝承ではないか
できれば信じてみたいものだ

でも解釈はちょっと違う

大切なのはその願いを常に思うこと
毎日、欠かすことなく想うこと
それを365日念い続けたなら
願いは必ず叶う

思いはあなたを行動へと駆り立てる
着実な行動はあなたに自信を与える
願いは日々、近づいて来るだろう
大切なのは時間を制限せず諦めないこと

既にその願いは星まで届いている
