Namakura Gatana (1917) [With music and text]

[@averyrowan]

I apologize guys for the three year delay here is the first song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHOWcpp7bplpoaM Second song: Ukare Tsubam Note: he is not visiting a monk he is purchasing a sword from a sword smith. I made this when I was eleven years old so I’m unsure how integrable my narration was. (This was my interpretation.) Still trying to figure out the second

[@ozlemmelco5240]

"Do you ever wish miracles existed?" "yes" "Why don't they?" "I don't know" That day I walked out of the house, just like any other day. Every day blurred together in my eyes. What was the difference in a year and a day? I don't remember the last time I felt pure utter happiness. Smiling just to smile. A simple emotion that can make or break life. I suppose a sort of bitterness has overtaken me with the idea of happiness. I believe we all want others to think we are happy but in the end we are all a mirage of ourselves. I'm not happy. He's not happy. She's not happy. I was walking by the woods one day mom. I just wanted to say I really miss you. Sometimes the only thing that brings me peace now is the thought of you; or on rare days a walk in the woods. Its more lonely though. As if, without you theirs not much worth in these woods. You made these walks a lot funner. The fragments of light cracking through to the floor of the forest, remind me of you. I was the canopy; and you were the light breaking through to my floor. You made me happy mom. I really miss you. Maybe this forest isn't ugly just because your not here. but I can't see it with all the arrays of color I use to remember. Why was I happier when I was younger? Is it because you were there with me? Is it because I was thoughtless? Or because I was blissfully ignorant? Why does it seem we are forced into reality when we become adults? Why is it a known perception you can't be ignorant? What's wrong with ignorance mom? What's wrong with ignorance if it brings you bliss? ha. Maybe that's ignorant. Life has so many in's and out's that theirs no time to point them all out. Let me live ignorant mom. Let me be blissful. Maybe the days when I looked at the window in a rainy day, and made water droplets race to the finish line are over. Maybe the times I laughed as I had no care in the world are over. Maybe the times where I didn't think of the past, but living in the present are over. but why ma? Why are they over? as I look down, with my eyes swelling with tears. I noticed a silhouette from afar. My tears dropped, and soon I could see it taking the shape of a girl. A girl. A girl with a red dress, and a white cape. With a ribbon on her head, and leave's flowing around her. She looked magical. Strangely happy. She had no smile on her face, but she didn't look sad. She looked.. content. It seemed as if she wasn't stuck in the past like so many of us, yet she lived in the present. With her magic, and floating leaves she just lived. Do miracles exist? "I don't know, but maybe its all about faith. About taking the jump that miracles do exist. and even if you fall, a scraped knee isn't so bad right? we got them all the time when we were younger. So why are we so afraid to fall now?" Don't observe the girl in the woods next time. She won't always be there. She passes on the torch to you. Next time you be that girl in the woods. Change someones life. pass the torch, and give miracles to others. living in the past is easy. but living in the present is better

He constantly loses in the anime and has zero wins in the whole show but never gives up making his will inspirational and meaningful.
