Week 11 / Individual Counseling / 160602

I poured out the story of feeling oddly listless lately. Last week I talked about having gained 'confidence,' but behind that positive side, on the other hand, lay a listlessness.

Hmm, people's gazes are a bit bothersome. I still think these days that I wish people would just respect whatever I do.

Separately from that, the university life I'm living these days—reading lots of books, contemplating, gaining insight, and reflecting on my own behavior—this recent period has been the university life I dreamed of.

Another thing is, hmm, the realization that I've been trying only to find people's 'special points,' that people aren't such different beings, yet I seem to have fixated too much on a particular person's 'specialness.' I don't think I'll do that going forward. Of course people are 'different,' but that doesn't mean they're enormously different.
