What’s something you would attempt if you were guaranteed not to fail.

Everything has its price.

The greater the deed, the higher the risk.

Sometimes, you gain a lifetime of wealth, but the cost is health—or family.

Sometimes, it’s the opposite.

You may lose fame and fortune, yet keep the truest parts of yourself.

Even if success were guaranteed, it would never come without a cost.

Maybe not now, but the wheel of fate will turn—bringing peaks, bringing valleys.

I often think of that song I love, Can You Celebrate?, and its singer—Namie Amuro.

Her life feels like a reflection of fate itself.

Childhood marked by divorce and hardship; youth that exploded into fame.

Fate did not spare her—loss, betrayal, valleys so low.

Yet she stood again, shining once more, even reclaiming what had been taken.

Tai chi has black and white.

Life is the same.

Light and shadow coexist, and together, they make a whole.
