no one knows every detail of world history or every social issue.
the real test of character is how you respond when a mistake happens. what matters isn’t being perfect—it’s recognizing the issue, taking responsibility, learning from it, and moving forward. that’s how we grow. knowledge is built through moments like this.
uprm did exactly that, and i’m proud to support an artist who handles things with such sincerity.
sadly, it's true. it's not an excuse, but an unfortunate reality for most people. attacking people who living outside US for not having indepth knowledge is honestly irrational.
lack of awareness is not the same as support, although that doesnt make it any better +
Japanese actor Hiroyuki Sanada spoke about the contradictions of human nature:
“Some people dream of having a swimming pool at home, while those who have one hardly ever use it. Those who have lost a loved one feel a profound sense of loss, while others often complain about their living relatives. Those without a partner long for one, while those who have one often don't appreciate it. The hungry would give anything for a meal, while the satiated complain about the taste of their food. Those without a car dream of owning one, while those who have a car are always looking for a better one.”
The key to happiness is gratitude: truly seeing and appreciating what we already have, and understanding that somewhere, someone would give anything for what we take for granted.
신민아가 이영지에게 해준 결혼 조언.youtube
이영지가 신민아에게 물어봄.
“어떤 사람은 오래 만나도 결혼 안 하고,
어떤 사람은 짧게 만나도 결혼하던데
언제 이 사람과 결혼해야겠다는 확신이 드냐”고.
여기서 신민아 답변이 꽤 현실적이었음.
결혼은 늦게 할수록 좋은 것 같다고 함.
근데 이 말이
많은 사람을 만나보라는 뜻이 아니었음.
핵심은 결혼 전에
내가 어떤 사람인지 충분히 알아야 한다는 것.
내가 어떤 관계에서 편안한지,
어떤 상황에서 무리하는지,
어떤 사람 앞에서 작아지는지,
어떤 사람과 있을 때 나답게 있는지.
이걸 모른 채 결혼하면
상대가 좋은 사람인지보다
내가 왜 이 관계를 선택했는지도 모를 수 있음.
그리고 더 인상적이었던 말은 이거였음.
결혼할 사람을 알아보는 것보다
아닌 사람을 이미 알고 있는 경우가 많다는 것.
좋아하니까 외면할 뿐이지,
사실 마음 한쪽에서는 알고 있음.
이 사람과 있으면 자꾸 지친다.
즐겁긴 한데 편하지 않다.
계속 내가 애쓰고 있다.
만나고 오면 몸과 마음이 소모된다.
이런 신호들이 이미 있는데
설렘이나 재미를 건강한 관계로 착각할 때가 많음.
결국 신민아가 말한 결혼 조언은
“좋은 사람을 빨리 찾아라”가 아니라
먼저 나를 알고,
아닌 관계의 신호를 외면하지 말고,
편안함과 안정감을 주는 사람을 알아볼 수 있는 사람이 되라는 말 같았음.
결혼은 타이밍의 문제가 아니라
나를 아는 깊이의 문제일 수도 있겠다는 생각.

中新文娱(努力采访版)RedNote (xhs) and weibo update with #CHENLE 🩵
chenle was asked whether he felt any pressure participating in voices of youth, especially since he’s known for being competitive 🥹
he said that when it comes to games, of course he wants to win. but he’s also someone who can accept losing.
when it comes to singing, though, he doesn’t think about things the same way. he doesn’t believe in comparing himself to other people and thinking:
“i have to sing better than this person.”
“i have to sing better than that person.”
because there will always be too many people to compare yourself to, and too many people who are better. to him, that’s not realistic.
instead, he believes success is simply being better than he was the day before. not being better than someone else. just being better than yesterday.
he said he does give himself pressure because a certain amount of pressure is important. but he never lets it become the kind of pressure that consumes him. “if i’m better today than i was yesterday, that’s already success.” 😭🫶🏻
