“I don’t know if I’m happy or unhappy. But there’s one thing I do know. You can convince yourself to be happy or unhappy. It just depends on how you choose to see things.”
Genki Kawamura, 世界から猫が消えたなら [Sekai kara Neko ga Kietanara]

“If my life were a film, it would have to find a way of depicting my evolving perspective. How I’ve seen my own life has changed over time. I would feel affection for scenes that I’d hated before and laugh during scenes where I’d originally cried. A past love interest is now long forgotten”

“It's a little magic trick you can play on yourself. Whenever you feel sad and lonely, just smile and close your eyes. Do it as many times as you have to.”

“...whether it's a happy death or an unhappy death depends on how you've lived your life.”
Genki Kawamura, If Cats Disappeared from the World

Genki Kawamura
“Once you become aware of your impending death, you have to make a compromise in accepting the loss of the life you wish you could have led and the reality of your imminent death. Sure, there will always be regrets and broken dreams, but you have to go easy on yourself. Over the last few days, I’ve come to realise that there is certain beauty in those regrets, they are proof of having lived. Maybe I will regrets some of my decisions when the moment comes, but that’s ok, No matter how you slice it, life is full of regrets anyway.
I was never able to be myself completely or live my life exactly how I wanted to, I am not even sure if I ever figure out what exactly being myself and living out my dreams really meant. So I guess I am going to die with all those failures and regrets, all those unfulfilled dreams, all the people I’ve never met, all the things I’ve never tasted and all the places I’ve never been. I am taking all that with me to my grave, and I am ok with that. In the end, I am satisfied with who I am and the life I’ve lived, I am just happy to have been here at all.”
