Price: 1210 yen When we hear the word "patience," we tend to imagine a turtle shrinking its limbs and hiding in its shell. A turtle that has become small to protect itself, shut away in a hard, hard shell. However, that image doesn't truly represent meaningful "patience." It's rather the most uninteresting, backward-looking kind of "patience." There are several types of "patience." Truly meaningful "patience" is the kind that, when children acquire it, makes life more enjoyable. Nowadays, there are widespread concerns about the decline of children's "ability to live." We believe that one of the major reasons for this is that children haven't acquired truly useful "patience." Thank you for viewing ( .ˬ.)
