The kanji above reads seishinryouku. It's an interesting phrase that means strength of mind.
There's something awesome about strong-headed women. They know what they want. They're willing to do the what is needed to get there. And they're willing to fight for it, if needs be.
And that is a truly wonderful trait to have.
I think I have grown to be more seishinryouku. I have also been a bit stubborn. I have made a lot of changes in my life. And I think I've learned to have a strength of mind and will.

I have a bit of 精神力 myself. I consider myself strong and confident.
ReplyDeleteHey, Atsuhime is over. Are you watching the next series?? I catch glimpses while I record it for my aunt, but otherwise, I haven't really sat down to watch. Sensei would be mad at me!! :D
I know. I'm catching up now. It only took me a few months to get towards the end.
ReplyDeleteI have been watching Tenchijin. It's really good. I'm enjoying it quite a bit.
I just recorded the last Atsuhime for my aunt today. She didn't live so long, did she? What a tough life that lady had!
ReplyDeleteI know, but it's the tough times that can make a woman strong.
