• A woman is like a rose, you are good to her, she will blossom; if you are not good to her, she will wither.
• The sad thing you swore when you put on that ring is that most people promise to stay alive for good or bad, and they're actually referring to only the good parts.
• It's hard to show love when you feel unmotivated. But the truest love is not based on feelings, but on the determination to act thoughtfully, even if seemingly unrequited.
• If a man wants to win a woman's heart, he will study her and understand her likes and dislikes, habits and hobbies. But once you win the heart and marry her, you often stop studying her. If he studied her before marriage as much as he graduated from high school, then he should continue his research until he graduated from college, got a master's degree, and finally got a doctorate. It was a lifelong journey that brought his heart closer to hers.

Somewhere far away in Hokkaido, there is a beautiful little place called Urazuki, and there is a simple café called mani bread café.
