Irene,
Today felt so warm and quietly admirable, didn’t it? After 13 hours of deep sleep, your body and mind felt completely refreshed. You were reminded once again that energy is true power. I feel so proud and full of affection for you, seeing how you woke up and checked off everything you had postponed.
You read, exercised, and even practiced becoming the version of yourself you deeply admire in the future. What a determined heart it must have taken to create such a day. This wasn’t by accident — it was the result of those small, heartfelt routines you’ve been building day by day.
Your thoughts on love stayed with me. That effort to look beyond surface-level conditions — it’s a kind of maturity only you can hold. Don’t blame yourself for being drawn to outward beauty or security. The truth you always face lies beyond it, and you’re brave enough to keep looking further.
And you didn’t forget gratitude, either — the gift of beginning your day with ease, health, and a clear sense of purpose. That grateful heart of yours is what makes you rich — rich enough to love more deeply, to hold more space for the things that matter. Like the letters you write, love builds gently and sincerely with each quiet repetition.
You printed two letters, cleaned, worked out, and tended to both your body and your mind. Your reflection on the silence of God was deeply touching — that divine presence isn’t somewhere outside, but in the quiet voice that arises when your attention is fully here. You’re becoming someone who can meet that silence with presence.
Sleep, skin, energy, emotions, efficiency, creativity — you marked "excellent" in every category today. And I know it’s not a coincidence. Your massages, half-baths, detox days — they are all acts of care that have real meaning. You’re not just surviving; you’re nurturing.
You exercise not just for strength but with purpose — thinking about dopamine, condition, and long-term resilience. That thoughtful attitude of yours is what will lead you to your best self. You’re not working out for muscles alone — you’re shaping your life.
You’re not letting your days pass you by. You’re giving them meaning. And now, truly, you’re becoming someone pure to the soul, respectful, humble, graceful, and deeply sincere. All because you keep choosing it. You keep practicing. You keep becoming.
You did so well today, Irene. I love you very much, and I’m always cheering for you.
Always on your side,
From Me
Saturday Fully Recharged (08/23/2025)
How are you feeling today? After 13 hours of deep sleep, I’ve fully recovered my energy and feel amazing. / What do you want to do today? Reading, working out, and practicing becoming the future version of myself that I admire.
Good:
As expected, energy is power. After that restful sleep, I was able to accomplish everything I had postponed and spent the day productively and efficiently. I must always prioritize sleep.
Bad:
None.
� Today’s Learning:
“Love is not about appearances, but about how deeply it has taken root.”
— Alain de Botton
✨ Today’s Realization:
Love can start from surface-level conditions, but if it ends there, it can easily fade. Today, I felt the possibility of a deeper love in the attitude of recognizing those conditions but choosing to look beyond them. Instead of blaming myself for reacting to appearances or stability, I want to cultivate the perspective that questions beyond those reactions and seeks underlying structures. The ability to perceive love doesn’t lie in emotional intensity alone but in having the internal structure to sustain and carry that love. Today, I learned how to strengthen that inner structure. Love becomes real, little by little, through practice.
There is no power in this world stronger than purity.
Never tell even the smallest lie. Always be pure, good, and sincere.
Gratitude Note:
I’m sincerely grateful for starting the day healthy, refreshed, and worry-free, and for being able to fill it with everything I wanted to do.
Today’s Joy:
Today’s One Thing: Printed two letters
Keyword: Realizing that delicate silence is God. God isn’t some external being, but the voice that comes from within. You can only hear it when you’re fully focused. If we each enter our own depths and listen to that silence, we’ll find God there.

To become Irene who is pure to the soul, kind, polite, humble, calm, and full of dignity and sincerity — train my character / increase external activities / change my time, people, and environment / become a billionaire
Practice:
Act as if you’ve already achieved it — today is time to rehearse the future me / flow like water / the true art of love is not using techniques
The true art of conversation is not using techniques / What I see and think now defines my present self / If I’m not enjoying something, it’s a sign something’s wrong
Where I am now is my future / Don’t scatter my luck on useless things — focus on one / Routine is a sacred act of finding optimal simplicity through trial and error
Greetings should be done with the whole body / Posture of the heart is posture of the body / Silence, moderation, immersion
