I've always felt a sense of inadequacy regarding my past self, lacking significant aspirations or "dreams." It wasn't until later that I realized this was the reality for me—not knowing what I wanted to do or what I was capable of. I imagine this might continue into the future, but when I immerse myself in paper and doodles, everything becomes fantastical. I can dream freely, without any burden, doing whatever I wish. This feels like what I've been pursuing. Despite this, I have no particular regrets about my life or the time that has passed; after all, everything is a genuine experience I've lived through. "Though I may have nothing even now, the person I was during these times was completely real." I thought extensively about the patterns and colors, contemplating how to express the past and future. I discovered that the "Cap Shell" color (mint) in stencil printing signifies newness and creation, which is why I chose it as the color for 'Nothing' (present). It also represents my hope to create more new things in the future. For 'But Real' (past), I selected my favorite blue. While there might not be grand achievements, it represents everything I love and find comforting. This was the general thought process. For the inner pages this time, I specifically chose a soft, tender green, hoping you'll appreciate this combination as much as I do.
