sakura and ino not ending up together is infuriating not only because of the dissatisfaction with the stupid love triangle while sasuke didnt even like EITHER of them anyway, but also because the daughter of a flower shop marrying a girl named after a flower is so sweet it makes me want to vomit?? so many missed opportunities also sasuke is as gay as gay ever was
what my parents told me: you can do anything if you set your mind to it
what I wish my parents had told me: sometimes you will fail, and it will be scary and it will suck, but you will probably not die
I would also have appreciated: the fact that you can do something if you try very, very hard, does not actually obligate you to spend your life putting forth maximum effort to achieve it. It is okay to not be 1000% driven by life-consuming ambition and instead be satisfied with something less difficult.
