Angela Aki – 手紙 (letter)

I stumbled across this older song from a Japanese artist named Angela Aki.

This song is about a 15 year old girl who is writing a letter to her future self expressing her worries concerns and fears that she is feeling in her heart.

To which the future self replies and tells her to not give up on her dreams and to keep fighting for what you believe in no matter what the obstacles look like around you.

This is such a fantastic song. For all of you who understand Japanese this is for you.

I found the lyrics and a simple translation here for those who are interested.

KEEP ON BELIEVING IN YOUR DREAMS!

It’s time we start to love.
