Learn from others’ mistakes

—

,

Though Esperia had finally managed to create a stable society, nothing was perfect.

Many Espers still opposed the new rules set by the Seven Shapes.

But this too served as a lesson to grow from.

Every Esper is different, and the ways we adapt to new situations differ as well. The Shadows of some Espers were very strong indeed, and for others, working on their StarDust had begun a bit too late.

It is never too late, but to realize this, it can be helpful to learn from the mistakes of others.

One common trait among all Espers, however, was their quick ability to mimic the behaviors of those around them.

This was especially true for children, but because their StarDust was not yet fully developed, it was harder for them to truly grasp what should be learned from mistakes.

“Balance doesn’t mean a flat line, but rather the ups and downs we learn to control,” thought Atma.

    The habits we build, one small step at a time, are like seeds that must be nurtured gently but steadily each day in order to bear fruit. “One step a day, day after day,” could be a way of thinking that every Esper remembers when seeing Shala. A few minutes of training or work may…
