With an open mind

Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, was appreciated by all the Espers.
In every situation, she would listen openly or make a calm judgment. Her daily attitude toward anyone she met was a reflection of her pure heart.

“As much as possible, I try my best to keep an open mind,” she would say.

“It is not easy every day, but we can all work on it, little by little, day by day.”

Her gentle voice was full of trust, and she was the living symbol that empathy and compassion were essential pillars of a world of peace and harmony.

“There will be times when you forget about trying to be open. This is when you could try reminding yourself of Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, and my good friend.”

“Of course, the more people who keep an open mind, the easier it becomes. The discovery of how the StarDust within each of us works was a gift for Esperia, because it became a common ground for all the Espers.”

“Let’s try our best to keep an open mind as much as we can!”
