Your Loved Ones

For children, they are your parents and siblings. Then come friends at school or work. Later, a partner, and your own children. Then the cycle repeats.

With the flow of time, we sometimes forget to truly care for our loved ones. Old history may have loosened bonds, or simply living our lives leads us down separate paths.

What about adding to your daily routine a moment to smile, show appreciation, and offer gratitude for your loved ones—just because they are here, because you were fortunate enough to be connected to them?

We often take for granted that our loved ones will always remain by our side.

Yet, sadly, there are moments when we realize this isn’t always true.

There is no need to wait to express love to those we care for.

What about taking more time for our loved ones?

    The Element of Wind focused on interactions with others more than the other elements. Of course, being of another element like Fire or Water didn’t prevent one from leaning toward this trait, but the Espers of the Wind had the most natural affinity for it. Instinctively, they could sense the presence of their inner Shadow,

    There were many debates taking place in the Great Library of Esperia, a place where all the Espers of the Five Elements could gather, discuss with one another, and exchange ideas and opinions.

    It had been a while since we last took a look at Guruko and Simba, her little platypus companion.
