I'm fine.

How much heartache is contained in a grown-up man's words, "I'm fine.

Do you know what the most common lie told by adult men is?

I'm fine.

The breakdown of an adult man often starts with the words "I'm fine." You smile and say it's fine, but you hide all your sadness.

Only oneself knows how sad the exhaustion and grievance that have long been trapped in one's heart are.

How much one longs to be embraced and understood by others in the heart!

How I wish there were someone who could understand your indifference and comprehend what you said, "It's okay."

It can be seen that beneath your unbreakable appearance, there is a child getting wet in the rain who needs an umbrella.

The bitterness hidden behind these smiles, these are the grievances swallowed alone.

Have you ever experienced the scene where true feelings kept you back home in your dreams?
