Although we know that there is no perfect world out there, we sometimes can&#8217;t help but to complain about our life. So, today was one of those days for me, just feel stressed over some changes that might be happening to our family, worried about how that is going to affect us all.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, I told myself, I need to think more positively. In Japanese, there is an expression called, &#8220;Kotodama (\u8a00\u970a\u3001\u3053\u3068\u3060\u307e), which means, each word you say out loud has its own soul, especially the words you say it to yourself in your mind or words you tell to others. You want to be very careful as to what you say, because, by saying certain things, it will end up affecting your life just like the way you put it.<\/p>\n<p>So, thinking positive might not be easy sometimes, but here is the list of Japanese words that will help you think positively! \u00a0Not in any particular order, but words are listed as it came to my mind as I wrote them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shiawase (\u5e78\u305b\u3001\u3057\u3042\u308f\u305b) &#8211; happy<\/li>\n<li>Genki (\u5143\u6c17 \u3052\u3093\u304d) &#8211; well<\/li>\n<li>Hikari (\u5149\u308b\u3001\u3072\u304b\u308b) &#8211; light<\/li>\n<li>Kimochi no ii (\u6c17\u6301\u3061\u306e\u3044\u3044\u3001\u304d\u3082\u3061\u306e\u3044\u3044)- feels good<\/li>\n<li>Ikiteiru (\u751f\u304d\u3066\u308b\u3001\u3044\u304d\u3066\u308b) &#8211; alive<\/li>\n<li>Ichiban (\u4e00\u756a\u3001\u3044\u3061\u3070\u3093) &#8211; best<\/li>\n<li>Ochitsuku (\u843d\u3061\u7740\u304f\u3001\u304a\u3061\u3064\u304f) &#8211; calm<\/li>\n<li>Kawairashii (\u53ef\u611b\u3089\u3057\u3044\u3001\u304b\u308f\u3044\u3089\u3057\u3044) &#8211; pretty<\/li>\n<li>Kakoii (\u304b\u3063\u3053\u3044\u3044) &#8211; cool<\/li>\n<li>Yu-kino aru (\u52c7\u6c17\u306e\u3042\u308b\u3001\u3086\u3046\u304d\u306e\u3042\u308b) &#8211; courageous<\/li>\n<li>Subarashii (\u7d20\u6674\u3089\u3057\u3044\u3001\u3059\u3070\u3089\u3057\u3044) &#8211; wonderful<\/li>\n<li>Kireina (\u7dba\u9e97\u306a\u3001\u304d\u308c\u3044\u306a) &#8211; beautiful<\/li>\n<li>Kawaii (\u53ef\u611b\u3044\u3001\u304b\u308f\u3044\u3044) &#8211; cute<\/li>\n<li>Kenkouna (\u5065\u5eb7\u306a\u3001\u3051\u3093\u3053\u3046\u306a) &#8211; healthy<\/li>\n<li>Tanoshii (\u697d\u3057\u3044\u3001\u305f\u306e\u3057\u3044) &#8211; enjoyable<\/li>\n<li>Tanoshimu (\u697d\u3057\u3080\u3001\u305f\u306e\u3057\u3080) \u00a0&#8211; to enjoy<\/li>\n<li>Megumareru (\u6075\u307e\u308c\u308b\u3001\u3081\u3050\u307e\u308c\u308b) &#8211; blessed<\/li>\n<li>Ureshii (\u5b09\u3057\u3044\u3001\u3046\u308c\u3057\u3044) &#8211; happy<\/li>\n<li>Ko-unna (\u5e78\u904b\u306a\u3001\u3053\u3046\u3046\u3093\u306a) &#8211; luckly<\/li>\n<li>Sugoi (\u51c4\u3044\u3001\u3059\u3054\u3044) &#8211; great, amazing<\/li>\n<li>Kantan (\u7c21\u5358\u3001\u304b\u3093\u305f\u3093) &#8211; easy<\/li>\n<li>Nandemonai (\u4f55\u3067\u3082\u306a\u3044\u3001\u306a\u3093\u3067\u3082\u306a\u3044) &#8211; it&#8217;s nothing<\/li>\n<li>Okashii (\u53ef\u7b11\u3057\u3044\u3001\u304a\u304b\u3057\u3044) &#8211; funny<\/li>\n<li>Omoshiroi (\u9762\u767d\u3044\u3001\u304a\u3082\u3057\u308d\u3044) &#8211; funny<\/li>\n<li>Kyo-mibukai (\u8208\u5473\u6df1\u3044\u3001\u304d\u3087\u3046\u307f\u3076\u304b\u3044) &#8211; interesting<\/li>\n<li>Sekkyokutekina (\u7a4d\u6975\u7684\u306a\u3001\u305b\u3063\u304d\u3087\u304f\u3066\u304d\u306a) &#8211; positive<\/li>\n<li>Kouteitekina (\u80af\u5b9a\u7684\u306a\u3001\u3053\u3046\u3066\u3044\u3066\u304d\u306a) &#8211; positive<\/li>\n<li>Daijo-bu (\u5927\u4e08\u592b\u3001\u3060\u3044\u3058\u3087\u3046\u3076) &#8211; it&#8217;s ok, it will be ok<\/li>\n<li>Suki (\u597d\u304d\u3001\u3059\u304d) &#8211; to like<\/li>\n<li>Love (\u611b\u3001\u3042\u3044) &#8211; Ai<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s try to stick with positive words only or as much as we can when you feel down.
