English Translation

Listen closely.
I'll be heading off to a faraway place.
I'll make sure to bring you a souvenir.
Until then, I want you to promise me, Emily.

1. Before going to bed, brush your teeth, and say goodnight to your daddy.

2. When doing nice things for your friends, don't expect anything in return.

3. Make sure to dress neatly. Invest your money on clothes.

4. At times, feign ignorance.  Always stay calm and walk forward.

5. Don't be afraid of making connections with other people. We're all meant to share our embarrassments with each other at times.

6. When you want to live, live. When you want to die, die.
Your worth is something that you decide.
Your choices are limitless. The only one you can trust in is yourself.
Nonetheless, you must become a person who will take responsibility for all of the choices you make.

7. Academic accolades mean nothing. Work in a place that you love.

8. Learn how to love purely and correctly. You get to decide what correct is.

9. Instead of trying to have everything, at times, learn how to let go.

10. If you have hurtful words to say to someone, say it to their face.

11. It isn't right to show off your tears. Take time to reflect on your weaknesses.

12. Watch a lot of movies, read a lot of books.
Because the days don't last forever.
Develop your values and common sense.
And with your entire being think about who you are.

13. When you become an adult, don't worry about me. 
Your values will support you.
There are many things that cannot be defended by theories.
But the things you believe in,
The things you love,
These two things will become greater truths than anything else.

14. Always wear a smile on your face.
Your smile will bring you strength.
But during times of sadness, and times of struggle,
Cry in front of the people who mean the most to you.

15. You don't need to be afraid
You don't need to feel lonely.
Grab hold of the life that was meant for only you.
It's okay if your life is packed with problems. The only thing you can trust in is yourself.
Nonetheless, become the kind of person who can reflect on all those mistakes.

Emily.
Emily. I miss you. I miss you.
I love you. I love you.
I love you.
