What Brings You Happiness?
I talked to my mother for an hour before I went to bed.
She told me some interesting things.
The value of happiness has quite changed from 30, 50 or 70 years ago.
Old people were said that they became finally adults when they married and had their own children.
Nowadays, it’s whole different.
Marriage is not always the happiest thing, and also there are couples who can’t have their children, or who choose not to have children.
Forcing grown-up children to marry someone has no meaning.
Do getting marry, and having their children make their parents happy?
If so, it’s only their parents’ egoistic.
If parents truly hope their children’s happinesses, they should respect what their children choose.
I listened to her carefully and she said,
“These are all you said when you’re young. I told them to one of my friends today, and she got surprised at these thoughts.”
I was so surprised that my mother remembered what I said and accepted it.
Also, I totally forgot that I told her such things!
My thoughts have not changed at all even though I got married and have my own child.
What brings you happiness in your life?
【何があなたに幸せをもたらしますか】
私は寝る前に母と一時間、話をしました。
母は私にいくつかおもしろいことを話しました。
幸せの価値は30年、50年、70年前とは全く変わっている。
昔の人は、結婚して子供を産んでやっと一人前になったと言いました。
現在、それは全く異なります。
結婚は必ずしも一番幸せなこととは限らないし、自分たちの子どもをもてない、また、もたない選択をする夫婦もいる。
成人した子どもを誰かと無理やり結婚させるなんて全く無意味だ。
結婚して、子どもをもつことが親を幸せにするのでしょうか。
もしそうなら、それはただの親のエゴです。
もし親が本当に子どもの幸せを願うなら、子どもの選択を尊重すべきです。
私は母の話をじっくりと聴いていました。
母はこう言いました。
「これは全てあなたが若い頃に言ったことよ。私は今日、友達にこのことを話したの。彼女はその考えに驚いていたわ。」
私は、母が私の言ったことを覚えていて、それを受け入れていたことにとても驚きました。
そんなことを言ったなんて完全に忘れていたけど！
私は結婚し、子どもをもちましたが、その考えは全く変わっていません。
人生で、何があなたに幸せをもたらしますか？
Nowadays, it’s whole lot different.

You're welcome. I mean, your English is far better than my Japanese anyway.
Feb. 5, 2020
Ah no, Almondliqueur, I don’t think so.
I don’t study English currently, what I’m writing is what I learned when I was in my high school, and I write journals not to forget them.
My vocabulary is very poor, and my speaking skill really sucks. :(
They say Japanese is one of the most difficult languages to master.
I’m glad you study it. :)
Let me know if you ever need help!

The value of happiness has quite changed fromchanged quite a bit in the last 30, 50 or 70 years ago.
What I wrote is a little more formal, but I think it sounds good here.

Nowadays, it’s whole different story.
Marriage is not always the happiest thing, and also tthing that makes people the happiest. There are also couples who can’t have their children, or who choose to not to have children.
Forcing grown-up children to marry someone has no meaning.
If parents truly hopewant their children’s happinesses to be happy, they should respect whatthe choices their children choosmake.
When talking about about big choices in life, you usually say "life choices," or "to make life choices."

I have a number of goals I like to focus on. Studying Russian and Vietnamese make me happy. Writing makes me happy, and exercise, too. I just got married and I'm beginning to find success in my relationship makes me happy, too.
Thanks for a great read!
