雨(あめ)や風(かぜ)、雪(ゆき)や夏の(なつの)暑さ(あつさ)にも負けない(まけない)丈夫な(じょうぶな)体(からだ)

Not losing to the rain, not losing to the wind, not losing to the snow or the summer heat, having a healthy and strong body, free of desire, never getting angry, always smiling quietly. I wanted to become such a person. These are the words of prayer that the author Kenji Miyazawa left written in his personal notebook.
