These are 10 things that I have learned from Kimi ni Todoke, a heartwarming story about a shy, not-too-good-around-people girl named Kuronuma Sawako and the process of her breaking out of her shell.
- Be honest to yourself. 
 - Speak your truth. 
 - Acknowledge and express your true feelings. 
 - Don't let the fear of getting rejected or hurt stop you from loving. 
 - Know that you deserve to be happy.
 -  Only you have the power to change your own life.
 - Be happy in whatever you are doing and give thanks for each experience. 
 - Have faith in your friends.
 - Keep on being the best you can be.
 - Enjoy each moment and smile.
