こんにちは、皆さん！^-^ The Japanese word for the day is...*drum roll*

自身、（じしん）、jishin

いみ（meaning）：Self-confidence, Confidence (in oneself) (noun, verb)

れいぶん（example sentence）：私はもっと自信になりたいです。watashi ha motto jishin ni naritai desu.

ほんやく（translation）：I want to be more confident.

Self-confidence is something that I - and many of you -- strive for more of every single day. I realized, more so recently, that taking risks and stepping out of your comfort zone may be uncomfortable, but it is well worth it in the end. ^-^ Following the Japanese theme; traveling to a foreign country and also having fun while there takes confidence. You're going to have opportunities to do new things and and be in different situations, and it can be nerve racking at first. But it's best to do it anyway and broaden your experiences!

Any and all questions about the language are welcomed in the comments section or through PM! じゃあ、また明日ね！^-^
