we don't rise to the level of our expectations

Yes, it's perfectly okay. Everyone has their own interests that they might not want to share with others right away.

Maybe we just haven't told them yet.

We can keep it that way if we want. It's our own little secret and we can enjoy the light novel privately.

We can keep it that way if we want to. Just enjoy the light novel privately.

First, we need to figure out why they don't know. Is it because we haven't promoted it enough? If so, we can organize a small event in the class, like a light novel reading session. We can bring in some popular light novels, briefly introduce what they are about, and then let classmates have a taste of them. This way, they can gradually understand and get interested in light novels.

In movies, movies, novels, or plots, two people did not know or like each other at first for various reasons, but later, due to various coincidences or plot developments, they began to know each other, get along, and gradually developed a happy and romantic love story. This kind of setting often brought laughter and sweetness to the audience, allowing them to enjoy the joy and touch of watching. Some examples included Ling Long and Yan Qing in Exquisite Wolf's Heart, and Bai Na and Fang Yaodong in Please Don't Believe Her. In these stories, the happy and angry people finally came together through playing with each other and fighting with each other, bringing joy and warmth to the audience.

We can start by simply explaining what a light novel is. It's a type of Japanese novel that often has anime - like illustrations and is usually aimed at a younger audience. Then, we can recommend some popular ones like 'Sword Art Online' or 'Re:Zero'.

First, we could bring in some light novels to class. Show them the covers, which are usually very eye - catching. Then, read out a short and exciting passage from one of the novels. Mention the different genres of light novels, such as fantasy, romance, and science - fiction. This will give them an idea of the variety available.

Look deeper. Even the most ordinary days can have hidden gems. Maybe it was a simple conversation with a stranger that made you think differently. Or a walk in the park where you noticed something beautiful. These small things can be made interesting with the right description. For example, instead of just saying 'I talked to a stranger', you could say 'I bumped into a stranger with the most curious eyes, and our brief exchange was like a spark that lit up my day.'

One way is to actively seek out success stories. Read about successful people in different fields. When you come across a story, don't delay in thinking about how it can inspire you. And don't deny the positive aspects just because you might be envious. For instance, in the fitness world, there are many success stories of people transforming their bodies. Use these stories as motivation rather than denying their possibility.
