and here's the guy.

really. he's a good guy. fate just don't seem good for him. surely God loves him in i-don't-know-which-way.
haks.

there's even an episode entitled

"good things will not happen all in a row, but bad things will." (Gintama #28)


shikashi...

Hasegawa san once said,,

"we'll only make our money last if we've worked hard to earn it, in the first place"

and

"when you're feeling down, how do you make yourself feel better? you can classify how humans make themselves feel better into two different categories: the first looks at someone who's worse off than they are to reassure themselves that they're all right. the other looks towards something much bigger than they are to realize their problems are insignificant. i belong to the second type."

see.. i told ya. he's a good guy.
