Wise words

The student government of Nakayama Jr. High decided to put inspirational aphorisms above all the school urinals (not sure about girls' bathrooms). Most are broken-record variations of "believe in self" or "reach for the stars" or something equally cheesy, but the one below has inspired me deeply during my pre-lunch visit to the urinal today:

自分が立っている場所を深く掘れ、
そこからきっと泉が出ってくる。

"If you dig deeply at into the spot you're stand on,
from there a fountain will surely emerge."

Tru dat.

I give you this advice:

Have one's own typical style.

Emerging fountain + pasted on top of urinal = funny.

Yeah, I got that. That doesn't make my advice any less relevant.
