Sample text:

  "Grandpa, I think I understand what you're trying to tell me. Just like a pearl is made inside of an oyster because the clam feels upset, something good can even come from the boys acting mean to me. It made me uncomfortable and even a little angry, but maybe going through this will somehow make me into a better person", Hinata responded.  "Yes, that's right, Aito! It's the difficult things we go through in life that teach us the greatest lessons we will ever learn. As we're going through them, they seem irritating and uncomfortable, but afterwards these trials can produce pearls of great wisdom."
