There's nothing that we can change about other people. Everyone is different from each other. We don't know how or what they think or feel. Sometimes we don't understand even ourselves.
We have no choice but to accept the way it is, who he or she is. We maybe can try to change their way of thinking if we want to. At least we can influence each other.
For example, you think that someone is too negative and you want the person to be more positive for himself. And you try to persuade him to be so. But he may say he doesn't want to. Still I think you can affect him more or less. But it's better for us not to think we can change other people. The older I get, the more I feel that way.
Maybe I'm a pessimist, but I think it's arrogant to try to change other people or even to want other people to change themselves. Instead of it, I'd rather try to express what I think and why I think so. The reason I think so is like expressing my affection for him or maybe just my desire. So I always hope that my feelings are understood by him and that he's still be with me after that.

I like being surrounded by something tall, covered or pressed with somthing soft but much bigger than me. That's why I like a library or a library-like bookstore. I also like how books smell whether they're new or old.
I like big cloth like blanket or Japanese futon. I sometimes ask someone to cover me with a blanket and add pressure with lots of cushions.
I think this liking of mine comes from a demand that I want the top of my head to be touched. I have no memory that someone touched my head when I was small. I think Japanese people don't hug children or pat children on the head as much as Western people. So I don't think I was jealous of the children around me. I don't know why but I still want my head to be touched. It's funny.
