00:00In a conservative city, there emerges a girl who wins a medal in a state-level athletics competition.

00:06We will celebrate that.

00:08Even if she does not win a medal, she just manages to participate.

00:12We'll celebrate even that.

00:13That is something that deserves our respect.

00:16You do not celebrate your meanness.

00:18You do not celebrate your fall.

00:21You do not celebrate being an animal.

00:23You celebrate when you rise, don't you?

00:26That's the very definition.

00:27You celebrate your rise.

00:28You celebrate your ascension.

00:30You celebrate when you overcome a hard challenge and a worthy challenge.

00:35That's what you celebrate.

00:36Those things must be celebrated.
