It was a bright full moon tonight.

Is it only me that it looked a little larger than one we see normally?

 

ノルウエイジャンフォレスト　（たぶん）　の　タビです。

暑いとこうなります。


 

A present is meant to be a happy thing to everyone.
Both the sender and recipient should be satisfied.
What if one of them isn't?
The word "present" is well said.
Regardless of being presentable or not, it's exactly what you look like.
There's something wrong with its packaging or content?
That's probably as far as you can get right now.
You'd perhaps laugh at it 10 years from now, or 20 years from now though, the embarrassing feeling you have will never go away so easily.
Maybe that's the lesson learned to be a grownup.
Sending a present is exactly presenting just the way you are at that moment.
What a scary thing it is to send someone a present.

Negative words, such as ones criticizing others in public, will fall back onto you in future.

We know that, that's why we should be nice to each other day by day.

What I have here might be something which was obtained with some effort of somebody.

Thank you so much for providing us with great food and a place to stay.

32 years...
_{３２年．．．}
Some say I've come a long way.
_{歳くったねっていう人もいるし、}
Some say I have yet a long way to go.
_{まだまだこれからっていう人もいる。}
Let me introduce a small friend of mine who has lived the same years as me.
_{同じ年月を生きてきた小さな友人を紹介します。}
He or she was born and grew up under water.
_{性別も分からないけど、水の中で生まれ育った友だち。}
I don't know his or her name even.
_{名前だって知らない。}
He or she lives as much as possible.
_{彼なのか彼女なのかは分からないけど、精一杯生きている。}
So, do I.
_{だから自分もそうあろうと努めている。}
So, will I.
_{これからもそうあろうと思う。}

 

Some autumn leaves literally stopped me and dragged my whole attention into them.
文字どおり紅葉に導かれるまま、見入ってしまった。

Beautiful isn't good enough to describe them.
美しいという言葉で表現しきれるものではない。

My eyes were nailed down to them.
目が釘付けになってしまった。

I almost forgot to breathe.
息をするのも忘れてしまうほど。 

No matter if nobody sees you, you see you.
例え誰も見ていなくても、あなた自身が自分自身の証人です。
You've seen you and you've heard you all time.
あなたはあなた自身を見てるし、そして聞いています。

Reality is much further than you imagine.
You might just think it's too serious to believe. I bet whatever it is sounds like a story way beyond our imagination.
What did the media fail to inform us?
It's not what told us. It's what they didn't do.
What if they delivered some more information step by step to make us understand over time to time on TV or newspaper?
My feeling is that what we really have to see is covered up with violent crimes and scandals.
Are you ready to know the possible future of Japan?

Making criticism of others is like a drug.
You feel good.
You think your listeners like you.
And you start to collect more sources for your criticism.
Finally you end up losing all your friends.
Criticism clouds your judgement.

It's too pretty to throw it into my mouth.

It's not about running.
It's about talking to myself and being honest to each other.
You can't understand others just by talking with them though, getting physical sometime helps get the truth.
It's been a while.

Sweat helps a great deal to our body.
Air conditioning certainly cools us down. However, it closes skin holes. They have to open up to sweat, which actually adjusts body temperature. Our very natural physical reactions must not be disturbed by technologies.

Everyone wants to be happy.
One nagging thing is that happiness will not come if everyone acts freely.
Freedom gets in everyone's way in reality.
What do we do to keep it away from disturbing us?
Be happy for whatever good happens to others.

Maybe it's time to start over again.
Actions without a certain level of confidence end up with hurting yourself.
Confidence can absorb the impact of whatever goes wrong. Wounds made by the confidence heal and reinforce the parts around them.

Businesses want to sell things or services at as higher prices as possible.
Customers want to buy things or services at as lower prices as possible.
If the former wins, there won't be anyone who buys.
If the latter wins, there won't be anyone who sells.
Businesses are also customers and vise versa. They should get closer a little.

Can you draw a line between your belief and where you must consider compromise?
Honestly, I can't. I don't deny that.
Do I want to settle?
Not, really...

Opportunity comes to anyone on time.
You recognize it because you can handle it.
It keeps coming one after another because you can see it.
It might fail you because you can realize what you are missing.

They wait for their parents all day long.
Doubt? Anxiety? I wonder.
I'm sure that they believe the parents.
Their lives depend on them.
Bond between them is very strong.
Someday, they will be parents.

Hydrangea drew my attention.
It's been blooming beautifully these days.
Rainy days don't make me feel great though, the flowers pay off all my negative feelings.

I try to stay out of the box for a while and do whatever I feel like to do.
Sitting at a cafe is a nice start.
Just focus on what I drink and eat.
Forget what I do.

Is it the water they are using?
I suppose pasta absorbs significant amount of water, so it affects the taste of pasta.
Good water is key to cook healthy food.

Messy day is to about to come.
To try to mitigate situations like misplacing things or forgetting something, I will have to stick to protocols I set.
Namely, I put back things to places where I've decided.

Human body contains water, a lot of water.
Actually, significant amount of natural water is running through my body now.
I need no chemical stuff in my system.
As long as I can notice what I'm taking into my body, I will watch.

Nothing gets in the way between parents and their children.
That's what I strongly felt today when I was watching this family.
The mother cat was quietly watching over her child.
I felt trust in them.
