Today, I left these markar-pens( photo) on the shelf in the supermarket, after pachased them.

About 40 minutes later, I remembered it after I came back to my home. Then I returned quickly, and I asked about it to a shop person.  She said it has been decrared already. I have expected such a  thing, and I could get it. This is the japanese manners.

However, you should not recognize the results of modern Education by the governments since Meiji period. “Honesty” is the Nature of Japanese .    2016/11/02

Why do you want to live long-life?

Me, my mother and aunt
Old day’s

I have watched “What is the difference between Long-life person and Short-life ones” on T.V last night. I have considered almost people has desired to get a long and healthy life. It may be common sense.

However, I don’t understand for what would you get so long life. I remembered the man,  who was well known as creative scientist of the world, he said “I hope to live still 500 years old, because it takes 300 years minimum to learn the stack of knowledge of human race, then it also takes about 200 years to progress or create new theory from there.”  I understand him very well, but I don’t need such a long life like him. And I often want to disappear silently from every scenes.  2016/10/30

おめえはデブ… / You are fatty, but

暗くなりかけた午後6時頃、近くのコンビニへ行く途上。後ろから、ヘルメットをかぶった自転車の女子中学生二人が前後になって、私の脇を通り過ぎる。

前の子:「おめえはデブだからよ、……(あとは良く聞こえない)」と後ろの子に話しかける。後ろの子はそれに応えて何か言っているが、脇をスーッと通るのはせいぜい1秒くらいの間で、しかも移動しているのだから内容までは聞き取れない。けれど私のすぐ目の前で横並びになり、そのまま何か言い合い、笑いあいながら遠ざかって行った。

昨今は「おめえはデブ」など、口が裂けても、本人以外口にしてはならない言葉である。それが言え、しかもお互いに笑いあえる友人関係がうかがえて、しばし爽やかな気分になった。ついでということにして、缶ビールを一本レジで追加したのはその気分のせいかもしれない。 2016/10/24
