「日本の歴史」もそろそろラストページ

「飛ぶ男」(制作中)

8/16、rain。Temperature 18° Too cold to wear just a T-shirt。Intermittently since yesterday、It continues to fall making a loud noise from time to time.。Clean the grave too、I closed the door to my family's Buddhist altar.。Obon is over。All that's left to do is draw。

On TV special on the end of the war、watched some shows。NHK's "Nomonhan Incident"、“Eki no Ko” spotlights war orphans。I read an article that dealt with war trauma.。

What is constantly repeated is ``irresponsibility,'' ``dishonesty,'' and ``beyond reality.''、"Prioritizing personal relationships between executives" or "pretending to prioritize the organization"、"Vile profiteering"。Ambiguity in “decision-making” in “the country of Japan”、That's sloppy。Has anything changed now?

The reason in one word is、It's the lack of education.。Many people are self-congratulatory and think, "Isn't Japan's educational standard high?"。It's true that the literacy rate is high (though I'm just comparing it to places with much lower rates).。But、think logically、can explain、The ability to act、surprisingly low。Even in university professor classes, there are many people whose logic is messed up.。The university teacher、It is not enough to be just an expert.、The teacher himself doesn't understand.。Because people like that teach me.、minister、So are members of Congress.、We will become a people who choose such people.。smart guys、There is a theory that the people have been made into "foolish people".、If you think about it logically、It should be easy to understand that this is a stupid theory.。

If the “next war” happens、``Japan after that'' will be peaceful.。The country called Japan、Because it will only exist as “the past”。It is appropriate for stupid countries to disappear.。

なんだか疲れた

It was a warm day today (people from areas where it's extremely hot may think it's ironic to call it "warm").。25It may have become °。I sweat when I move、If you let a little breeze in the room、Makes me want to wear one。

canvas and、I was looking for two 10m rolls of Western paper.、とりあえずキャンバスが昨日見つかったので急いで120号2枚張った今日は午前中お盆用の買い物などで時間使った疲れたので午後からゆっくり青の下塗りを開始夕方からはパソコンでエスキースを更に詰めようと思っていたが少し蒸し暑いのとずっと続く頭痛とで何だか疲れて夕食まで眠ってしまった

A map that matches my memory

It's Obon。It's probably similar in any rural area.、These past few days have not only been filled with souls from the afterlife.、Bringing together people who usually live far away、It will be like a “joint memorial service”。It's also class reunion season。

Visiting relatives' homes during the Obon period、It is customary to place incense sticks on the Buddhist altar.。Because sometimes we go wrong、There is usually someone at home。My role is to stay at home。Because I don't remember which relatives' houses I should visit.、suitable for the role。The trouble is、I know the face of the person who comes to burn incense.、exact personal name and、What kind of relationship do you have with my family?、That's something I don't really understand。Most of their faces are of the late elderly.、I'll have a young person "carry" me along the route by car.、I don't have time to talk。

The purpose is also to get my mother to talk.、That's why I do some studying for Obon.。ask about in-law relationships、ask about your occupation、Draw a map of the houses of the time。Not only can you understand the social situation at the time, but、I wonder how stupid I was (and still am)、I can understand it well by the way。

8/10 7:00 It's a little sunny this morning。22It looks like it will be warm until about °。
