Kombu Eatable kombu_kelp
昆布 Eatable kombu_kelp

2016/8/23. This morning is Fine. Bleesze from west. 24°c (highest will be 26°c). West wind has pushed Yamase ( is wet sea fog) away, and it has brought back the worthy weather for life of people here. This is kombu_eatable kelp. I have gifted it about 10 days ago. It was dried with good condition at that time, but it has been wet now. I have remarked Yamase is extremery strong damp.

Sunny for the first time in three days。The westerly wind pushes Yamase into the sea and brings lightness。The photo was given as a souvenir 10 days ago.、Oden kelp。It was crispy even before Yamase、I've been so unsatisfied in the last three days。I once again felt the enormous humidity in Yamase.。

うんざりだ / I’m fed up with “Thanks, thanks,thanks”

2016/8/22。It's Yamase again today。The last day of the Olympics。The performance of the Japanese players was great.、every interview、Are you “happy” or “sorry” that you won a medal?。And without fail, "Thank you to everyone who supported me."。

I understand how you feel.、I guess that's true though、I'm already "tired"。There are times when the press demands it.。coach、director、As competition organizations calculate their external profits and losses,、This seems to be because they teach "words of gratitude."。

All the players、I don't think I did my best on my own.。I'm sure I have a feeling of gratitude every day, even unconsciously.。But on the other hand、In order to demonstrate one's own personal power、It is necessary to forget about such things。In a sense, that kind of single-mindedness、Doesn't it give you true emotion?。These days, even small children say “thank you.”。

``It's safe to say thank you,'' ``Everyone is doing something,'' and ``It's natural to be grateful to everyone.''、In the end, I think this is a dangerous mindset that embeds the individual in the whole.。While chanting “Develop your individuality”、The Japanese heart is still “one as a whole”。
