Power Spot in Tokyo #1 Imperial Palace

There are places called 'Power Spot' where people feel energy, become comfortable or so on when they visit there. It is also called 'Spiritual Spot' or 'Healing Spot'.
The famous ones in Japan are Mt. Fuji and Ise-Shrine, and in the world wide, there are Machu Picchu, Hawaiian island, etc.

Tokyo has such places as well, the land itself has a power.
So people tend to go there and hang around or even build up shrine or castle.

Roppongi (the street in front of Almond) , Ginza (Miyuki Street), Meiji Shrine, etc, etc.
It depends upon the individual person how you feel from those places.
You might feel just tiredness or nothing from some power spots.
It's different for different people, the feeling might change from person to person.


Anyway, it's often said that Imperial palace is #1 power spot in Tokyo.
Luckily anyone can go there and even get a free-rental bike on Sundays!

I walked back from the office to Tokyo Station yesterday which took about 30 minutes.
I became energetic when I arrived around Imperial Palace for sure!

『パワースポット』って聞いたことありますか?
訪れると元気になったり居心地が良かったりする場所の事です。
またの名を『スピリチュアルスポット』とか『ヒーリングスポット』とか呼んだりします。日本で有名なのは富士山とか伊勢神宮、世界的にはマユピチュとかハ ワイとかが有名とのことです。 東京にもそんな場所があって、土地自体に力があるのですが、人々がそこを訪れたりブラブラしたり、また神社やお城を建てて しまうような場所です。

六本木(アマンドの前の通り)や銀座(みゆき通り)、明治神宮などがそうです。
どう感じるかは人によって違います。パワースポットから何も感じなかったりただ疲れるだけだったりすることもあります。人によって感じ方が変わるのです。



東京で一番のパワースポットとしてよく言われるのは皇居。
幸い、誰でも行く事が出来るし、日曜日はレンタルサイクルなんてのもやっています。

昨日は会社から東京駅まで30分ほど歩いて帰りました。
皇居の近くに着いたときは、確かに元気になりなりました^^。

Folding Keyboard Ryudo

Today is Aquarius new moon. Write down 10 wishes on the paper or note. Handwriting is key. This is folding keyboard, the maker is Ryudo. I was interested, but hadn't had long years. Because I have laptop. But we don't bring computers daily, do we? So I started to think, if I had that, I might write more often... Before buying it, I investigated which keyboard was the best as there were so many kinds. First of all, It has to be light, otherwise, it will stay at home. And thought of the place where I mostly would use... it would be on a train, not a cafe as I commute long hours every day. So it has to be small and quiet.  I don't want to bother others. If I use a keyboard on my bag when I seat, my iPhone needs to place to stand, Ryudo is compact, ideal typing and has a stand. It's not very strong but enough to hold my iPhone 7 plus. One thing I cared was that Ryudo was battery powered not chargeable. So I looked over all ot...

Oh Japanese..

I've been reading Hard boiled Wonderland and the End of the World by Haruki Murakami lately. His expressions are soooo good that I can't help making a note while I'm reading. His descriptions are amazing. I read the book on the commuting train and if there's any line that I am impressed, I take out my mobile and text it to my PC e-mail. Thus, I'm busy on the train, especially my commuting hour has been shorted since I moved. I miss long time train trip a bit. My neighbourhood photos. -Japanese- 今村上春樹の『世界の終わりとハードボイルドワンダーランド』を読んでいます。 彼の表現力は素晴らしくてついついメモをとってしまいます。 彼の本は評価が好きな人は大好き、良さが分からない、と分かれますが 私は彼の表現に感動する事が多いです。 通勤電車の中で読んでいて、素敵だ、と思うラインがあると 携帯を取り出し自分のパソコンにメールをしてしまいます。 なので電車でとっても忙しい・・。 引っ越して通勤時間が短くなってしまったので 以前のような長い通勤時間も懐かしい気がします。

Asian thoughts

At lunch time, I went out with my company friends, one is French who married an European woman and the other guy who’s from Singapore and is still single. Three of us are about the same age, those two guys are the same year born. The French guy asked the Singaporean if he was going to get marry and he wanted to have own kids. The Asian guy answered “Not in this life”. It’s not surprising to me, I know many guys who have the   same idea, but I liked the way of he talks, “Not in this life” it was said as if there was another life time from the same person, which is called reincarnation, very Buddhism, and very Asian. It was the coolest answer to this kind of question, don't you think? 1974 produced wine at some weekend home party. Japanese お昼に会社の同僚、一人はフランス人でもう一人はシンガポール人と3人でランチに行ったときの事。 フランス人はヨーロッパ人の奥さんが居て、シンガポール人はまだ独身です。 3人とも同じぐらいの年で、彼たちは同じ年です。 フランス人がシンガポール人に「結婚しないの?自分の子供はほしくないの?」 と聞いたら彼は「現世ではない。」と返事。 同じような意見を持っている男の人はたくさん居るので別に驚いたりしないけど、 返事の仕方が洒落てる。「現世ではない。」と言う事は来世を信じている...
