United

An article from Asahi news paper.

"Our money collected from the poor residents of the town, so for Japanese people, they might not be big amount. But somehow we want to help people who saved us " Mayor Rico Rentuza started the foundation. Massive landslide happened in 2006 in central Philippines Saint Bernard. Japanese government assisted reconstruction.

It was touching. So I told this to my friend.
He said that there was also fund-raising in slum area in Bangkok, too.

It makes me thankful.

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.
