Sakura

A little belated posting.
Picture of Sakura from this April.

This year is strange, I mean, last year was strange because of earth quick, though.
Many things are moving rapidly and strongly these days.
I broke my cups and glass last a couple week,
they were never broken before(of cause that's why they were existing..).

I was transferred to a new position at the company in March, which requires me to use English more and study new things,
two of my friends told me that they lost jobs in this month,
my mother has moved into Osaka and started her new life,
one of my closest friend lost one hundred million yen,
other friend found a new love after long blanks and thank to me for lots of spiritual teaching. I get this kind of comments more often lately, though I kind of keep distance from people...
And the things not directly related to myself..there was solar eclipse in the last month, Japanese cult group last fugitive criminal was just arrested yesterday after 17 year of running away life,
also Nepalese crime suspect who had been in a prison for 17 years was just released for the innocence...

Something is spreading..

Keep your mind be positive and gentle to others as well as yourself.

Hiking @ Mt. Fuji

Pictures of Mt. Fuji where one of spiritual places in Japan. You can drive to halfway up the mountain. It's about two hours hiking course from there. Many people like to try climbing up Mt. Fuji. It's a popular way that people spend a night at a co ttage and start around 2am to see sun rise at the top, however I have never tried it. R einforcement work is under way as mountain slope is sliding down. I didn't make any effort, instead I just felt autumn there. It was a clear day after rainy days that took off orange osmanthus petals. Fujisan with rainbow Rain cleanses us and brings next season.

Blackout Threatened

It's very cold day. The consumption of electricity has been increasing due to heating. There's rolling blackouts due to electricity shortages caused from Fukushima nuclear power plant accident. TEPCO, Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc., divided Kanto region into five groups and have been carrying out stop electric power for a few hours in order. Plan was not informed in advance, which gave people confusion. During blackout, traffic light is out of service, there was a fatal traffic accident due to that. My friend took a photo of drinking scene under candlelight At the office, there was an emergency company broadcast at 4:30 pm today. They said 'There might be unpredictable huge blackouts tonight due to lack of supply of electricity according to METI. There will be chance of confusion of transportation therefore go home immediately'. Trains in Tokyo running every few minutes so accurately, and if there's any unusual things such as blackout, it will be a serious con...

Lost in Translation

There are frequent questions for foreigners who visit in Japan such as 'Can you use chopsticks?' or 'Do you eat Natto ?'. And relatively one of the latest might be 'Have you ever watched Lost in Translation?'. And interesting thing is that people who are familiar with Japan well or live in this country for a long time didn't really like that movie. (Including me) I was asked by my friend why, I replied that Sofia Coppola emphasized strange things of Japanese a little bit too much. The Japanese hooker didn't have to be that old woman with such degrading English. The director must have intended it to compare to the heroine who was young and a white beautiful girl. By the way, I and my other friend went to the bar at Park Hyatto in Shinjyku to experience Lost In Translation in last January. The hotel was splendid. All these three picture were being taken by her camera.
