more than for 30 years
I have been to my home town the other day.
my mother , who is 87 years old this year, lives there alone.
she is very good and powerful.
when i entered into the living room , i noticed an old fan.
it was the fan that i looked at when i was a junior high school student.
wow before 40 yeas ago.
by the way recently in japan we had a problem.
the fan made by sanyo corporation , made more than 30 years ago,

the fan made a lot of troubles, for example the old couple passed away for fire , that was
cause from it. wow my god.

daimonji
show the bottom six pics . do you know what these are? have you ever seen ?
these are fire on the five mountains in Kyoto.
Kyoto , which was established in 794 by Kanmu emperor, is one of the oldest cities in japan. it has a lot of temples and beautiful gardens.
well these fire ......... for what?
it is the ceremony that we see our ancestor spirits off.
they come back to each home from the heaven in august 13 and go back 16.
it seems this ceremony has been continued from almost 794 .
in those days there were no electricity . all of around us was deep dark, only moon light.
the fire are coming out in dark.
i wonder what ancient Japanese think of then.

where will japanese go ?
my Singapore friend and me chatted the other day. about walking speed. haha
and an escalator too.
he said to me " why do people in Tokyo walk so fast ? and why do Japanese make vacant space when you get on the escalator ?”
surely people in Tokyo walk very quickly.
i guess the walking speed in Tokyo is the fastest in the world.
i wonder how people in the world do.maybe not speedy.
recently we Japanese used to make space on one side to climb the stairs when getting on
the escalator. because of busy people. haha.
i don't know when we would do such a behavior though.
when i was child, we didn't do so. we would usually get on and wait for reaching the upstairs.
where do Japanese go so fast ? despite of narrow nation........
this is an old catch copy in public.
i wonder where we go.
maybe go to the death oh my god.

sumida river fireworks festival
on july 28th the famous fireworks festival was taken place at the sumida river.
this picture was taken on the yakatabune in japanese ( yakatabune = the boat with the roof which an old japanese house has.
fireworks look like vain human life.
the prosperity is not eternal, surely goes to ruin.
cherry blossoms and fire works are loved by japanese.
japanese may discover the beauty in the vain.
