observation

Observing people is something that I like for recent days. In a train, bar, cafe...it's interesting to see what people are up to do.

The thing is that I'm currently living in Tokyo where over 8 million people are. My home town is Nagoya which locates in the middle of Honshu, a bit far from here. Compared with the place where I used to live, Tokyo is much bigger and everywhere seems to be just chaos, but if you are from contryside, it feels even more. However, looking at positive side, there are so many opportunities to meet up various people every here and there depends on your action. So as a whole, I love this city, Tokyo.

In such a packed city, observing people is pretty interesting.
I still remember the impressive word that one of Finnish friends said to me in front of scramble crossing near Shibuya station...

"Where those people are heading???"

This was so hilarious:) If you look at people walking on scramble crossing from the building, I would say it's very reasonable comment. And what's more, he's from Finland in which population is only 5 million so it's more understandable to say that.

I love change of scenery as time goes by. Even if Tokyo scenery seems just chaos at some point, when you halt, you can see "fragile beauty" in it.

Look at things carefully

Focusing on one thing like a camera, you probably cannot help missing something behind. That's how it is. There is some technique in order to control so-called "human-lens".

As for myself, it's opposite. I'm kind a person who can easily miss overall picture of things. So I often do my best to step backward so that it's possible to get a whole picture; neverthelss, it's not that easy and tell you what will happen next: it become difficult to be able to keep an eye on tiny things when I try to be backward. How come we cannot focus on everything? I'd have been thinking like that for a long time, but then realized.

"There is no perfect picture".

Like a photo, a picture of things is diversity.
Just take it as it is and learn from that, therefore next time we'll look at things, pictures can be much better and beautiful.
