acceptance
A load of memories piled up for long term can never be rewritten even after ages. Unlike PCs, our mind don't have a button called "delete"which is capable of erasing whatever unnecessities right away. Instead of deleting, waiting till it's gone is the only thing we all human being can do.But how long it does take? No one knows, proabably it might never vanish. The high-tech world still doesn't help us at this point but just exaggerate the fact we're human being that hasn't changed rapidly like technologies do.
Waiting till it's gone sounds like a never-ending story....
After all, acceptance is only way to make things better. Accept as memories are, accept as your feeling were in the past, accept as your feeling is at present....
Acceptance isn't that easy in reality though, what else to do?
We've gotta accept...

the way I am and the way people are
"The way people are is more important than what they're doing."
That's what I've thought all the time.

social networking
Indeed, sharing thoughts and experiences sometimes makes some change in our life to the better, but on the other hand, an information overload generates confusion at the same time. My opinion is like this, "we don't have to know everything about matters as well as people" . The reason is pretty much simple, it's because there is a case that we can stay in a peace by not knowing things too detail. One of japanese proverbs also says the same thing, "what you don't know can't hurt you".
Apparently, the world we're living in has plenty of paradoxes.

sex industry in Japan～love hotels～
This is my own interest though, I'm sometimes simply surprised at a scale of sex industry in Japan, surely it must be larger compared with that in european countries.
Looking at love hotels, we can easily find them almost everywhere, even in the remote countryside. Since I used to live in a place which is pretty close to love hotels for childhood, it's somewhat familiar thing and part of the landscape. So I'd rather say if there is an area which doesn't have love hotels, it seems weird:)
Why there should be thousands of love hotels all over the country...?? I thought about the answer, it's probably because that Japanese don't have enough space to have privacy at home, especially when people still lives with their family in the same house. However, even in a case of married couples that already started to live together, they will go there to get another excitement which cannot experienced in a daily circumstance. Interestingly, as a recent trend, love hotels is attracting high-end customers by offering not only a luxury space but also a good meal....
I wonder what's the origin of Japanese love hotels....gotta figure out some books about it:)

tone of voice⇔language
As this title says, I'd like to share some interesting effects between languages and the the tone of voice.
Some of you might notice what I'm going to say here if you have ever experienced speaking another language before.
TONE OF VOICE ⇔ LANGUAGE
It's simply explaining that the tone of voice is changed depend on what language you speak. This is something that I consciously found out through conversation with foreign friends in a situation that we often switch our languages, english to Japanese, and Japanese to English. Moreover, the funny thing is that slight difference of the tone of voice highly effects the image of people. Not only English but also whatever languages make a change in our voice and image.
According to my friends, their tone of voice tend to be higher for some reason when they try to speak Japanese:) I asked the same question to all of my friends from Australia, England, Finland, Italy, America, ....etc. So probably this is true. Aaaand I do also realize that my voice changes, speaking english. Mine tends to be lower in English.
Anyway, an interesting point is that the tone of voice can even change an image of speaker. Here is a story of a friend of mine from Australia living in Japan for more than 10 years.
Obviously, he's a perfect Japanese speaker, probably good at it more than me:) Yet, he said that he wants to fix his Japanese voice since his tone of voice is pretty high when he speaks Japanese, and because of this, he sometimes feel as if he has two different personalities.
For sure, speaking different language sometimes changes people's personalities. However, this is somewhat interesting. "the tone of voice"!!
Are there anyone who agree with me?!
