I hear some love issues thesedays from friends. I don't know why they come in one time though, it's kind of rush hour?? Maybe because of the season, spring,,,,
One of the stoｒies is from an artist, my female friend. Her boyfriend is an artist also, and he is being popular as a young artist now. Meanwhile my friend is a talented girl who has deserved some prizes so far.
They love each other a lot, but they cannot keep going on their relationship. Becasue they're into Art so much, they are not able to deal both things.
Once they broke up and weren't in toutch for a year. But they met in the boy's graduation exhibition. Being awkward, they talked and spent some time together surrounded with their friends. They know they're still in love each other, but not knowing what to do.
According to my friend, she relys on him when she is in tension from her work. Well, it's not a cuddle, but a dispute. And it's same about him.
It's difficult and pity.
They admit their works each other, and are jealous each other. They love each other and hurt each other. Their timings don't match well when they're serious to their works, and they cannot abandon their life works.
I said to her "let it be now, because it's important time for you. you should be cncentrate on yourself. The time goes, the situation changes. we'll see."
I'm not sure it cause a good after, but I'm sure that there is nothing to do now.
The love relationship is such a deeply hard thing as much as they are serious to their live.

days in Japan
it's still a bit cold today . we say "three days cold, four days warm." in this season. actually, it was sunny and warm yesterday.
I knew it'd be not good thing to do but I took a branch of cherry blossom. it's in the entrance of my room, blooming now.
I feel spring coming when I smell the earth. maybe it's because where I grew up is countryside and there are many rice fields. The beging of the spring is the plowing period. By the time, I've been away from my home town but still my body knows it, even I've been putting new experiences upon it.
I think I'm consisted of those experiences which I've had so far. and I'll be consisted of the experiences in the future, which are with everything surroundings, such as people, place or time.
I'm quite skeptical for "an indivisual", since I think existance is relative with circumstances. It depends on the relationship with I and others, and I change by the time. This is natural "existance".
According to the book I'm reading, the time is the progressive, only. it says the past is a recollection, the future is a supposition or an intention, and there is no "point time" but "width time".
if so, our existances are like flowing water.
doesn't it sound cool? I like it.
A scientist said "a human body is a gas if we see it in a long time span. we eat and metabolize everyday, every moment. in 20 years, there is no nutrition same as before in our cells."
Mentally and physcally, people are in the melting pot!
Actually it's a little disgusting picture if I imagine it though,,,that's significant.
well, anyway it's spring soon!
and it's a party season in Japan, because a school or a companey starts new term from Spring. We'll have freshmans and a welcome party, and new relationship and circumstance!

I'm just back from trip in France.
I was in a big trouble the first days, but with many hands, I'm here in safe. I write some about my journey.
The very second day, I was robbed all my cash at the hostel. Big trouble. So I contacted with a japanese friend in Paris and begged her help and e-mailed to parents to send money. Accidentaly as the hostel roommates there were Japanese travellers who missed their plane to get back to Japan, they helped me a lot also. well, all of us were in trouble, so that they might feel sympathy. In many ways, Japanese people are really kind. It's really hard thing to lend money someone notwithstanding being in trouble themselves.
Anyway in 2 days, this problem was sloved. so I decided to have a short trip to Lyon since I was fed up with a big city such as Paris.I said good-bye to my Japanese roommates and other friends in the hostel, left to Lyon.
My aim in Lyon was the Palais ideal du facteur Cheval, which is a monument extraordinary made with 33 years by a postman. This one actually isn't in Lyon but in a small village 90km from Lyon, so going there by bus.
On the first day in Lyon, which was Friday, I encountered 2 japanese boys who seemed to be in trouble at the hostel's reception. As I lined behind of them, I helped a little. the matter was that there wasn't any bed for boys for that night. I couldn't help them a lot becasue I couldn't make them girls,,,anyway they gave up to stay that hostel and went to find an other.
After my secureing a bed, I was wandering around in Lyon city. then I came across the boys! fortunately they could find a place to stay. They were on graduation journey. As we say "sode huriaumo tasyo-no en", which means "Even a chance meetingis due to the fate of a previous life.", so we had a meal together.
One of them intended to be a shef, so he chose a restaurant and explained all of the menu, so I could have really good food there. It's always good to have (skillful) friends. I like this kind of eventually encountering.
There is one more eventually thing in Lyon. The next day I went to the village to see the monument. It was Saturday, which slipped out from my mind. Anyway I got a train in the morning 6:30 and could catch the bus going to the village. Since I don't understand French well, the bus driver said something about returning, I didn't understand really but I thought he said the next bus to the train station was 9:50a.m. and it was 8:30 then. The institution opens at 9:30, but kindly a lady opened it a bit earlier. It was awesome! It's worth to see once. wierd and crazy but cool! I took many pictures,,,enjoyed it. Then I found it was about time to catch the bus, so I left the place. But guess what, I just missed the bus! it was passing in front of me, it was just 9:50. Well, at that time, I thought there were other buses. then I checked out the timetable,,,,and found the bus just left was the last bus on Saturday, ****** European business!
I ran into the information center and asked how I could get the station. The reception girl said that the one official way was a taxi, but I couldn't afford it, 50! So I tried to find a person who went to the station.
I'm sure I was lucky, there was a lady who was supposed to go there.
She is a wife of the cafe master and that master speakes English. In France, not many people speak English,,, so it's lucky again. I explained the situation I was in and ask for help. because the cafe seemed to the point for villagers, I thought there might be someone. Then there was!
She took me to the station and I could get back to Lyon. People are kind in countryside.
I was planing to travel around in France, but I was supposed to move to my friend's house in Paris soon, so I gave it up and got back to Paris the next day.
It's it a little adventure, isn't it?
In Paris, I met French students of Japanese language on the very early day in Paris, They were eventually with my friend .
They speake Japanese well. According to one of them, he was Otaku but not now. what I felt funny at our conversation, as I said it was the first time to visit Paris and France, he said "ah, onobori-san", it means "visitor from the country"! that was cool,,,,, perfect Japanese usage!
One more funny thing, my japanese friend in Paris sayes "I don't like French people but I like French culture." she has been here much longer than me, so she knows better.
I don't know exactly how the French people, but there are so many different people in France so as in Japan. Some malicious people, some kind people. Especially in Paris, all most all people are from other countries. it's not like Japan, but this makes the French culture colerful. I hear so many languages here in Paris. Spanish, English, German, Japanese, Chinese,,, etc.
My point is, no matter which country you are in, you're you. Just behave yourself, and open your mind to people. we're just human beings.

I'll write what I do in the daily life.
things happened, what I think, feel or about myself.
I'm not good at English writing, but I'll try.
put up some photos also.
this is about a piece of my life.
