Let's say, you a had car accident when hang around your friends on the street. You had an accident because your friend happened to invite you to go to shopping, the driver to his Ipod into the slot and not pay attention to what are in front of car, and you happened to cross the street ignoring a red light. Every thing can be explained by more than two words "bad luck"


it is true to your child. when your child is arrested for shoplifting, you will wonder where you made mistake in parenting him.

His personality formed in the process of growing up, being affected by countless forces and influences, such as heredity, culture where he have belonged, and situations.

But I want to say, it is parents who have responsibility for that.

When you foster child, it is important to know proper ways to foster him.

Today, I want warn parents about one thing about which they have misunderstanding.


When they reach sensitive age when they complain of parents for their stubbornness not to buy any thing he want in order to fit in, parents teach children to be themselves and not to care about the other.

there is a term for it, which is a peer pressure. it is a power which the community you belong to has and forces you to fit in and adapt you to that culture.


when everyone around you has cellphone, you wanna get one. that's the example.


As a part of parenting, you think it is not good idea that your child is under control of the other, because you believe in the ideal that the independent person can more chances to be top class in the organization.


But, it is not true. Survey shows the child who failed in the process of adapting to peer pressure will likely to face the difficulty in socialization, because he can't identify what is on demand or what is the goods to be more welcome. he may result in the person who can't react to difficult joke made by the moody boss.


So, to summarize it, set them free. that's it. ]]> https://ameblo.jp/animalfarm/entry-10389538841.html Mon, 16 Nov 2009 07:34:08 +0900
As I started to understand system of law, one question comes to my mind suddenly.

What's the difference between jury and jury in japan.

Japan, in 2009, introduced the system of jury in which civil can be involved in the cases. It was very dramatic and controversial change that caused a lot of disputes. Since we can control or even distort the result of the case in our favor, we have a worry that it might not work well in Japan.


Anyway, the point is,we call jury in America 陪審制, we call ours 裁判員制度. So, there must be slight deference.

I googled it, and here is what I got.

Jury in America can make decision with judge. Also they have power to find defendant guilty or innocent, but they cannot decide which punishment is done or how much or long the punishment is.

As for Jury in Japan, they can make a decision about if he or she is guilty and what punishment should be done, and how much it is with the help of judge.


So, different points is the involvement of judge and assessment of the case, how much punishment is.


From now, let me talk about this more. Do you think it was good idea to introduce jury system to Japan?


I don't think so. Think of how much we know about law, and how many people are capable of make a judge entirely based on the knowledge of law.

I heard my friend said he was chosen for a juror and reluctant to go. Born and grown in a country side of Japan, he seems to not know anything about law. But he will has a power to sentence a person to death. It can be said that the life of defendants are in the hand of jury. It's too significant. He and most of jury will likely make a judge emotionally, not according to the rule of law. I think it is a rule that gives the world structure and order. so it shouldn't be blocked or distorted.

Additionally, The cases that jury participate in is limited to the serious cases, which basically includes the death of the victim. It is likely that jury will see the evidences. Broody thing might appear in the court. The sight of these things will linger in the eyes...I don't think he can carry the memory easily for the rest of his life.


But, The government says this is the system, which encourages civil to understand the law of Japan more, creates awareness among us, and feel closer to the court.

At least, we can have a hope that we will be educated about the law in the long run.

I don't know how well it works...we will see.

The benefit is that we can share fun on the web!


Japanese has a lot of interesting and attractive sites. Some of them feature odd news in the world,some provides free softwares or free video, and some gave us virtual places to interact with others who we may never meet in real world.


We enjoy these sites naturally because they are made based on the premise that readers or recipients are capable of understanding what the sites provide, namely language.


So, Here is what I want to say.

Learning English allow me to explore and appreciate websites in the world!


I'm genuinely happy when I find interesting sites written in English.


There are so many English sites to visit in the world, as the number of English speaker in the world is enormous. Although the scene of humor that some of them have is different and poor taste that Japanese can't accept culturally, they are creative enough to make me laugh! When I go to Vimeo, which is good quality and equivalent to Youtube, I thank to ability to communicate with them, I'm having fun!


If you are an English learner, openness to English site will bring more fun to you. I recommend it.

However, truly rich people tend to keep working. Why? Because they are working at something they like!

the thing is, their money comes from their passion.

It is common for people to have a sport or hobby to pursue in their spare time.Generally they don't earn money for doing it. In fact, it usually cost them money, But they can't wait to do it.

What if you could make your living as much as you love your hobby?


At this point, You may think, "Okay, Sounds great. But HOW?"


That's the reason why many people are not rich.


Although I am not rich, I can help you go about finding them by providing the clues!



1, Think about turning your passion into business.

That's difficult, I think. The reason why people think this is difficult is that they are think inside a square. It is not necessarily to be a professional, skilled and talented athlete in order to make money for doing it. Think outside a square.


For example , one guy was struggling to be the professional rugby player, but it turned out to be impossible. And he gave up...

But, he couldn't get the passion out of his mind, and decided to publish newspaper for the supporter of the local teams.

Like one of well-known american dreams, he resulted in millionaire.


His story may sound like by far from our reality. But, we have blog, which make news professional and personal. If we use it in a creative way, we can make money.

This is first clue.


Second clue is, although it may sounds like obvious, to find another passion. this is one of the thinking-outside-a-square. There are so many hobbies you haven't met or tried even once. One of them might match you.

Anyway, Having hobbies and passion about something gives you energy and vigor. You can release your stress in hobby, so, There is no BAD in having hobbies or passion.

For example,If a company selling lottery says that 50% of our sales of this lottery goes to the charity foundation, it will inspire minds of people who are concerned with with global poverty, and encourage more purchases.

In short, buy our product, because you can do something good!


This approach is a magic, which will increase your sales dramatically as well as your public image. There is so many successful precedents in the world.


But, I wonder if this approach is prevalent in Japan? It seems to me that Japanese businesses is desperately busy so as to make as much profit as possible.


Is there any company which differentiate itself form other businesses by social responsibility rather than quality and cost or any other aspects?



People are born good, I believe. Many company should adapt themselves to this society where good deeds are valued. ]]> https://ameblo.jp/animalfarm/entry-10381914558.html Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:32:35 +0900
When I was dreamed of my job, I was so optimistic. I thought I could get any job if I want. There was a time when I admired and eager to be a pilot moving from place to place internationally. However, I've seen too much to be optimistic. What I hear from adults, which should be the example fro next generation, is just complaint! I've never met the guy who is proud of doing his job. Seems like such a guy lived in TV program. Their morale are just going down...


So is the birth rate in Japan. We tend to control our birth and have no more than two children.

What created this situation? It's this society.


Before we try to reproduce as much as possible, we know that our society doesn't accommodate non-educated people easily.

50 years ago, it was easy. We used to not care about the cost of fostering children. It was a time right after WW2 was announced to be finished.
It was unusual that children go to University because the number of the job which needs help was plentiful. People went to company, and was treated well and got jobs.


But now, There are too much people for one job. In addition, the companies expect us to be educated because it is required for the job.

As a result, more and more children goes to University even against their will.


That's why we jumped out of law of the nature.


we should be eager to have more and more decedent.

But, we control ourselves.


I suppose, If we were to behave just like animals more primitively, we would be happier.


Our intelligent have killed ourselves. ]]> https://ameblo.jp/animalfarm/entry-10376609911.html Fri, 30 Oct 2009 12:46:39 +0900

The choices are to tell my opinion honestly without distorting it, or to say blurred and general opinion like it's okay and good. Option to tell a lie in favorable way was eliminated due to my value that no lie is preferred. If I tell a lie, I feel ethically guilty.


So, Today I chose first one and said things directly as I thought.


It resulted in creating bad atmosphere between me and her, although I just wanted help her. I don't know if I say things offensively to her somehow or acted badly to her.


This is not first time for me. It's happened third in my life, including this.


In every cases, I almost let someone go in opposite to my will. And I regret these things. I didn't learn any thing from the past.


Why? because I couldn't find the best answers.


I don't want make even white lie. It's still a lie.


If I say things generally, the reaction will be negative. People think that I am thinking any thing about them or I don't care them.


If I say my true opinion which may be offensive for some people, I will be regarded as cruel and thoughtless man.



I truly don't know what is best answer. I'm always considerate for those who ask me for help. I never mean to hurt them. I just suggest things so that things will work for you.


Being realistic is not good position in this life. Should I change? Should I be a person who encourage people, even though it's a lie. I don't wanna be that.



help me! What is best?

To be more specific, my ideal beach has as clear sea as the visibility is highly transparent, under the roasting sun and a few or no clouds, with a few people around me.

When I watched Shawshank's redemptions, at the ending of it, I was impressed and touched by the beauty of the beach. It was very bright, There were two colors; one is sea, one is beach, sand, contrasting each other.


In my hometown in Japan, in the province that it belongs to, there is a sea. but it's not something that you choose for seeing beauty of landscape. I mean it is a officailly beach, but I don't think so. It should be defined as beach to bathe in, not to see.

Yeah, I want the beach which is good both to swim in and see.




People has different place to go, where do you wanna go?

In Japan, there is a prevailing Idea that Brood type determines or affects your personality.


Type A is known as organized, punctual, neat, and particular about cleanness. On the other side, Type B, which is mine, is considered BAD. For example, Type B person go his own way. Don’t care the others. I am thought to be lazy just because of Type B. more than that, I feel shocked and depressed when I say I’m B and everybody look at me with sad and pitiful eyes.

I want to say. Do you think it is possible to divide our diverse personalities in the world into 4 types? I don’t want to believe it and that I belong to bad one.


Our personality which we see in usual situations formed in early in our life, and comes from three points, Heredity, Environment, Situations.

Heredity is what you get from your parents and is programmed in your DNA. So, this is something like inevitable. If both of your parent and you are impatient, you should attribute it to your parents, you better give up.



Environments are where you’ve grown up. They’re house, school, your peer, community, town, everywhere you’ve been in. For example, If you belonged to the strict soccer club where you had to maintain high level of politeness to the older, your personality is likely to be polite.



Situation is where you are at that time. People skillfully adapt themselves to different situation in an appropriate way. Different situations require different personality. You see the people who change themselves to be attractive in front of girls, although he is just shy. It’s our nature.


So, Personality is made up on the basis of these three points, and it doesn’t matter which brood type you have, Absolutely NOT.



This is what I wanted to say. Thank you for your attention.

We have still the region that is difficult to be called DEVELOPED because of its lack of materials.
Those who live in such a region are being exploited by much developed countries.


but generally The world has been developing and it creates this too complicated society.


If you want to survive this society, you will be encouraged to be educated to go to good university, where you find it easy to live university life because you can corporate with your peer for the test, and you can also cheat on the teacher. you will feel there is no need to study, and this is a place to enjoy because everyone does. you will graduate without any special knowledge that you could learn about your major.


After that, you have to send your resume to 100 companies and visit them and be screened by interviewer. It's very all the harder and tougher for this economic crisis. But it's your duty. Everything is for The job.


If you're so lucky, some companies will pick up and hire you. whether it is your ideal job that you're looking for or not, you have to take one. Otherwise you will be looked down on by the other.


However, remember that what you managed to get is the start of end of your life.

In the work place, you will be commanded by your boss. This is the very hierarchical world where you have to obey the boss If he or she says"2+2=5". You cannot deny it. you work like ant.
One thing that you feel is your income is limited even if your performance is excellent. you realize that you are working for the profit of the others, not directly for you and you are just one gear that is found in a big machine. that gear doesn't affect whole organization in your absenteeism. you are scared by the fear of risk that you can be replaced easily. there are so many alternatives. everybody wants your position. Only you can do is just work desperately.

It lasts until you retire or drop out.


In the life after you retire, What is lurking for you is the life full of worries. the government neglect or fail to pay your pensions for some reasons. so you should be careful not to spend so much money for your enjoyment. you save money although you are looking for gorgeous and relaxed and peaceful life.






After I've written this, I feel sad. I suppose this is an ordinary life that most people face.


It's sad.


So what I wanted to say is that I feel nervous when I think about future.


escape from reality is worth seeking.
