There are some private school that were found by Christian missionaries. I understand the trinity is the main teaching regardless of whether we are Catholic, Protestant, or Orthodox, so whatever the denominations those Christian missionaries were based on, students who were taught in those schools might take it for granted there's a divinity in Jesus. Since no major Christian denominations do preaching work, there's no chance for the general public to know the teaching of trinity unless they learned it in those schools. So the general public who encountered Jehovah's Witnesses in their house to house preaching work are highly likely to believe they are the 'true' Christian as they insisted.

They believe in 'earthly resurrection', their belief is we can resurrect after we died and are discompsed fully on the earth. There are many descriptions of resurrection immediately after their death in Bible. But I don't believe we resurrect after we are cremated or discomposed.
Their refusal to transfusion is also their unique belief. There are some descriptons which prevent us from eating blood in Bible, but there's no direct prohibition in regard to transfusion. They extend the teaching to transfusion.
Despite such differences, I feel symphathy with them very much. They are very nice. I like their nature very much. I think they have their own raison d'etat to stay in the face of 'everything' materialistic world.

New World Translation
New World Translation
2007.04.29 4:30
I obtained a tiny Bible called 'New World Translation' from a friend of mine who belongs to Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, who is an assistant professor in some college. I tried browsing it a little but I didn't realise it is particular as some slashdotter pointed out in my previous JE. This Bible is translated from the viewpoint of unity of God as opposed to trinity, but for me this is not so important. They use 'God's active force' instead of using 'The Spirit of God' and 'obeisance' instead of 'worship' in regard to the feeling toward Jesus. These differences don't make many differences unlike many Western people might feel.
They use 'torture stake' instead of 'cross'. This is also not very important.
This translation was thought to be done by only one person -Frederick Franz, and probably with little help by other 4 people in the committee, which is what I think it anazing. I read Bible in New International Version. This translation was done by 115 scholars from various dominations including many Protestant beliefs in America, but New World Translation was done exclusively only for Jehovah's Witnesses. This translation is chewy, and tasty, I like its uniqueness.

Transparent Bins -Friday July 28, @02:22PM 2006
Transparent Bins
[ #140719 ] Friday July 28, @02:22PM
I often notice that some bins are not transparent so we are unable to tell how large the rest of portion that leaves. Transparency to bins and societies. Bins are not the same as women's costume.
Childish Society
[ #140716 ] Friday July 28, @02:09PM
I reminded that the use of a child's voice in advertisement song increase the effects more. Not only one but other premises started chanting their corporate or advertisement song in a child's voice. So now wherever I enter the shop, I am forced to hear a child's voice in their songs.
Ah, this society is so childish, This is a childish society indeed.
MySpace Age
[ #140715 ] Friday July 28, @01:40PM
I noticed some of the User of MySpace com deliberately made a false statement as to their age. We could see sometimes a woman whose age is 99 years old but the real one is much younger. In the case of 99 years old, we usually notice the User has been making a mockery of us and we'd better not take their statement too seriously. But there are some cases we are unable to tell whether their statement is right or false if both two different ages are likely.
For example some User express their age as 49 at first and later in their profile in detail their age was 16. Either two cases are likely so we were just unable to decide which is correct.
In their first profile their ages are automatically renewed according to their birthdays and month, year. We don't have to change our age and age changes when their birthdays arrive. So what would happen after 50 years, after 100 years from now? Probably my age will be 95 years old, 145 years old automatically. Age counting in MySpace com doesn't make allowances for our real age, but keep on indicating how many years will have passed since our birthdays.
That is called 'MySpace age'. We were able to acquire eternal life on MySpace. Our age will last forever!

Where's MySpace?
[ #140353 ] Monday July 24, @09:12AM
It was already four days ago when I wrote a journal here, the title of my journal was 'rain, rain, rain'. I was busy browsing MySpace.com for these four days to look for a beautiful woman. I am unable to see my love from Monday to Friday so I need to ease my lonliness by visiting other's sites on line. Today as had been these four days I tried to visit MySpace.com but I was unable to do owing to mechanocal problem in the site. The number of registered users right now in MySpace is nearly a hundred million. It was not in the least likely for MySpace to be overwhelmed by such a large number of new entries. It's still raining. It have been raining for over five or six days. MyIsland is about to be overwhelmed by tens of thousands of rainfall. But MySpace is not MyIsland. May MySpace last forever!

Cause - Revenge Is Prior To Loyalty
[ #139590 ] Wednesday July 12, @01:34PM
1582 at Honnoji, Kyoto, Akechi's treachery against Nobunaga was belived to be taken place. Nobunaga was a master and Akechi was a subordinate, so this is a treachery definitely.
But on the reason why Akechi fought against his master was very unknown to us. Just unknown.
Akechi's mother was given as a hostage in their opponent. Usually Nobunaga helps his subordinate's mother, but he didn't. As a result Akechi's mother was killed by their opponent. Revenge for parents is more than loyalty to masters. So Akechi killed Nobunaga for the more great cause.
Indeed Akechi was belived to be killed. But no one saw his decapitated head. He was thought to be spared and become a monk in Hiei Mountain in Kyoto. He was thought to be alive for many years but this fact was stricktly kept secret. In public his death took place before his natural death.
He was spared for the great cause.
Death

What is sleep? It is like death. Sleep is useless. -Da Vinci
For me there's no similarity between sleep and death, though, there is a connection between death and separation. She lives in my memory only from her age 15 to 23. After last time we met in Trecca, she left my mind for good. Definitely she is alive somewhere with someone. But for me her death took place when we were 25 or 23. She has been dead since then. So even if she might be alive or dead, it has nothing to do with my life. Her death took place before her natural death.
I lived with my ex-ex-girlfriend from 1999 to 2001 for about two years. For those two years she was alive in my life everyday. But after we separated, she hasn't been a part of my life, she's dead before her natural death.
I'm a writer. I wrote tens of thousands of manuscripts back from age 10. Manuscripts from age 10 to 11 remains in my notebook, but manuscripts from 14 to 16 were gone forever, so even though my writing carrer was lasting from 10 to 16, I must say I was dead from 14 to 16, since no writings left, no life. Literary speaking I only lived from 10 to 11 and 16 to 19.
From age 20 to 38, I hadn't left anything written in any language, so again I had been dead for 18 years. Abruptly I started writing from 38 to now, so I am alive for these 8 years. Many ordinary people stop working around 60 and retired. After their retirement, some people only exist for existing purposes. some time after their retirement, they will die. But their death took place before their natural death. Oftentimes their natural death doesn't mean anything for us. Many people are dead before their natural death.

Today I had completely forgotten today was a paid holiday. I noticed when I enter the company since one of my coworker told me I was off today.
Outside it was a very windy, typhoon was crossing Korean peninsula, since our city is nearest in Japan to the peninsula.
We started having date with in my room on the 1st of July, we enjoyed there three times. On the 8th of July we had a date second time in my room. We enjoyed four times. We had date six times since we met, apparently after we started seeing in my room, I stopped counting how many times we had date with.
This journal entry is a bit confusing for readers, but for me I understand well. Just for the record of our dates.

[ #139342 ] Sunday July 09, @02:47PM
I got off at the station called Brandenburg Gate so that I can see the Gate. I was a tourist back in my early thirties. At the station, I started looking for where the Gate is by taking a look at the map in the station. After a thorough search I was unable to find the Gate in the map. I was at a loss. I was supposed to get off the station whose name is the very place where I wanted to visit, but I was unable to find the very name in the very place I visited.
After a while, I noticed there's a white place where no description was found in and around there since it's white. It doesn't take too much time that I found the white place was made as a result people pointed out there so many times so finally the point was worn out. There was where I wanted to visited.

I didn't rub my inflammation parts while my girlfriend was in my room. Today I found my dermatitis more alleviated than before her visiting my room. If she were always here, I would not have to worry about my dermatitis any more.
Lachrymal Power
[ #139333 ] Sunday July 09, @12:20PM
On the 2nd of July before her leaving my city I said to her, 'I am unable to see you until 29th of July. I have an interview.' I knew it's not going to be any excuse I am unable to see her. We can come and go between two cities by using Shinkansen in just 18 minutes. The only problem is its cost 20.5 bucks for one ride. It's not very expensive though we always have to spend about 40 bucks automatically, it's costly.
Before her leaving my city, she showed a drop of lachryma deep inside her eyes. I had no reason I missed fluctuation of her mind. Of couse I wanted to see her, but only because of the cost I spend I thought it hard to keep on seeing even once in a week. Now I gave up my vanity and we started seeing in my room. We made a meal and ate. It cost very less.
Her lachryma was as tiny and pretty as pearl in the Aegean Sea. It was indeed a crystalisation of her emotion. Her lachryma made me confirm that her sincerity toward me is genuine. Lachryma is great.
Irreplaceable
[ #139331 ] Sunday July 09, @11:49AM
Now I gave up having vanity and haughty in my mind. I had always though I should spend roughly 200 bucks in one date. I realised I will be unable to keep my vanity and I proposed to have date basically in my room. And she agreed. Thanks to that she comes to pay a visit my room once in a weekend. We live far away so we cannot see one another every day. Before leaving my city, she uttered to me that she was about to give up having a new boyfriend because of her age -46. I said 'It's also for me. Love affairs can make when two of us think one another irreplaceable.'
Pylon
[ #139330 ] Sunday July 09, @11:28AM
Some people think pylon beside the main road is an obstacle. Indeed here in Japan almost all electricity was still carried through pylon. Our roads are narrow. The existence of pylon makes the road narrower. So some people think them dangerous and they should be taken away and be dug into the Earth.
I have a different idea. They are very useful when we walk beside the road. They prevent us from collision by car. I was beside the pylons while a car was away.
Underground Entrance
[ #139329 ] Sunday July 09, @11:17AM
On the rainy day someone was riding a bycycle. He slipped before me where the big vinyl sticker was on the road. I rushed into him saying 'Are you O.K.?' He said, 'I have no idea why I slipped.'
I thought he slipped because the vinyl sheet was so slippy in rain. But the fact was more than that.
I was amazed to find the words on the sticker. It read 'Underground Entrance.' This was probably caused by the power of letters on it.

I cannot live with her -46 years of age, a mother of 17 daughter. She has two more kids, but others are over 20. She needs at least one more year to let her daughter go of her.
Therefore I cannot live with her for a year at least till her youngest daughter live without her help.
Right Is Prior To Privilege

In my fictitious world I wanted to say in front of smokers that it is your privilege to smoke here, but it's not your right.

[ #138983 ] Monday July 03, @01:42PM
She is 46, and it will take 2 or 3 years to face menaupose. Physiologically speaking it is still possible for her to have babies. She said around after two weeks are in danger. 'Danger of what?' 'Danger of pregnacy' To tell the truth we'd like to enjoy sex, but we don't want to have burden of childraising, let alone childbearing. So naturally we have to think about the way of contraception. Taking a pill is not common in our country unlike other advanced countries. I said I don't ejaculate in to her body. We don't want kids. Kids have nothing to do with our love. sometimes it strengthen our love, but other way around, it lessens our love.
The meaning of marrige has been changing a great deal since my younger days. In my twenties it was nothing but a crystalisation of love in spiritual meaning. In my mid thirties it has economical meaning more than anything. Now in my mid forties I am about to conclude that marriage is for two opposite sexes to have sex act exclusively. Hegel once wrote it so. For those who have got no kids it is very true.
[ #139340 ] Sunday July 09, @02:03PM
She said she might be a bad girl. I said I don't think so. She said what woman do you think a bad girl? I said, ' Those who always flirt others while they are still in love with someone. And, those who tell a lie. If you don't like to say something, just keep silent. If you don't say what you don't like to say, it's O.K.'
Pothos, Oxinia, Calanchoe, Cyclamen

Those four plants are always in my room. I never forget to water those plants. In which cyclamen was rather mean. They are alive, but they don't show up flowers for these two years.
She asked me whether I have been watering, I said, 'Yes. I don't forget it.'
But probably I was supposed to say, 'No. I tend to forget. Please come here more often so that you can water those plants.' I am still a student in love.

According to some sources mainly in Wikipedia, Romans, First and Second Corinthians, Galatians, Philipians, First Thessalonians, Philemons were actually written by Paul, the authenticity of other letters believed to be written by Paul is uncertain.
Paul was an Apostle, not a political leader like Moses, or King like David, Solomon, or prophet like Jeremiah, so my question is why there have to be someone who had to write under the false identification of Paul, was there any merit? Or is the entire argument based on just an ambiguous speculation?

Two Options
I found your comment today! while I was browsing my past journal. I had two options, which are either I left unanswered or reply. I chose to reply.
Two Options[ #138568 ] Tuesday June 27, @02:24PMSo here is the picture of Takoyaki. This food is very common anywhere in Japan, so like famous Ramen shops, delicious Takoyaki shop tends to attract many customers. So naturally I wanted her to have the one in one of the delicious Takoyaki shops in Kokura. Used to be lots of customers but we were unable to find them other than us. It was just over 21 o'clock. Many people were on the street. The taste turned out not as good as it used to be. The price was still the same. I don't visit there any more. On the other hands, the Ramen shop we visited over midnight was a full of customers in spite of the late time we arrived. And the taste was just the same as Kokura Ramen's, very exact and delicious one. We were satisfied with it. I intend to visit again whenever I am hungry. That Takoyaki shop -they used to use the most expensive oil and flour and very fresh Octopus and cabbage, they didn't use the rest of fried materials to fill the stuff of the ball. Everything changed from high to ordinary, the price was still 4.5 dollars though. There are two options for all.

He went with two young comedian types, and they sat at the table and cooked them themselves. Two weeks ago, I would have just watched and wondered about that dish, but since reading your journal, I knew what it was that they were eating! Reading your journal is educational, how about that? :)
This dish is so common in Osaka. Every household there has a Takoyaki cooker. How about introducing it in U.S.?
Hope you have a good day.

While I was away in downstairs for a few minutes, she was clensing a cock with a sponge and I saw it shining. Every time I saw the shining cock in my room, I feel gratitude. I hope she always keeps on clensing a cock.

One day in June, I crossed my 45th anniversary, so my girl friend gave me a present. She asked me what I would like, and I said I like red wine. She told me she didn't know about wine. So we ended up looking for her present in wine shop. I found a wine produced from Carmenere -one of the rareset kinds of grape. I said 'It's cheap but still it's very tasty. We don't have to spend lots of money to have a good wine. We can find cheap but tasty wine a lot if we knew a bit about wine.'

Show Her Beauty Off
[ #138974 ] Monday July 03, @12:41PM
Before she visited my house, she repeatedly insisted that she wants to visit my office. Of course we cannot visit inside my office, but still we can visit there as customers. She has insisted before she came to my house.
So we went to my office as a customer.
She is 46, but of course very pretty.That's why I fell in love with her. Many colleages amazed to look at us. I was reluctant to enter the premises before the entrance. But I decided to enter the premises after she told me that I mind a strange point. After we got out of the shop, I was very proud of my being with my girlfriend. Probably she wanted to let them know how my girlfriend looks. She is a very confident woman.
It's a bit topsy-turvy today's office. Many people told me it's unbeliebable I was able to get such a pretty woman. (I was known to be a holder of very unique personality among colleagues.) Other comments were her face is like a child's, her character seems strong, etc.
Again Red Day

Tonight was her red day again. About one month ago on the 3rd of June, it was her red day too. Last time I felt it lucky. Becuase I will be the father of our baby in future. But this time I am not so sure whether I feel lucky. I will be the father of our baby, on the other hand, that red also indicates she is not pregnant yet at least that disappoints me.

Saturday night. It's rainy outside, and it's unbeliebably quiet around my house. Tonight I am with my love in my house. For many reasons I didn't let any girlfriend visit my house. I had a feeling that the case with them was not serious, it was just a play. So I just didn't let them come to my house. This time I am very serious, so I invited her to my house. Right now she's sleeping next to my room. I hope she would be able to keep on staying.

My love age 45 is just an ordinary woman, last time we met she told me that a fortune-teller told her that she gets a boyfriend at age 46 and she said it was true since she got a boyfriend.
I am not sure whether the fortunetelling is really telling about the future, but one thing is clear. She might have acted according to what the fortune-teller told her. Then she said yes to me, everything started from her conviction to the fortune-telling.

We are going to have Gion Festival from 14th to 16th of July. So I plan to visit the festival with her on 15th of July. Those dates coincide the belief that the dead of our ancesters came home to visit their offsprings during these days. I don't know about the belief of samsara -reincanation, just I am sure the sound of drums reminds me the spirit of our ancesters well. When we hear the sound of it, we welcome summer really.
My Former Residence
[ #138577 ] Tuesday June 27, @03:54PM
I took her to see my former house in Kokura. She said 'It was rather located near the noisy road.'
Though all residensial area is located at the foot of mountain -so backyards are full of woods, my former house was adjacent to noisy road. I was there from age 6 to 20. I believe almost all what I am now are derived from my nature, though, I don't think all the environments I were in have nothing to do with what I am.
Messy
[ #138572 ] Tuesday June 27, @03:11PM
My room was very messy till yesterday. It took about five hours to arrange my belongings inside the room. My room was now alright for guests to visit. I haven't had any guests in my room for two years. If she had come here before I arranged them in the room, she might have considered I am out of sanity. Everything here was in disorder. I had been dedicating to reading and writing all the time I was in my room, so I just didn't care what's what in my room.

A driver who sticks a young leaf sticker is often called a beginner. A taxi drivers needs more advanced licence. If you think a beginner driver is poor and a taxi driver is good at driving, that is so misleading. Some beginner drivers are so deliberate because they just start driving on the road, but others are so dangerous because of the same reason. The same applied to the cases of taxi drivers. We have to examine what's genuine or bogus without relying on the labels they use. The labels tell nothing.

So here is the picture of Takoyaki. This food is very common anywhere in Japan, so like famous Ramen shops, delicious Takoyaki shop tends to attract many customers. So naturally I wanted her to have the one in one of the delicious Takoyaki shops in Kokura. Used to be lots of customers but we were unable to find them other than us. It was just over 21 o'clock. Many people were on the street. The taste turned out not as good as it used to be. The price was still the same. I don't visit there any more. On the other hands, the Ramen shop we visited over midnight was a full of customers in spite of the late time we arrived. And the taste was just the same as Kokura Ramen's, very exact and delicious one. We were satisfied with it. I intend to visit again whenever I am hungry. That Takoyaki shop -they used to use the most expensive oil and flour and very fresh Octopus and cabbage, they didn't use the rest of fried materials to fill the stuff of the ball. Everything changed from high to ordinary, the price was still 4.5 dollars though. There are two options for all.

Until I realized why I was so confused. I think it’s more common to spell tako with a ‘k’ in English. At least that’s how I’m used to seeing it.And yeah, great restaurants often stop being quite so great over time. In fact, that’s true of a lot of things. Enjoy them while they last.

The Fourth Night
[ #138564 ] Tuesday June 27, @02:01PM
On the 24th of June we had a date for the fourth time. At 20:50 we met in Kokura station. I arrived at the station prior to 21 o'clock, it takes only 19 minutes to move from Fukuoka to Kokura, though we had to cost 20 dollars. Time was not going to be the excuse of why I was ubnable to see her. Usually I don't decide where to go before we see, we decide where to go after we met. After we ate Taco ball in cafeteria, we went to see a dancing show. That cost 70 dollars. After we spent there for a couple of hours we went to Xehla -famous foreigers bar in Kokura I think. We had just arrived when soccer gane between Germany and Sweden were about to start. Several Germans and one Swedish were there. After midnight I needed to quench my stomach to fill something nutritious - Taco balls - a piece of chopped Octopus in a small dough to serve as a baked form was the only meal till then but we were unable to find good restaurants -there was after all one of the small cities- we barely found Ramen restaurant, ramen -Chinese noodles in Japanese style. It was already one o'clock when we reached a hotel. I had already handed down the Shinkansen ticket to Fukuoka for the next Saturday -on the 1st of July, hoping I want to end seeing one another spending usually 100 dollars for a night in a hotel.
Next morning till 11 o'clock we were in a hotel. As I wrote we started sleeping at just 3 and got up at 8 exact time.
We were not supposed to work on 25th of June, Sunday, so we went to a short journey to where I lived. Though it was very rainy, one umbrella was enought to show our love.

Resurrection in spiritual body is acceptable in the country that has a custom of cremating the dead body, however, it's hard to imagine as to the resurrection in physical body.
Besides in ancient times still the boundary of life and death was very ambiguous. Wake is a tradition for attendants to anticipate the possibility of the dead standing up again during the whole one night. The ambiguous dead within a few days in buried ones might have been resurrected again those days.

Divorce is not forbidden. Paul recommended eary church members to marry within their members. even if a husband is Christian and a wife is not, simply he didn't recommend a husband to divorce his wife. But if she is opposeed to his attending Church, he recommended him to divorce her and remarry a Christian woman in church. -first Corinthians 7: 10 -15.
If adultery really becomes a reason to divorce, marriage means nothing. We ought to keep marital relations in the face of adultery. I think that's the meaning of marriage.
If there are two standpoints to back someone's idea on divorce whether it is forbidden in any circumstances, or permissable in case of adultery, after all Bible was just made use of it.

I'm not afraid of reading translations, good or bad doesn't matter.
Today's all English translations or translations in any other modern languages are translated from Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek. But the authors of Bible who used such human languages translated from the word of God that is in essence not easily intangible in human knowledge. Bible was originally written in human languages, so what we ought to do is try to know the true meaning behind those verval expressions. Many translations were a natural result out of our endless effort to knowing the truth behind it.

I felt its necessity while I was talking to Western people in general. Now I am about to complete reading it. I usually read it two or three pages in a day.
How about you? I understand you are a diligent Christian. I hope I can solve some questions that I had while reading it through corresponding with a woman as you.

Blood
2007.04.16 1:02
There are three descriptions in Bible that forbid us from eating animals that contain blood -Genesis 9:3 and eating blood itself -Leviticus 17:10, and simply abstain from blood -Acts 15:29. Moses wrote not only which meat ought to eat but also prohibit the consumption of blood. I guess in his age people need to be instructed what ought to have. Because no one was not so sure whether they might catch some disease by eating some meat or blood. From his observation drinking blood often result in severe consequences among those who consumed it. Therefore he needed to warn by prohibiting it. I assume the description in Acts is the one that follow the restriction Moses did three thousand years ago.
The attempt of blood transfusion started back in 1492. It was not until 1818 the first example of success was reported. Till that year the blood type had been found.
No blood or blood originated medicine is safe from the possibility of being contaminated by unknown viruses or viruses that cause hepatitis. In fact some are sufferred from transfused blood or just medicine made by blood. But we mustn't forget tens of thousands of patients were saved from blood transfusion or blood medicine.
Moses prohibit the consumption of blood because that saves the life. In the same reason blood transfusion or blood medicine save our lives.

Ok, I am not familiar with this anime though I try to explain as much as I can.
1) What was the "Summer of Love?"
In Japanese or Chinese term for 'summer', it originally means the summit or pinnacle of something. I believe the term summer of love directly means acme in sexual excitement.
2) What is the Seven Swell?
Seven means 'perfect', seven swell means perfect erection, which is a yearning for all men.
3) Is Anemone a Corallian?
Anemone turns to coral after tens of thousands of years. This is a phenomenon Japanese are eager to get a fossil fuel.
4) What is the "Despair sickness?"
Søren Kierkegaard referred to despair as a disease that leads to death. Every Japanese have tanatus, because they know they never catch up with Westerners very high criteria.
5) What exactly is the Compac Drive?
That's what Japanese feel they are good at.
6) What is the political structure and history of their world? The Council of Sages, the Voderac, the wars they keep refering to, etc. They have this army, but no apparent enemy nation.
It's just veyr silly for us to seek for profound meaning in these settings. They all were set at random without seriously thinking about its factual background. All were made out of strange combination of their arbitrary choice of words and immature knowledge.
7) What they heck was humanity doing for 10,000 years after they left Earth?
Such settings are common in Japan's anime.
In current world Japanese know they always meet their match, so after 10,000 years they think they might be able to win.
8) An explanation of the last scene of the series. What is the final resolution?
Final resolution simply means 'annihilation' of all species. This fear is so common among all Japanese. Their raison d'eta has been always questioned since the end of World War II.
(I understand that Japanese anime producers count on Otaku buying and reading all the source books associated with a series, so that they don't have to cover everything during their limited air time).
Otaku(Nerd) culture has been much more flourished overseas than here in Japan, I believe.

One candidate to Governer here is an elite. He's graduated from the most prestigious university, the most prestigious professional school. Besides he's fininished the graduate course in Columbia University.
He was nominated at age 36. What lacks in him was experience.
Actor Governer
The governer of Tokyo won the election three times. His debut as a writer rose up to his last school days. He published his first novel 'The Season of the Sun' when still he was the student of the Unversity.
He is a politician, was a writer, he is not an actor, yet he is more actor than a writer, let alone a politician.

As far as I know he is a pianist. I often enjoyed listening to his playing Chopin's. His way of playing the piano is in a word like a flow, yet he plays it with the most precise way as much as possible as a pianist.
I like his thought. He takes very liberal standpoint. He has been a conductor in charge of one Japan's orchestra these few years, that was what I was unable to think of. This is significant not only in that he's a well known pianist, but I think this is a result his thought was reflected. It is something that is unimaginable for us to be able to invite such a famous pianist in one Asian country.

Throughout the history of current human beings, Adam is undoubtedly the most noticeable figure.
He started thinking who created him - the idea nobody never thought of before. He noticed he as well as his wife Eve were naked and started wearing a leaf of fig to hide - he was the first person who felt embarrassed in nakedness. He started eating unknown fruits nobody never ate before. He started moving to unknown land that is the first expendition to seek for a better life. He recognised men ought to die. Before him the concept of death was never introduced in their consciousness.
All are related to the birth of self consciousness. Before him nobody was aware of who they are. In a sense we all are sufferers of the Adam's family syndrome. If autistic people have a slightly different view from the Adam's family syndrome, they are certainly under the Addam's family syndrome. I expect another possibility to the development of new consciousness in it.

Aura
Aura is a result of fate. Those who had to fight an unbearable battle and managed to overcome it are only eligible to emit aura. This is not acquired in endeavour or intention but only by the result of fate.
I was obliged to fight such battle in lowteens, but since then I've been successfully evade facing any serious battle any more. I think I lost aura any longer, though, now I am much happier than before.

In this country's ordinary custom it's hard to take a rest even in a midsummer or winter. Some can take it but I am not one of them. Working hard is virtue, working very hard without taking any rest is vice.

Yes, in many German sentences verbs are often located at the end of them, giving them an impression of a superficial similarlity to Japanese sentences. Yes, for example English and Chinese are structurally speaking very similar, though their origin and development differs greatly.
It's intereting to know that the German learned to speak Japanese fairly fluently. He must have made the most of its similality between two very different languages. How wise!

Medical doctors keep a document for their patients pathology in documents. 22 years ago in 1985, one-third of all doctors use English and the rest of two-thirds use German that directly resulted from the fact that the first medical education was held in German in Japan's all medical schools. By the year 1977, 10 years ago, I understood all medical documents had been written in English. Till that time all medical doctors were educated in English/American medicine.
What I wondered for the first time in 10 years when I went to hospital was they use electric medical documents in Japanese language. Japanese language can be written in computers of course much easier than handwriting so it might be unnecessary for the Japanese doctors to use other language that is unfamilar to themselves, but I feel it questionable with a view to universality in academics.
