眠れない女の子へ🗒️

僕は不眠症の時に①ブロチゾラム(入眠剤)(メディサ新薬株式会社製)②デエビゴ(エーザイ株式会社製)を使っている。デエビゴはBZ系睡眠薬(今までの睡眠薬)とは異なる作用機序で催眠作用をもたらす(効き方が違う)新しい睡眠導入剤だ。熟睡に必要なのは「安心」だ。僕の家はワンルームだが窓には「鉄格子」が付いている。泥棒・強盗の侵入経路50%は窓だ。残り50%は玄関ドアだ。玄関ドアには鍵の下に「突っ張り棒」を差し込んで鍵が回らない様に固定している。マスターキーがあれど回らなければドアは開かない。消防庁や自衛隊・警察特殊部隊ならレスキュー・ソー(チェンソー)で三辺ドアカットで開けられるだろうがその場合は気付いて起きるだろう。雑音が気になる時は左脳を下にして横向きで寝る。言語野は左脳にあるからだ。睡眠さえ取れれば人間は生きていける。君の快適な睡眠を願っている。

To the girl who can't sleep🗒️

I am using (1) Brotizolam (sleep inducing drug) (manufactured by Medisa Shinyaku K.K.) and (2) Deevigo (manufactured by Eisai Co., Ltd.) for insomnia. Deevigo is a new sleep inducing drug with a different mechanism of action from BZ sleeping pills (conventional sleeping pills) to produce hypnotic effects (different way of working). What is needed for a good night's sleep is "peace of mind." My house is a one-room apartment with iron bars on the windows. 50% of burglars and robbers enter through windows. The other 50% are at the front door. I put a "prod" under the lock on the front door to prevent the key from turning. Even if there is a master key, the door will not open unless the key turns. The fire department, Self-Defense Forces, and police special forces may be able to open the door by cutting the door on three sides with a rescue saw (chainsaw), but in that case, I will be aware of it and wake up. If the noise bothers you, sleep on your side with the left side of your brain down. This is because the language area is in the left side of the brain. As long as we can sleep, we can live. I wish you a pleasant sleep.

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/miss youと有難う🎧

今週は仕事を減らされた。半人前なので黙っておこう。僕の人生の前半期を音楽と共に振り返る。 32歳。東京。白金高輪。今週のアルバムはMr.Childrenのmiss you。「入れ替わった」みたいに別人の楽曲で彼ららしさがない。本人作と思われる曲は使い回しミュージックビデオの「Fifty's map ～おとなの地図」と「ケモノミチ」。後者は政治家の謀略で地獄を見る小説がある。桜井和寿さんの最後の曲にならない事を願う。日本国の権力者はやりたい放題で先を理解していない。人は経験した事しか分からないからだ。僕は思春期から怒らなくなった。父曰く僕は「冷めている。」本当に怒った時は相手(人・会社・国)と「距離を取る。」永遠に関わらない事もある。争いの選択肢は2つ。①戦う②距離を取る①は合法(正当防衛)なら無罪。多くの場合②を選ぶ。「お前がどうなろうが知った事ではない」となる。僕はジェームズ・ボンドと同じ冷酷な心を持っている。だが僕は変わろうと思う。「目の前の人を大切に」しよう。miss youとなる前に有難うを伝えよう。そして還る場所をくれた未来の奥さんに「心から有難う。」

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/miss you and thanks🎧

I've been reduced to work this week. I'm half a man, so I'll keep quiet. I look back at the first half of my life with music. I was 32 years old. Tokyo. Shirokane Takanawa. This week's album is Mr. Children's "miss you. Like "Swapped," it's a different person's song, not theirs. The songs that seem to have been written by Mr. Children are "Fifty's Map - Adult's Map" and "Animal Path," both of which are music videos that use the same words over and over again. The latter has a novel about a politician's plot to hell. I hope this will not be Kazutoshi Sakurai's last song. Those in power in Japan do not understand the future as much as they want to. People only know what they have experienced. I have not been angry since puberty. According to my father, I am "cold." When I get really angry, I "distance myself" from the person (person, company, country). Sometimes I don't get involved forever. There are two options for conflict. (1) Fight (2) Keep distance (1) is not guilty if it is legal (self-defense). In most cases, they choose (2). It mean "I don't care what happens to you." I have the coldest heart as James Bond. But I am going to change. I will say "Thank you" before I say miss you. And to my future wife who gave me a place to return to, "Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart."

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/SOUNDTRACKSと未知🎧

今週は在宅勤務をした。僕の人生の前半期を音楽と共に振り返る。 30歳。東京。住所不定。2年半位家が無くカプセルホテルに泊まって居た。僕はもう「頑張らない。」僕らはもう頑張らなくても目的を達成出来る。鍵は①マクロトレンド②運そして③僕と貴方を繋いだテクノロジーだ。今週のアルバムはMr.ChildrenのSOUNDTRACKS。円熟の域に達しながら、さらなる高みを目指し歩みを進めた20作目のアルバム。新しい音楽の可能性と刺激を求め、ロンドンとロサンゼルスにてレコーディングを行った。エンジニアにサム・スミスやU2を手掛けた名匠Steve Fitzmauriceを迎え、Jamiroquaiやビョークを手掛けたサイモン・ヘイルもアレンジャーとして参加。前作『重力と呼吸』で追い求めた生々しいバンドサウンドを生かしながら、温かく包容力のある音色を鳴らした。人生の機微をかみしめる「DANCING SHOES」、ここにあるものを認めてたたえながら、未来へ向かおうとする「The song of praise」。どの曲からも、日本を代表するバンドという座に安住することなく、変化を求めて進化していく彼らの哲学が感じられる。アルバムのアートワークは、King Gnuの常田大希が主宰するクリエイティブチーム、PERIMETRONがデザインし、ここでも刺激的なケミストリーが生まれた。

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/SOUNDTRACKS and Mystic🎧

I worked from home this week. Looking back at the first half of my life with music. I was 30 years old. Tokyo. For two and a half years I had no home and stayed in a capsule hotel. I don't work hard anymore. We can achieve our goals without working hard anymore. The key is (1) macro trends, (2) luck, and (3) the technology that connected you and me. This week's album is Mr. Children's SOUNDTRACKS, their 20th album, which has reached the point of maturity and is taking them to new heights. Seeking new musical possibilities and stimulation, the album was recorded in London and Los Angeles. The album was engineered by Steve Fitzmaurice, a master engineer who has worked with Sam Smith and U2, and Simon Hale, who has worked with Jamiroquai and Bjork, also participated as an arranger. Simon Hale, who worked with Jamiroquai and Bjork, also participated as an arranger. While utilizing the raw band sound pursued in the previous album "Gravity and Breathing," the band sounded warm and receptive. DANCING SHOES" captures the subtleties of life, and "The song of praise" looks toward the future while acknowledging and praising what is here. Each song conveys their philosophy of evolving and seeking change, without settling for being one of Japan's leading bands. The artwork for the album was designed by PERIMETRON, a creative team led by King Gnu's Daiki Tsuneda, and here, too, an exciting chemistry was born.

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/重力と呼吸とアゲインストオールグラビティー 🎧

今週は在宅勤務を始めた。雷は苦手だ。戦時下(ウクライナ)(ガザ)ではミサイルは雷の様に感じるだろう。相棒から首都直下地震の噂の話を聞く。「共に生き残ろう」と電話を切る。僕の人生の前半期を音楽と共に振り返る。 28歳。東京。赤坂。大門。物流・建設アルバイトで体を動かしていた。『007 カジノロワイヤル』のジェームズ・ボンドは38歳らしい。40歳までの6年間は「戦える」時間だ。今週のアルバムはMr.Childrenの重力と呼吸。通算19作目のオリジナルアルバム（カップリング集『B-SIDE』を含む）で、2018年リリース。前作『REFRECTION｛Naked｝』が全23曲の大作だったこととは対照的に、今作はエネルギーを凝縮させたかのような10曲を収録。また、初のMr.Children単独によるプロデュース作となった。映画主題歌「himawari」やテレビドラマ主題歌「here comes my love」といったシングル曲ではじっくりと歌心を押し広げながらも、アルバムとしては力強く爽快に突き抜けてゆくバンドサウンドと、エモーショナルな歌がムードの重心を担っている。カウントの掛け声からして勢いに満ちた「Your Song」や、ソウルフルなホーンアレンジが加わったロックナンバー「箱庭」など、ベテランの経験値と失われない衝動が両輪となってひた走るアルバムだ。

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/[Gravity and breathing and Against All Gravity🎧

I started working from home this week. I don't like thunder. In wartime (Ukraine) (Gaza) missiles would feel like thunder, and I hear rumors from my partner of an earthquake directly under the capital. "We'll survive." we says, hanging up the phone. Let's look back at the first half of my life with music. Tokyo. Akasaka. Daimon. He was working part-time in logistics and construction, doing physical work. James Bond in "Casino Royale" is said to be 38 years old, and I have six years to "fight" before I turn 40. This week's album is Gravity and Breath by Mr. Children. It is their 19th original album (including the coupling collection "B-SIDE") and was released in 2018. In contrast to their previous album, "REFRECTION {Naked}," which was a massive 23-song album, this album contains 10 songs that seem to condense the energy. This is also the first album produced solely by Mr. Children. While the singles such as "himawari," the theme song for the movie, and "here comes my love," the theme song for the TV drama, slowly expand their songwriting, the band sound and the emotional songs on the album carry the center of gravity of the mood. The counts of "Your Song" and "miniascape," a rock number with a soulful horn arrangement, are just two examples of how the experience of a seasoned veteran and the unwavering drive of a band can work together to create an album that runs on both wheels.

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/REFLECTIONと思考と道🎧

今週は忙しかった。『007 スカイフォール』の物語でも終盤、生家で戦っていた。在宅勤務に切り替えていこう。因みに、スカイフォールは「この世の終わり」を意味する。僕の人生の前半期を音楽と共に振り返る。 24歳。東京。赤坂。此の先如何するのか考えながら赤坂で過ごして居た。当時は働いていておらず働く事だけが人生の全てではない。僕の知り合いは「人間生きているだけで偉いよね」と言っていた。彼は去年死んだ。生きてるだけで良いんだ。それが天の道。今週のアルバムはMr.ChildrenのREFLECTION。2つの形態で発売された、『REFLECTION』の拡張版で、全23曲を収録。厳選版の『REFLECTION{Drip}』とは、曲順が大きく異なる。本作のみ収録のピュアなラブソング「運命」、切ないファルセットに心締め付けられるアコースティックナンバーの「遠くへと」など聴きどころが多く、2年4か月が費やされた彼らの集大成ともいえる内容となっている。発売前に行われた全国ツアーでは、アルバムの1曲目「fantasy」からはじまり、最後の曲「未完」で締めくくられた。型にとらわれることなく自由さを求めて突き進む彼らのエネルギッシュな姿勢がアルバム全体から感じられる。

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/REFLECTION and Thoughts and Paths🎧

It's been a busy week. Even the story of "Skyfall" had me fighting in his birth house at the end of the story. Let's switch to telecommuting. In case you are wondering, Skyfall means "the end of the world." Let's look back at the first half of my life with music. Age 24. Tokyo. Akasaka. I was spending my time in Akasaka, thinking about what I was going to do next. I was not working at the time, and working was not all there was to life. A friend of mine used to say, "It's great just to be alive." He died last year. Just being alive is good. That is the way of heaven. This week's album is Mr. Children's REFLECTION, an expanded version of "REFLECTION," which was released in two formats and contains a total of 23 tracks. The order of the songs differs greatly from the carefully selected version of "REFLECTION{Drip}". The album includes many highlights such as "Fate," a pure love song included only on this album, and "Far Away," an acoustic number with a heart-wrenching falsetto, and can be considered the culmination of their two years and four months of work. The national tour held prior to the release of the album started with the first song "fantasy" and ended with the last song "unfinished". Their energetic attitude of pursuing freedom and not being constrained by conventionality can be felt throughout the album.

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/[an imitation] blood orangeと目的無き疾走🎧

今週は前を向いた。過去は指輪と海に眠る。後ろばかり眺めるのをやめよう。もう僕は1人じゃない。大切なものが出来た。今ある人を失いたくない。 僕は同じ事の繰り返しから抜け出しつつある。大切なのは「学習」だ。もう繰り返さないと歩んでいく事だ。共に歩む「君」が大事だ。「君」が好きだよ。僕の人生の前半期を音楽と共に振り返る。 21歳。東京。三田。渋谷。六本木。成りたい仕事もパートナーも無く空っぽで疾走していた。今週のアルバムはMr.Childrenの[an imitation] blood orange。蛍光オレンジのジャケットが印象深い通算17作目。ポップで快活な「Marshmallow day」、切々としたストレートな詩が胸に刺さるラブソング「常套句」、東日本大震災の復興支援のために制作された「かぞえうた」など、異なる個性の楽曲が並ぶ。収録の全11曲には既発のシングルナンバーやテレビおよびCMのタイアップで広く耳にされていた曲が多く、アルバムとしてはもちろん、個々の楽曲の世界をじっくりと楽しむことのできる仕上がり。また「End of the day」には2009年までライブのサポートメンバーを務めたナオト・インティライミがコーラスで参加している。メロウな聴き心地が余韻を残す2012年作。

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/[an imitation] blood orange and Aimless Sprint🎧

This week I looked forward. The past lies in the ring and the sea. Let's stop looking backward. I am no longer alone. I have found something precious. I don't want to lose the people I have now. I am getting out of repeating the same thing over and over again. The important thing is to learn.It is important to walk away from repeating the same thing. I care about the "you" that I'm walking with. I love you. I look back on the first half of my life with music. I was 21 years old. Tokyo. Mita. Shibuya. Roppongi. I was running around empty, without a job or a partner. This week's album was [an imitation] blood orange by Mr. Children, their 17th album in total, with an impressive fluorescent orange jacket. The album features songs with different personalities, such as the lively pop song "Marshmallow day," the heartrending love song "Platitude," and "Counting Song," which was produced to support the recovery from the Great East Japan Earthquake. Many of the 11 songs on the album have been widely heard as previously released singles or in TV and commercial tie-ups, making this an album that allows the listener to enjoy the world of each song in detail. Naoto Inti Raymi, who was a support member of the band until 2009, joins the chorus on "End of the day". This 2012 album leaves a mellow and comfortable listening experience.

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/SENSEと目標と超越🎧

今週は丁寧さが求められた。会社への「不満」を同僚は口にするが「完璧な職場」はない。ヴェオリア社に感謝し満足している。僕は「幸せの青い鳥」を見つけた。此処でベストを尽くす。お知らせの通りデジタルデトックスを始めている。毎日を味わう。疾走だけが幸福ではないだろう? 19歳。横浜。日吉。渋谷。六本木。次は無い。兎に角疾走して居た。中部電力浜岡原子力発電所が爆発すると授業で論文を書いた。翌年、東京電力福島第一原子力発電所が爆発した。今週のアルバムはMr.ChildrenのSENSE。前作から約2年が経過した2010年12月1日にリリースされた衝撃作。タイトルや収録内容は直前まで明かされず、バンド側はプロモーション活動を一切行わないという異例づくめでの発売だったが、作品としてはバランスの良い構成になっている。劇場版『ONE PIECE』の主題歌として書かれ、配信限定で先行発表された「fanfare」が唯一のシングル曲。また、歌詞における比喩表現が話題になった「擬態」、前年のライブで演奏され、当初からファンからの評価が高かったバラード「365日」と、まさにこのバンドらしいメロディアスなポップソングが収録されている。これまで培ってきた彼らのエネルギーが存分に発揮された秀作。

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/SENSE and Goals and Transcendence🎧

This week, politeness was called for. No workplace is "perfect," although colleagues speak of "dissatisfaction" with the company. I am grateful and satisfied with Veolia. I have found the "blue bird of happiness". I will do my best here. As you know, I am starting a digital detox. I'm tasting every day. Running isn't the only way to be happy, is it? Nineteen years old. Yokohama. Hiyoshi. Shibuya. Roppongi. No next time. I was running fast anyway. I wrote a paper in class about the Chubu Electric Power Company's Hamaoka Nuclear Power Station exploding. The next year, TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station exploded. This week's album is SENSE by Mr. Children, a shocking album released on December 1, 2010, almost two years after their last album. The title and contents of the album were not revealed until just before the release, and the band did not do any promotional activities. The song "fanfare," which was written as the theme song for the movie version of "One Piece" and was previously released for limited distribution, is the only single song on the album. The album also includes "mimicry," a song whose lyrics have attracted attention for its metaphorical expressions, and the ballad "365 days," which was performed at a live concert the previous year and was highly praised by fans from the beginning, as well as melodious pop songs that are truly typical of this band. This is an excellent work that fully demonstrates the energy they have cultivated up to this point.

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/SUPERMARKET FANTASと黄金期と青春🎧

今週は課題が見つかった。僕がプロフェッショナルにこだわる理由は特にない。公認会計士試験に受かってしまったからだ。最悪働いてなくて良い。働くならプロフェッショナルである事を課している。目標だ。僕の人生の前半期を音楽と共に振り返る。17歳。横浜。日吉。渋谷。六本木。部活も引退し1番充実して居た時期だ。配信者は刺されデモ参加政治家は襲われ国の壊れ方は加速している。僕の黄金期はいつだろう?心の平穏がある時だ。第三次世界大戦が起きても火の海になろうと何が起きても日々を楽しむと決めている。人生はハードボイルドなのだ。今週のアルバムはMr.ChildrenのSUPERMARKET FANTASY。森本千絵による華やかなアートワークに包まれたこの作品には、彼らのポップな魅力が集約されている。シングルヒットを記録した「旅立ちの唄」や「GIFT」、ドラマと映画で大ヒットした作品の挿入歌として長く親しまれることになった「HANABI」を収録。ブラスやピアノがふくよかな音色を奏でる「エソラ」など、全体的に豊かなメロディラインを楽しめる楽曲が多く収録されている。このバンドらしい深い葛藤を抱えた曲もあるものの、アルバムとしてはメジャー感たっぷり。2008年、J-Popシーンの最前線に君臨し続けるバンドが、ポジティブな感覚に正面から向き合った会心の一作。

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/SUPERMARKET FANTASY and the Golden Age and Youth🎧

This week I found a challenge.There is no particular reason for my professionalism. It's because I passed the CPA exam.Worst case scenario, I don't have to work.If I'm working, I'm tasked with being a professional. It's my goal. I look back at the first half of my life with music. I was 17 years old. Hiyoshi. Shibuya. Roppongi. It was the most fulfilling time of my life after retiring from club activities. Distributors are being stabbed, protesters are being attacked, politicians are being attacked, and the country's breakdown is accelerating. When is my golden age?When I have peace of mind.I have decided to enjoy every day, no matter what happens, even if World War III breaks out or we end up in a sea of fire. Life is hard-boiled.This week's album is Mr. Children's SUPERMARKET FANTASY, which is wrapped in gorgeous artwork by Chie Morimoto and captures their pop appeal. Included are the single hits "Song of Departure" and "GIFT," as well as "HANABI," which became a long-time favorite as an insert song in the hit TV drama and movie series. Many of the songs on the album, such as "Esora," with its full tone of brass and piano, offer a rich melody line throughout. Although some of the songs are deeply conflicted in a way that is typical of the band, the album has a major impact, and this is an album of great promise by a band that has remained at the forefront of the J-pop scene in 2008, and has faced its positive sensibilities head-on.

プロフェッショナルであるために/仕事での反省点と修正点②🗒️

今週は上司からフィードバックを頂いた。僕は「落第点」だ。最近舞い上がっていた僕には良いパンチだ。 改善点が3つある。 ①実務を習得する事＝会計実務の能力が足りていない→意識して過去の仕訳を見て何よりも各取引を「理解」する事が求められる。②リーダーシップが足りない＝僕の能力と魅力がない→「頼られる」存在になる為に自分を変えないといけない。③コミュニケーションが適切でない＝失言が多い→「職場としての会話」を意識する必要がある。(結論)最悪の場合、頑張っても改善できないかも知れない。当社は僕に破格の待遇を用意してくれたが、アシスタントマネジャーになるのが早すぎた。僕は「背伸び」して身の丈に合っていない可能性がある。本日のアルバムはflumpoolの最新アルバムSHAPE THE WATER。「次のMr.Children」と言われバンドが低調な時も聴き続けて来た。僕は職場やプライベートの「目の前の人を大切にする」必要がある。父は言っていた。「目の前の人を大切に出来ない人は誰も大切に出来ない。」僕が低調な時も周りにいてくれた人に感謝し敬意を示し大切に扱う僕に変わりたい。

To Be Professional/Reflections and Corrections at Work②🗒️

I received feedback from my boss this week.I got a "failing grade.It's a good punch for me, as I have been soaring lately. I have three points to improve. (1) Mastering the practical business = I do not have enough ability in accounting practice → I am required to consciously look at past journal entries and "understand" each transaction more than anything else. (2) Lack of leadership = Lack of my ability and attractiveness → I have to change myself to become "dependable". (3) Inappropriate communication = many gaffes → I need to be aware of "conversation as a workplace. (Conclusion) In the worst case, I may not be able to improve even if I try my best. Our company offered me unbeatable benefits, but I became an assistant manager too early. There is a possibility that I have "grown too tall" and am not tall enough. Today's album is flumpool's latest album SHAPE THE WATER, which I have continued to listen to even during the band's slow times as they were called "the "next Mr. Children". I need to "take care of the people in front of me" at work and in my private life. My father used to say. "If you can't take care of the people in front of you, you can't take care of anyone". I want to change into a person who shows gratitude and respect to those around me and treats them with care even when I am in a low state of health.

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/HOMEと充実と協調🎧

今週はミスが多かった。ミスは繰り返してはならない。「数字のプロ」は疑うらしい。僕に足らないのは「猜疑心」だ。僕の人生の前半期を音楽と共に振り返る。16歳。横浜。日吉。渋谷。六本木。周囲とも協調出来る様に成っていた。もしも貴方の家族が背乗り(本人が連れ去られ別人が整形してなりすます)された時に日本国の警察は動いてくれるだろうか?警察は良い人だから動いてくれる?どうだろう。体験してみれば分かる。ホームとは生まれた国を言うのではない。帰る場所を指す。今週のアルバムはMr.ChildrenのHOME。穏やかな優しさに満ちた作品。制作時から日常の言葉や景色に視点を向けるというテーマが掲げられ、その結果、心にじわじわと染みるような楽曲がそろうこととなった。「箒星」など3曲のヒットシングルに加え、ファンからの人気が高い「彩り」や「Another Story」、シンガーとして生きる自身の姿勢をつづった歌詞が印象深い「あんまり覚えてないや」を収録。また、この時期に同じく小林武史のプロデュースを受けていたSalyuがコーラスで参加している。バンドの成長がナチュラルに形になった2007年の作品。

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/HOME, fulfillment and cooperation🎧

There were many mistakes this week. Mistakes must not be repeated. I heard that the "numbers professionals" are skeptical. What I lack is "scepticism". I look back on the first half of my life with music. Yokohama. Hiyoshi. Shibuya. Roppongi. I had become able to cooperate with my surroundings. If your family member was taken away from you and another person was used to impersonate him or her, would the police in Japan take action? Would the police work because they are good people? I doubt it. Experience tell you. Home is not the country where you were born. It means a place to return to. This week's album is Mr. Children's HOME, a work filled with gentle kindness. The theme of focusing on the words and scenery of everyday life was set forth from the beginning of the album's production, and the result is a collection of songs that slowly seep into the heart. In addition to three hit singles such as "Broomstick Star," the album also includes the fan favorites "Colors" and "Another Story," as well as the memorable "I Don't Remember Much" with lyrics about his own attitude toward life as a singer. The album also features a chorus by Salyu, who was also produced by Takeshi Kobayashi during this period.The band's growth took a natural shape on this 2007 album.

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/i ♡ youと困難と突破 🎧

今週はなんとか乗り切った。多くの人の助けのお陰だ。感謝する。僕の人生の前半期を音楽と共に振り返る。14歳。東京。お台場。中学2年生。相応しい場所が或る。疾走した。「遠回りこそ最短距離」だった。気付けば遠くに来た。「寄り道」しなければ辿り着けなかった。誰の指図でもなく僕は好きな人と何処でも過ごせる。「Worlds end」も僕と関係ない。今週のアルバムはMr.Childrenのi ♡ you 。2005年9月にリリースされた通算12作目は、情緒豊かな力作。トマトをつぶしたイラストのジャケットに表現された初期衝動のような、疾走感あふれる楽曲「Worlds end」で幕を開ける。前年にバンドにとって2度目の日本レコード大賞を受賞した「Sign」を収録してはいるものの、全13曲には陰のある歌が多く、その内容もハード。"Monster"や"Door"に息づくメッセージ性は、桜井和寿が人間としてさまざまなことを経験し、現代社会の混迷を知ったゆえに表現できるテーマかもしれない。バンドの進化とともに深まったその世界観を堪能できるアルバム。

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/i ♡ you and difficulties and breakthroughs🎧

I managed to get through this week. Thanks to the help of many people. Thank you very much. I look back at the first half of my life with music. 14 years old, Tokyo. 14 years old, Tokyo, Odaiba. Second year of junior high school. There is a suitable place. I ran fast. The long way is the shortest way. I found myself far away. I had to take a detour to get there. I can spend time anywhere with the person I love without anyone telling me what to do. The Worlds end has nothing to do with me. This week's album is Mr. Children's "i ♡ you," their 12th album released in September 2005. The album opens with "Worlds end," a song full of a sense of speed, like the initial impulse expressed in the illustration of a crushed tomato on the cover.Although the album includes "Sign," which won the band's second Japan Record Award the previous year, the 13 songs on the album are hard-hitting, with many shady songs. The message that resides in "Monster" and "Door" may be a theme that Kazutoshi Sakurai is able to express because he has experienced many things as a human being and knows the turmoil of modern society. This is an album in which you can enjoy the band's worldview, which has deepened as they have evolved.

振り返りとMr.Childrenと人生の前半期/シフクノオトと飛躍と2次成長🎧

今週は少し疲れた。来週と再来週は勝負だ。僕の人生の前半期を音楽と共に振り返る。14歳。東京。お台場。中学2年生。早く大人に成ら無いといけない。自覚し始めた。僕は思った。「誰にも頼る事は出来ない」。今では多くの人に頼っているので若かった。だが「自分の人生は自分で決める」とし飛躍と2次成長が始まった。20歳の同窓会の0次会でも「タガタメ」を歌っていた。いずれ親になる自分と子を考えていたのだ。今週のアルバムはMr.Childrenのシフクノオト。 2004年にリリースされた11作目のアルバム。ロックのヘヴィネスとメロディアスなポップのバランスが非常によく、親しみやすい作品に仕上がっている。冒頭の「言わせてみてぇもんだ」のブラスアレンジ、室内楽風バラード「血の管」で奏でられるシンプルなピアノとオーボエ、「空風の帰り道」の間奏でたゆたうスライドギター、ファンキーなホーンセクションに胸踊る「Any」など、これまでになく多彩なアコースティック楽器を取り入れることにより、音色に広がりをもたらしている。リスナーに語りかけるようなミッドテンポのバラード「くるみ」や、美しいファルセットが心に響く珠玉のラブソング「HERO」など、まっすぐに歌の感情が伝わってくる良作。

Recap and Mr. Children and the first half of life/Shifkunooto and leaps and second growth🎧

I'm a little tired this week.Next week and the week after that will be a challenge. A look back at the first half of my life with music. Tokyo. Odaiba. Second year of junior high school. I had to grow up fast. I began to realize it. I thought. I can't depend on anyone. I was young because I now rely on many people. But I decided to "decide my own life" and took a leap of faith and began my second growth spurt, singing "Tagatame" at my 20-year-old class reunion's after-party. He was thinking about himself and his children, who would eventually become parents. This week's album is Mr.Children's Shifkunooto. This is their 11th album released in 2004. It has a very good balance of rock heaviness and melodic pop, making it a very accessible work. The album features an unprecedented variety of acoustic instruments, such as the brass arrangement in the opening song "Let me tell you something," the simple piano and oboe in the chamber music-style ballad "Tubes of Blood," the swinging slide guitar in the interlude of "The way back from the wind in the sky" and the funky horn section in "Any", which will make your heart flutter. The mid-tempo ballad "Kurumi", which seems to speak to the listener, and the gem of a love song "Hero", with its beautiful falsetto that resonates in the heart, are good examples of songs that convey the emotion of the song in a straightforward manner.

僕も歳を取り「過去」や「失った人」を思う事が多くなった。Facebook裏話だが父は昔「失ったものばかり見ていると今あるものを失うだろう」と言っていた。僕が駄目な時も一緒にいてくれた人こそ「宝物」だろう。花吹雪が舞うようなきらめく夏の陽射しのような時は過ぎ華やいでた想い出も少しだけ落ち着きを取り戻した。君と僕が重ねてきた歩んできたたくさんの日々は今となればこの命よりも失い難い宝物。苦手意識を持ってた食べ物もスポーツも堅苦しい場所も君が薦めるんなら無理なんかせず受け入れることが出来たんだ。時に僕が窮屈そうに囚われている考えごとになんてことのない一言でこの心を自由にしてしまう。飛び込んでくる嫌なニュースに心痛めてまた時にはちっちゃな事で笑い転げて。一緒に生きていく日々のエピソードが特別に大きな意味を持ってる。そう君じゃなきゃ。君じゃなきゃ。そう君じゃなきゃ。君じゃなきゃ。これは未来の妻へ、未来の僕が送ったメッセージだ。君を愛している。

Song to Recap and Facebook Backstory/mr.children "Your Song"🎧

As I get older, I often think about the past and those I have lost. Facebook Backstory, My father used to say, "If you only look at what you have lost, you will lose what you have now. The people who were with me even when I was not good enough are the "treasures" of my life. Time has passed like sparkling summer sunlight, like a flurry of snow flurries, and my florid memories have calmed down a little. The many days that you and I have spent together are now more precious to me than my life. I could accept food, sports, and formal places that I was not good at, if you recommended them. Sometimes, you free my mind with a simple word to the thoughts that I'm trapped in. Sometimes I'm heartbroken at the bad news that comes my way, and sometimes I'm laughing at the little things. Every episode of our life together has a special meaning. It has to be you. It has to be you. It has to be you. It has to be you. This is a message sent by future me to my future wife. I love you.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/34歳とヒーロー🗒️

今週は佳境だった。正念場だ。「初心忘れるべからず」で「慣れ」てきた時が危ない。Facebook裏話だが、僕は34歳の誕生日を迎えた。良い大人になって僕はヒーロー像を再考した。本物のヒーローとは?①困っている女の子の前で立ち止まる事＝通り過ぎては意味がない。②女の子の求める事をする事＝自己満足は無意味だ。③女の子を助けられたか「結果」を見る事＝現実主義であるべきだ。④女の子に見返りを求めない事＝愛は無償だ。⑤女の子の幸せを願う事＝自分の元から巣立つ時は幸せを願うだけだ。20歳以上歳上の友人とカフェで話をした。人間はいつ「大人」になるのだろう?肉体の初体験と精神の自立を経た時だ。「永遠の子供」は母親の愛情が大きい。僕は赤ちゃんで母は死に乳房に吸い付いた記憶はない。「愛」の反対は「無視」だ。友人が『生き物大図鑑』のオオクワガタをくれた。仮面ライダーガッタクか。僕は1人ではない。好きだよ。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/34 years old And Hero 🗒️

This week was a climax. It was a critical moment. I am now 34 years old, and as a grown-up, I have reconsidered my hero image. As a grown-up, I've been rethinking my hero image. What is a real hero? (1) To stop in front of a girl in need = passing by is meaningless. (2) Doing what the girl wants = Self-satisfaction is meaningless. (3) To see the "result" of whether or not you were able to help the girl = You should be pragmatic. (4) Don't ask for anything in return from the girl = Love is free. I talked with a friend of mine who is more than 20 years older than me at a café. When does a person become an "adult"? It is when we pass through our first physical experience and mental independence. The "eternal child" is a child who owes much to the love of his mother. I was a baby when my mother died, and I have no memory of her suckling on my breast. The opposite of love is neglect. A friend gave me a giant stag beetle from "The Diversity of Life on Earth". Is it Masked Rider Gattak? I am not alone. I love they.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/体とメンタルの健康🗒️

今週は試用期間が過ぎた。半人前なので紳士である事、プロフェッショナルである事が求められる。Facebook裏話だが心身の健康を保つ為に「メンター」より以前アドバイスいただいた事を記録したい。自分への戒めの為。①見聞きする事に意味付けをしない②根を張って高望みしない③鬱の時よりハイの時の方が危ない④完璧主義にならない⑤だらしなくて良い(メリハリ)(キッチリやり過ぎると破綻する)⑥少しの秘密と嘘を付ける事③自分を客観的に見つめる複数の視点を持つ事(3点認識)⑦二重見当識(現実と関係のないテーマのみでなく現実に求められている事は毎日会社で働く事だと認識する事)⑧自分の主観・主義主張で動くと破綻するので防ぐ為には早くしっかりと休む事⑨「絶対に」と言う発想を持たない事(譲らない頑さが出て来るとメンタルの不調)誰もが体とメンタルを病む事がある。自分の「弱さ」も認識したい。「明日は我が身」だ。Facebookのストーリーも「現実」をテーマにしたが一層「人生を充実させる」事を目標にしたい。人生は「楽しむ」ものだ。その為には「休息」も重要だ。僕は「逃げ場所」を持っている。「病院」だ。本当に心身の体調が悪化した時は任意入院すると決めているのだ。まるで政治家みたいだが「逃げ道」を持っておく事は重要だ。今週も丁寧に1歩ずつ進もう。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/Physical and Mental Health🗒️

This week my probationary period has passed. Facebook Backstory, I would like to record what my "mentor" once advised me to do in order to maintain my mental and physical health. As a reminder to myself. (1) Don't attach meaning to what you see and hear, (2) Don't be rooted and have high hopes, (3) It is more dangerous when you are high than when you are depressed, (4) Don't be a perfectionist, (5) Don't be lazy (be smart) (if you do things too neatly, you will fail), (6) Be able to keep little secrets and lie, (7) Have multiple points of view to look at yourself objectively (3-point perception), (8) Dual vision (recognize that what is required in reality is to work at the company every day, not only on themes that have nothing to do with reality) (9) Take a good rest as soon as possible to prevent yourself from going bankrupt if you work based on your own subjectivity and principles (10) Do not have the idea of "never" (mental illness when you become stubborn and do not give in). Everyone can get sick physically and mentally. I must also recognize my own weakness. I want to make it my goal to "enhance my life," as I did with the theme of "reality" in my Facebook story. Life is to be "enjoyed". "Rest" is also important for that. I have a "place to escape to". It is a "hospital". I have decided that if my physical or mental condition really deteriorates, I will voluntarily go to a hospital. I may sound like a politician, but it is important to have an "escape route". Let's move forward this week, one step at a time.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/癖毛と縮毛矯正🗒️

先週は新しい仕事を引き受けた。今週はプロ意識が求められた。父はプロフェッショナルとは「ミス」しない事だと言っていた。ミスに注意だ。Facebook裏話だが先週末は渋谷の美容室に縮毛矯正とカットに行った。僕は少し癖毛だ。マッシュ風にして道玄坂のEXCELSIOR CAFEで珈琲と煙草を飲んだ。特にする事はない。幸せな休日だ。土曜日Pradaのシープスキンレザーコートが届いた。革製品はメンテナンスが重要だ。僕は渋谷スクランブルスクエアのハンズでドイツ製のブラシを買った。7階のagnes bでタートルネックスウェットが売っておりSALE品だったので買ってしまった。帰路に着く。僕は何もしない週末が好きだ。公認会計士登録の書類を修正し関東財務局に返信する準備をする。NHKも見なくなった。Xのトレンドもつまらない。どちらも国からお金が流れ「情報統制」されている。受信料収入・ユーザー数が減っているのも納得だ。こういう時は「無視」だ。僕は日本も世界も少し放って置こうと思った。その内何か変わるだろう。「放置」だ。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/Frizzy hair and Hair Straightening🗒️

Last week I took on a new job. This week it required professionalism. My father used to say that professionalism is about not making "mistakes". Facebook Backstory, Last weekend I went to a hair salon in Shibuya to have my hair straightened and cut. I have slightly curly hair. I went to EXCELSIOR CAFE in Dogenzaka for coffee and cigarettes. Nothing in particular to do.It was a happy holiday. My Prada sheepskin leather coat arrived on Saturday. It is important to maintain leather goods. I bought a German-made brush at Hands in Shibuya Scramble Square, and a turtleneck sweatshirt on sale at agnes b on the 7th floor, so I bought it. I headed home.I like weekends when I don't do anything. I'm no longer watching NHK, and the X trend is boring. Both of them are paid by the government and are "information controlled". It makes sense that subscription revenues and user numbers are declining. In times like this, I just "ignore" them. I decided to leave Japan and the world alone for a while. Something will change in time. It's "leave it alone".

振り返りとFacebook裏話/拷問と秘密🗒️

今週は仕事でミスした。再発防止策が必要だ。1月17日は阪神淡路大震災の30回忌だった。僕が20歳の3月11日、東日本大震災が起こった。国際連合の条約禁止兵器に地震兵器がある。人工地震か日本国民は「知る権利」がある。Facebook裏話だが、僕の投稿は国内法の名誉毀損には当たらない。「公益」に関する場合特例条項があり名誉毀損は成立しない。人為的か自然か次の大震災は迫っている。僕は余り自分の事を他人に話さない。特殊な家庭環境故、家族にすら明かさない事もあった。少年時代から僕は自分の「家」や「血筋」を他人に話した事はなかった。必要がなかった。僕は人生の総てを明かしても構わない。法に反する過去はない。だが相手が困る場合がある。僕の手足には幾つか小傷がある。「拷問」されても喋らなかった。僕は拷問中相手を罵った。『007 カジノロワイヤル』のジェームズ・ボンドの様に。お陰で死に掛けた。僕はたまに「古傷」を見る。生きている証だ。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/Torture and Secrets🗒️

I made a mistake at work this week. I need to take measures to prevent a recurrence. 17 January was the 30th anniversary of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake. On March 11, when I was 20 years old, the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred. The United Nations Convention on Weapons of Mass Destruction includes earthquake weapons. As a backstory on Facebook, my post does not constitute defamation under domestic law. There is a special provision that prevents libel in cases of "public interest. The next earthquake, whether man-made or natural, is imminent. I don't talk about myself to others very often. Because of my unique family environment, there were times when I did not even tell my family about myself. Ever since I was a boy, I have never told others about my "family" or "lineage". There was no need.I am willing to reveal the whole of my life. There is nothing in my past that is against the law. However, there are times when it is difficult for the other person. I have some minor scars on my limbs. I did not speak when I was "tortured". I cursed them during torture. Like James Bond in Casino Royale. It almost killed me. I sometimes see "old wounds". It is a proof of life.

振り返りの曲とFacebook裏話/いきものがかり『ドラマティックおいでよ 』🎧

少女は大人になる。張りがあった肌がきめ細かく柔らかく流線型を帯びるだけではない。女性の交友関係は男性の3倍で少女は少年より早く大人になる。だが幾つになっても女性は心の中に小さな女の子を持っている。オトナプリキュアだ。白馬の王子様を待っているかも知れない。その子だけの王子様だ。ドラマティックおいでよ。これからはじめる日々はわたしにしか書けないもの。自分を愛せなくてこぼれていく涙を拾えるのはどうやらねわたしだけみたい。ロマンティックな愛じゃない。わたしが踊る舞台は。運命に落ちるなんて嫌だな、この手で決める。いちばん欲しいのは生きている手触りね。わたしだけがつかめるもの。汝よ!肯定を!自分を慈しんで。もうドラマは生まれてる。楽しむが宿命。ドラマティックおいでよ。なんで生きてるのかな。誰かさんの答えより自分で解かなきゃ“お楽しみ”。ドラマティックおいでよ。これからはじめる日々はわたしにしか書けないもの。女の子の幸せを歓迎しホワイトナイト(白馬の騎士)になろうじゃないか。それが男の使命だ。俺は天国でも永遠に愛し合いたい。運命の2人は側に居るだけで何気ない日常が宝石の様に輝く。2人だけの"お楽しみ"だ。

A Song to Recap and Facebook Backstory/Ikimonogakari "Dramatic Come On"🎧

A girl becomes an adult.Not only does their taut skin become fine, soft and streamlined. Women have three times as many friendships as men, and girls grow up faster than boys.But no matter how old they get, women always have a little girl inside of them. She is an Otona Precure. She may be waiting for a prince on a white horse. A prince just for that little girl. Dramatic, come on. The days that are about to begin can only be written by me. It seems that I am the only one who can pick up the tears that spill over when I can't love myself. It's not romantic love. The stage on which I dance.I don't want to fall into fate, I'll decide with my own hands. What I want most is the touch of life. Only I can have it.Thou!Affirmation!Have mercy on yourself. The drama is already born. It is your destiny to enjoy it.Come on, Dramatic. Why are you alive?You have to figure it out for yourself, rather than waiting for someone else to give you the answer. Come on, Dramatic. The days that are about to begin can only be written by me.Let's welcome the girl's happiness and be a white knight. That is a man's mission. I want to love each other forever, even in heaven. Just by being with these two, they will make the ordinary life shine like a jewel, a "treat" only for the two of them.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/勝敗とパス🗒️

今週は準備だった。フランスから来た役員から「All the Best(幸あれ)」と言われた。Facebook裏話だが、僕は日英併記投稿だが余り海外を意識してない。他国で僕の投稿をチェックしている人はインテリジェンスか上流階級だろう。僕は外国や外国人を責める事は余りない。外国は外国なのだ。叶わなかったが僕は小さい頃サッカー選手になりたかった。2024年日本代表はドイツ代表と再戦した。最後のシュートを決めた時、ボールを持っていた久保建英選手は堂安律選手にゴール前で「パス」をした。自分でシュートも出来ただろう。勝敗はもうどうでも良い。僕は美しいと思った。「己」より「公」を意識する姿に。僕のFacebookは「パス」するつもりで書かれて来た。立ち向かう姿(FFXV〜ナルト疾風伝〜仮面ライダーカブト)を。デジタルの可能性(Digital)を。未来の世界、新しい国、多次元の探究(2030)を。究極の世界政府(3000)を。美しいもの(Prada)を。インターネットは時間と空間を越える。何故か?量子は時空を超えるからだ。将来量子インターネットが出来る。そこに僕のFacebookデータは移管される。「パス」し続けているのだ。これを読んでいる貴方に。そして未来の人類に。未来の人類が、「ゴール」出来る様に。そして僕は未来の人類から「今」という贈り物を受け取っている。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/Wins And Lose And Passes🗒️

This week was all about preparation.I was told "All the Best" by a board member who came from France. People who check my posts in other countries must be intelligent or upper class. I don't blame foreign countries or foreigners. Foreign country is a foreign country. I wanted to be a soccer player when I was a child, even though it didn't come true. In 2024, the Japanese national team played a rematch against Germany, and the last time Kubo Takefusa had the ball, he "passed" it to Ritsu Doan in front of the goal. He could have shot himself. Win or lose, it doesn't matter anymore. I thought it was beautiful. I thought it was beautiful, the way he was more conscious of "public" than "self. My Facebook page was written with the intention of "passing. The way I confronted (FFXV - Naruto Shippuden - Kamen Rider Kabuto). Digital possibilities (Digital). A future world, a new country, a multidimensional exploration (2030). The Ultimate World Government (3000). The beautiful (Prada). The Internet transcends time and space. Why? Because quantum transcends time and space. In the future, there will be a quantum internet. My Facebook data will be transferred there. It keeps "passing". To you, who are reading this. And to future mankind. So that future mankind can reach the goal. And I am receiving the gift of "now" from future humanity.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/大恐慌と無理なゲーム🗒️

意外と忙しい正月を過ごしている。大人の1人として格差と貧困の是正が気になる。若者が貧困で結婚出来ない。少子高齢化、人口減少が止まらない。僕は富裕層では無いが総合商社社員でも多くが節約していると聞き不況を感じる。次期米国大統領も「大恐慌が来る」と宣言している。若い人に助言だが不況下ではインフラ企業が強い。僕もフランスの水・エネルギー・リサイクルのインフラ企業で働いている。地味だが社会に本当に必要とされる仕事なのだ。日本製鉄株式会社のUSスチール買収が破綻した。Facebook裏話だが、2024年の3月頃、日本製鉄の社員と話す機会があり『大統領の介入』を言及したが相手にされなかった。鉄鋼は米国の経済安全保障の国防事案であり同盟国として日本は米国から信頼されていない。戦後A級戦犯(安倍首相の祖父)や日本の王族の一部は戦勝国に命乞いし国体保持された。岸田〜石破首相は新世界秩序(BRICS)(グローバルサウス)に舵を切りたいが米国に存在を許してもらった現体制(君主)の元では米国から離れられない。構造上無理なゲームなのだ。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/The Recession And Impossible Game🗒️

I am having a surprisingly busy New Year's Day. As one of the adults, I am concerned about correcting inequality and poverty. Young people are unable to marry due to poverty. The birthrate is declining, the population is aging, and the population is shrinking. I am not a wealthy person, but I hear that many employees of general trading companies are saving money, and I feel the recession. The next president of the United States has also declared that the Great Depression is coming. My advice to young people is that infrastructure companies are strong in a recession. I work for a French infrastructure company in the water, energy, and recycling industries. It is a humble but truly needed job in society. Nippon Steel Corporation's acquisition of US Steel collapsed. Around March 2024, I had a chance to talk to an employee of Nippon Steel Corporation and mentioned "presidential intervention" but was not taken seriously. Steel is a matter of national defense for the U.S. economic security, and Japan is not trusted by the U.S. as an ally. After the war, Class A war criminals (Prime Minister Abe's grandfather) and some of Japan's royal family begged the victorious nation for their lives, and the nation was preserved. Prime Ministers Kishida and Ishiba want to steer Japan toward the New World Order (BRICS) (Global South), but they cannot leave the U.S. under the current system (monarchy) that the U.S. has allowed to exist. It is a game that is structurally impossible.

2024年の振り返りとFacebook裏話/責任と銃弾🗒️

僕は半人前だ。多くの人に助けられ今年の仕事が終わった。上司曰く僕は会計処理をしっかり「理解」する必要がある。実務を抑える事が求められる。Facebook裏話だが、公認会計士登録は金融庁・関東財務局の返答が滞っている。官庁の停滞は国の実態を物語る。若い人にアドバイスだ。海外移住も選択肢に入れるべきだ。安倍首相は銃殺され、岸田首相は爆弾を投げ込まれ、石破首相は自動車事故を起こされこの国の混迷度は加速している。僕が当社を選んだ理由の1つはフランスが本国で海外勤務オプションも保持しておく為だ。僕は職場に馴染む必要がある。2025年は修練だ。僕の来年の目標はどんな時も紳士である事、プロフェッショナルである事だ。社会や世界や他人を言い訳にしないなら僕自身が変わるべきだ。環境は絶大だ。片親の一部は不良になる。僕が不良にならなかったのは友達や恋人のお陰だ。人は道を踏み外す。因果は巡る。行動には責任が伴う。何処かの首相の様に。『007 カジノ・ロワイヤル』でジェームズ・ボンドは聞かれる。「どうやって倒した?」その答えは...。

Recap 2024 and Facebook Backstory/Responsibility and Bullets🗒️

I am half a man. A lot of people have helped me finish this year's work. My boss says I need to "understand" the accounting process better, and I need to be able to control the practical side of things. Facebook Backstory, The Financial Services Agency and Kanto Finance Bureau have been slow to respond to my registration as a CPA. The stagnation of government agencies tells the reality of the country. My advice to young people. Emigration overseas should be an option. Prime Minister Abe has been shot dead, Prime Minister Kishida has had bombs thrown at him, Prime Minister Ishiba has had a car accident, and the chaos in this country is accelerating. One of the reasons I chose to work for my company was to retain the option to work abroad in my home country of France. I need to fit in, and 2025 will be an ordeal. My goal for next year is to be a gentleman and a professional at all times. If I don't use society, the world, and others as excuses, then I must change myself. The environment is immense. Some single parents become delinquents. I didn't become a delinquent because of my friends and lovers. People go astray. Causes and effects come and go.Actions come with responsibility. Like some prime minister. In Casino Royale, James Bond is asked, "How did you beat him?"How did you beat him?" The answer is....

振り返りの曲とFacebook裏話/一青窈『ハナミズキ』🎧

今週は大変だった。Facebook裏話だが、僕は昔米国から来た元軍属のビックブラザーとサウナバトルをした。チャイニーズアメリカンの超人ハルクに似た歳上男性だった。共にサウナに入った。15分後少しずつ彼の表情は苦悶に変わった。頃合いだなと思い僕は少し微笑み横になって寝た。彼はたまらずサウナを出た。彼と握手し、「Japanese is little but tough(日本人は小さいがタフだ)」と告げた。彼は認めるよと言う表情で僕の手を握った。『勇気』と『タフさ』は大切だ。若い女の子に伝えたい。悩んでいる時は勇気を出して心のままに進むべきだ。僕は君の心が曇る日も青空の様に少し微笑みながら君を肯定する。生まれてきてくれただけで完璧だ。健康とタフさが大切だ。親父は少年の僕に語った。「強くなければ生きていけない。優しくなければ生きている意味がない。」ハードボイルド小説の巨匠レイモンド・チャンドラーの美学だ。待たなくてもいいよ。知らなくてもいいよ。僕はいつも微かに微笑み君の夢が叶うのを願っている。薄紅色の可愛い君のね、果てない夢がちゃんと終わりますように。

Song to Recap and Facebook Backstory/Hitotoyo "Hanamizuki" 🎧

It's been a tough week, Facebook backstory, I had a sauna battle with a former military Big Brother from the US back in the day. He was an older man who resembled the Chinese American superhero Hulk. We entered the sauna together, and after 15 minutes his expression gradually changed to one of anguish. I thought it was about time, so I smiled a little and lay down to sleep. He was too tired to leave the sauna. I shook his hand and told him "Japanese is little but tough". He shook my hand with a look of approval.Courage and toughness are important.I want to tell young girls. When you are in trouble, be courageous and follow your heart.I affirm you, smiling a little like the blue sky, even on days when your heart is cloudy. It's perfect that you were born.Health and toughness are important. My father told me as a young boy. You have to be strong to survive. If you are not kind, you have nothing to live for."This is the aesthetic of Raymond Chandler, the master of hard-boiled novels. You don't have to wait. You don't have to know. I always smile slightly and hope your dreams come true. May your endless dreams come to a proper end.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/蕾と花🗒️

今週は来週へのプレリュードだった。僕は昔hana.plerude(英語のprelude)と言うアドレスを使っていた。スペルを間違えてしまった。アドレスはtubomi.r.i.p→ hana.plerude→hana.r.i.pという推移で日常のお別れ、「またね」は小さな死だ。Facebook裏話は、特にない。そう言う時はそのままで良い。昔読んだ木の話をお届けしよう。「温もりを求めれば枯れてしまう。受け入れればいつか本当の温もりに出会う。」1人で良い。その先に出会いがある。無理に人肌求めなくても良い。クリスマスも僕らに関係ない。1人ぼっちのイブも、誰かと過ごした聖夜も同じ価値がある。昔女性が言った。「人生はなる様になるのよ。」僕らは敷かれたレールから外れて良い。予想外も想定外も人生だ。完璧な人生は退屈だろう?完璧な世界も。1番面白いのは今だ。人生はどん底から這い上がる時最も輝く。完成する過程が最高なんだ。満ち足りるのは老いた時で良い。貴方も「乾き」を大切にして欲しい。空腹は最高のスパイスだ。たまには飢えてみても良い。清貧で気高いのは、紳士だ。過去を超える未来を作るのは、プロフェッショナルだ。過去の忘れ物はそのままで良い。至上最高を作る為に、僕らは生きているのだ。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/Buds and Flowers🗒️

This week was a prelude to next week. I used to use the address hana.plerude (prelude in English). I misspelled it. The address is tubomi.r.i.p →hana.plerude→hana.r.i.p. The transition is a daily goodbye, and "see you later" is a small death. In that case, just leave it as it is. I'll leave you with a story I read long ago about a tree. "If you seek warmth, you will wither.Accept it and one day you will find true warmth." It's okay to be alone. You will meet someone in the future. You don't have to seek for human skin. Christmas has nothing to do with us; a lonely Christmas Eve and a holy night spent with someone else have the same value. A woman once told me, "Life is what it will be."Life is what it's meant to be." We are allowed to go off the rails. The unexpected and the unforeseen are part of life. The perfect life is boring, isn't it?The most interesting time is now. Life shines brightest when we rise from the depths. The process of completion is the best part.It's only when you get old that you are satisfied. I want you to cherish your "dryness". Hunger is the best spice.It is okay to starve once in a while. It is the gentleman who is poor and noble. It is professionals who create a future that surpasses the past. It is fine to leave the forgotten things of the past untouched. We are alive to create the best of the best.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/夢と妥協🗒️

今週は小休止だった。メリハリは大事だ。Facebook裏話だが僕は何度か死にかけた事がある。ホテルの2階から落下した。車とニアミスした。他にもあるが、ご想像にお任せする。これを読んでいる貴方に「夢」はあるだろうか?目標は重要だ。だが「命」より大切なものはない。総ては生きていればこそなのだ。若い子は一生懸命で生き急ぎがちだ。僕もそうだった。だが10代、20代と同じ様に30代はある。夢が叶わなかったとしても挫折しても人生は続く。特に女の子は、自分の心と身体を大切にして欲しい。君は可能性で未来で宝物だ。諦め涙し屈しても良い。ダイバーシティ&インクルージョン(多様性)で女性活躍が叫ばれているが男と女は違う。母は31歳で死んだ。初恋の子の親友は中学生で亡くなった。生きたかったろう。生きていれば未来があっただろう。僕たちの生は無数の死の上にある。君が絶望した1秒も、誰かの生きたかった1秒なのだ。究極の選択を迫られた時、自分の命を選んで欲しい。「妥協」は悪ではない。諦めること、妥協すること、誰かに合わせて生きること。折り合いを付けて生きていくのが大人なのだ。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/Dreams and Compromises🗒️

I took a short break this week. I've had a few near-death experiences on Facebook. I fell from the second floor of a hotel. I had a near miss with a car. There's more, but I'll leave that to your imagination. If you are reading this, do you have a dream? Goals are important. But nothing is more important than life.Everything is only possible if you are alive. Young people tend to work hard and live in a hurry. I was the same way. However, there is your thirties just as there is your teens and twenties. Even if your dreams do not come true, even if you fail, life goes on.Especially for girls, I want you to take care of your mind and body. You are a possibility, a future, a treasure. You can give up, cry and give in. Diversity & Inclusion is being called for women's success, but men and women are not the same. My mother died at the age of 31. My first love's best friend died when she was in junior high school. She would have wanted to live. If she had lived, she would have had a future. Our life is based on countless deaths. Every second you despair is another second that someone else wanted to live. When faced with the ultimate choice, choose your life.Compromise is not evil. To give up, to compromise, to live in accordance with someone else. It is for adults to live with compromise.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/復讐の果てと愛🗒️

今週は紳士である事、プロフェッショナルである事が試された。まだ上手くは出来ていないが変わろうと踠いている。Facebook裏話だが、僕は父曰く「正義感が強い。」片親だった事もあり少年時代から友人や先輩には不良もいた。それでも僕は非行や犯罪とは一線を画してきた。別件・微罪逮捕を良しとしないが法は守るべきものなのだ。20代の頃は社会の不条理や理不尽に憤りを感じた。22歳の時、大阪で歳上の女の人を助けようとした。上手く出来なかった。父も40代までアンガーマネジメントが出来なかったと言っていた。誰もが自分の人生の主人公だ。 FINAL FANTASY XVでは初代王ソムヌスは憎しみに呑まれてしまう。僕は王様ではないが「主人公ならどう考えるか?」と自分に問う様になった。憎しみは報復と怨讐を生む。復讐は心を曇らす。若い頃は心で戦っていた記憶があるが、戦いは麻薬だ。戦闘そのものに価値を見出してしまう。その結果血と涙で人生を浪費する。僕は正当防衛を除き修羅道から身を引いた。相手を打ち負かす事より自分が変わっていく事を選んだ。父は以前海が見える街に住んでいた。奥さんを亡くした後、どんな気持ちで海を眺めていたのだろう。僕は心の海に身を置く。波が来る。寄せては返す営みの中で僕は遥か未来で生まれる自分の娘を想う。生まれるお前を、待っているんだ。僕のFacebookにある根底の物語は「愛」だ。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/The End of Revenge and Love🗒️

This week has been a test of being a gentleman and a professional. I'm still not doing it well, but I'm wriggling to change. Facebook Backstory, I have a "strong sense of justice," according to my father. As a single parent, I had friends and seniors who were delinquents. Even so, I have always kept a clear line between delinquency and crime. When I was in my 20s, I was angry at the absurdity and unreasonableness of society. When he was 22, he tried to help an older woman in Osaka. I couldn't do it well. My father also told me that he could not manage anger management until he was in his 40s. Everyone is the protagonist of his or her own life. In FINAL FANTASY XV, the first king, Somnus, is consumed by hatred. I am not a king, but I started to ask myself, "How would I think if I were the hero?" Hatred begets revenge and vengeance. Revenge clouds the mind. I remember fighting with my heart when I was young, but fighting is a drug. I found value in the battle itself.As a result, we waste our lives in blood and tears. I withdrew myself from the endless war except for self-defense. I chose to change myself rather than to defeat my opponent. My father used to live in a town with a view of the sea. I wonder how he felt looking at the sea after he lost his wife. I put myself in the sea of my heart. Waves come. I think of my daughter, who will be born far in the future, in the midst of the activities that come and go. I am waiting for you to be born. The underlying story in my Facebook is "love".

振り返りの曲とFacebook裏話/宇多田ヒカル『Show Me Love (Not A Dream) 』🎧

Facebookをまだ始める前の話だが、僕が公認会計士試験に合格する2年前、18歳の時、妹がミスコンテスト準グランプリになった美人姉妹の女の子が僕に言った。「自分を特別だと思わないで。」俺は逃げない。何ものからも。抑え込んだ其れは消えず湖の底へゆっくりとまた沈んでく。二兎を追う者一兎も得ず。矛盾に疲れて少し心が重くなる。逃げたら余計怖くなるだけって分かってはいるつもり。心配しなくてもいつかきっと、なんて言えない。自信の無さに甘えてちゃ見えぬ。私の内なるパッセージ。内なるパッセージ。紫の信号が点灯って思考停止。不安だけが止まらない。私は弱い。だけどそれは別に恥ずかしいことじゃない。実際、誰しも深い闇を抱えてりゃいい。時に病んで、もがいて、叫んで叫んで。痛みの元を辿って。元を辿って。築き上げたセオリー忘れよう。山は登ったら降りるものよ。実際、どんなに深い愛も完璧じゃない。自分でしか自分にしてあげられない。自分を認めるcourage。実際、夢ばかり見ていたと気付いた時、初めて自力で一歩踏み出す。私の内なるパッセージ。内なるパッセージ。昆虫が幼体から成虫に変わる時、蛹の中は液体になっている。変化とは自分を壊し作り直す事で、命の危険を伴う。それを人は「変身」と呼ぶ。

Song to Recap and Facebook Backstory/Hikaru Utada "Show Me Love (Not A Dream)"🎧

Before I started Facebook yet, two years before I passed the CPA exam, when I was 18 years old, a beautiful sister girl, whose younger sister was the runner-up in the Miss Contest, said to me, "You are not special. Don't think you're special." I don't run away. I don't run away from anything. The thing that I have suppressed will not disappear and will slowly sink back down to the bottom of the lake. He who runs after two hares will catch no hares. Tired of the contradiction, my heart becomes a little heavy.I know that if I run away, it will only make me even more scared. I can't say, "Don't worry, it will happen someday. I can't see if I'm taking advantage of my lack of self-confidence. My inner passage.My inner passage. The purple signal is lit up and I stop thinking. I can't stop being anxious. I am weak. But that's nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, everyone should have a deep darkness. Sometimes we get sick, struggle, scream and shout. Trace the pain back to its source. Trace it back to its source. Forget the theories you've built up. The mountain has to come down.In fact, even the deepest love is not perfect. Only you can do it for yourself.The courage to admit to myself that, in fact, it is only when I realize that I have been dreaming that I take the first step on my own. My inner passage. My inner passage. When an insect changes from a larva to an adult, the inside of the pupa is liquid. Change means to destroy and remake oneself, and it is life-threatening. People call it "metamorphosis".

振り返りとFacebook裏話/1,000年に1人の美少女と生まれた場所🗒️

今週は反省だった。日々学びだ。今回のFacebook裏話は8年前の話だ。24歳の時、僕は赤坂の安い1Rのマンションに住んでいた。その1年後、TBS近くの今は無きCAFE VELOCEで僕は珈琲片手に煙草を吸っていた。その時大人と共にサングラスを掛けた整った目鼻立ちの颯爽とした女の子が入店して来た。僕の勘違いでなければそれが彼女だ。僕は見た目で恋に落ちるタイプではない。例え有名女優であってもだ。僕が彼女を想う理由の一つは父方が同じ福岡出身という事だ。僕も半分は同郷なのだ。祖父は石川で、母方は愛媛だ。僕の性格は父曰く四国人の母親似でマイペースでのんびりしている。僕は東京都渋谷区広尾の出身だ。僕の故郷は広尾だ。広尾商店街のお寺の小さな納骨堂に母は眠っている。その隣には当時父が入院中の母の退院後の希望の為に引っ越した僕の生家がある。「人はいずれ故郷に帰る」と言う。『007 スカイフォール』の様に。しかし僕は死んでも母の元に還ろうとは思わない。もう生まれ変わりたくない。これで最後の人生にしたいのだ。僕はずっと、天国でも永遠に共に過ごせる人を探している。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/Beautiful girl in 1,000 year And Where I was born🗒️

This week was a reflection.Every day is a learning experience. This Facebook backstory is eight years ago. When I was 24 years old, I was living in a cheap 1R apartment in Akasaka, Tokyo. A year later, I was smoking a cigarette with a cup of coffee in my hand at the now-defunct CAFE VELOCE near TBS. At that time, a dashing girl with well-defined eyes and nose wearing sunglasses came into the store with an adult. If I am not mistaken, that was her. I am not the type to fall in love based on looks. Even if she is a famous actress.One of the reasons why I was attracted to her was that she was from Fukuoka, where my father's family is also from.I am half from the same hometown. My grandfather is from Ishikawa and my mother is from Ehime.My father says that my personality is like my mother's, who is from Shikoku, and that I am slow-paced and laid-back. I was born in Hiroo, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo. My hometown is Hiroo.My mother is buried in a small ossuary at a temple in the Hiroo shopping district.Next to it is the house where I was born, which my father moved to for the sake of my mother's hope after she was discharged from the hospital at that time. They say, "People will eventually return to their hometowns. Like in "007 Skyfall". But I don't want to go back to my mother even if I die. I don't want to be born again. I want this to be my last life.I am always looking for someone I can spend eternity with, even in heaven.

プロフェッショナルである為に/仕事での反省点と修正点①🗒️

お金を頂いているならば、プロフェッショナルでなければならない。仕事での反省点と修正点を記録しておく。公認会計士を目指す人たち、会計業界を志望する人たちの為に。何よりも自分自身の腕を上げる為に。①メールや証憑をよく読み取引の実態(どんな製品やサービスをどの様に販売/提供しているのか)を理解する。②会計基準に法律関係を合わせる(契約締結/変更)事も考える。③会計と税務(国税庁HP/タックスアンサーなど)両方の視点を大切にする。④会計基準だけでなく税法改正もアップデートする(ex. 交際費規定)。⑤メールチェックと迅速・正確な返信。紳士である事、プロフェッショナルである事。俺、変わるんだ。

To Be Professional/Reflections and Corrections at Work①🗒️

If you are getting paid, you must be professional.I will record my reflections and corrections at work. For aspiring CPAs and those who want to enter the accounting industry. Above all, to improve my own skills. ①Read emails and vouchers carefully to understand the reality of transactions (what products and services are being sold/provided and how). ②Consider the legal relationship with the accounting standards (contract conclusion/change). ③To keep in mind the perspectives of both accounting and taxation (National Tax Agency website/tax answers, etc.). ④Update not only accounting standards but also tax law revisions (ex. entertainment expense regulations). ⑤Checking e-mails and replying promptly and accurately.Be a gentleman and professional.I will change.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/丁寧さと初秋🗒️

今週は余り頑張らなかった。徒競走よりもマラソンを意識しているのだ。僕にプロフェッショナルとして足りないものがはっきり分かった。「丁寧さ」だ。父曰く僕は「せっかち」なのだ。丁寧な①仕事②人間関係③生活。稚拙で無く何事もじっくりと取り組む事。前職でも部長に指摘されたが、未だ出来ていない。Facebook裏話だが、僕は投稿を始めて10年近く経つ。昨日よりも今日、そして明日、少しでも進化出来る様に投稿を考えて来た。「公益に資する事」、僕の勤めるヴェオリア社のパーパスであり僕のFacebookの存在意義なのだ。しかし今を「愛する事」は進歩と同じ位大切だと気付いた。これを読んでいる貴方は人生を愛せているだろうか?「愛する余裕なんて無いよ」と思われるかもしれない。僕らに必要なのは、今を愛する事だ。父は「目の前の人を大切に出来ない人は、誰も大切に出来ない」と言っていた。僕は何故、繰り返す別れを受け入れて来たのだろう。安らげる場所は自分で作り出す物だった。秋風に吹かれて思う。父にもっと優しく接しておけば良かった。初秋の季節は、とうに過去になった。怒りや憎しみに呑まれない事、それは、紳士だ。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/Care and Early Autumn🗒️

I didn't work too hard this week.I am more aware of the marathon than the sprint. I have clearly identified what I am lacking professionally: politeness.It's politeness. According to my father, I am "impatient. Careful 1) work, 2) relationships, and 3) life. I have to be careful and take my time in everything I do. I have been posting on Facebook for almost 10 years now. I have been thinking about posting so that I can evolve as much as possible today and tomorrow rather than yesterday. To serve the public interest" is the purpose of the company I work for, Veolia, and the reason for my Facebook presence. But I have realized that "loving" the present is just as important as progress. If you are reading this, are you loving your life?You may be thinking, "I don't have time to love.What we need is to love the present. My father used to say, "If you can't love the person in front of you, you can't love anyone". I wonder why I have accepted repeated goodbyes. A place where I can be at peace is something I create by myself. The autumn breeze is blowing and I think, I should have been kinder to my father. The early autumn season is long past. To not be consumed by anger and hatred, that's being a gentleman.

振り返りとFacebook裏話/変化と時代🗒️

今週も慌ただしく過ぎていった。忙しい僕らだ。紳士である事、プロフェッショナルである事、自分に課した誓いだ。巨匠パブロ・ピカソは女性遍歴と共に画風が変わってきた。通り過ぎる女の人と共に自分を変え続けてきたのだ。僕は彼の様な華麗なロマンスはないが、彼を模倣(コピー)している。生物学者ダーウィンは「強いものが生き残るのではない。環境の変化に対応できたものが生き残る」と言った。思えば僕自身何度も自分を変えて来た。この文章を読まれて「変わるなんて無理だよ」と思った方は「①思考が変われば行動が変わる。②行動が変われば習慣が変わる。③習慣が変われば人生が変わる。④人生が変われば世界が変わる。」と捉え変わるってほんの小さな事からで良いんだと思って頂けたら幸いだ。これは裏話だが僕のFacebookの投稿はピカソの作品の様にその年代ごとにテーマと時代がある。FINAL FANTASY XVの時代。NARUTO疾風伝の時代。仮面ライダーカブトの時代。デジタルの時代。2030年の時代。CARD MASTERの時代。Book Nationの時代。白の時代。これは先述のパブロ・ピカソを参考にしている。僕のFacebookは繋がり500人超のLinkedInと違い友達をあえて登録せず「いいね・コメント」が出来ない様にしている。日記を付けない僕の記録代わりであり作品なのだ。

Recap and Facebook Backstory/Change and Times🗒️

Another hectic week has passed. We are busy people. Being a gentleman and a professional, a vow I have made to myself. Pablo Picasso, the great master, changed his style of painting as he became more and more involved with women. He kept changing himself along with the women who passed by. I don't have the same glamorous romance as him, but I am emulating (copying) him. The biologist Darwin said, "It is not the strongest that survive. It is those who are able to adapt to changes in the environment that survive. Looking back, I myself have changed myself many times. If you think it is impossible to change after reading this article, I suggest you to think about the following: 1) If you change your thoughts, you will change your actions. If your actions change, your habits change. If your habits change, your life will change. If your life changes, the world changes. I hope you can see that change can start with the smallest of things. This is a backstory, but my Facebook posts, like Picasso's works, have a theme and era for each year: FINAL FANTASY XV era, NARUTO Shippuden era, Masked Rider Kabuto era. Digital era. 2030 era. CARD MASTER era. Book Nation era. White era. This is in reference to the aforementioned Pablo Picasso. Unlike LinkedIn, where I have over 500 connections, my Facebook page does not allow me to add friends, and I do not allow "likes" and "comments". It is a record and a work of art for me, who does not keep a diary.
