It is about my situation as a human who experienced in different environments. I asked myself that what is my originality? Who am I? Am I nothing?

 

I’m originally from Japan. And I got diluted in the UK. It may be counted as 50 Japan and 50 the UK or 80 Japan and the UK 20. But it’s not that simple. There are so many water everyday. What you eat, who you meet, what you talk, what you study, where you walk, what you find and what you feel. The small taps, a river, a pond and the ocean make your water full and release again. And sometimes became empty and full. 

 

I divided my hair into to two parts. The reason why the number of two is because I think when we get the water, we only can focus on one type of water at that time. If you get lots of water in different places at the same time, it will be flooding. 

 

I watched a film called “Paths of the Soul”. It was about A group of Tibetan people’s pilgrimage from their village to Lasa the holy capital of Tibet for 7months. They walked in a praying pose, which they touch their belly to the ground and meditate one moment to one moment. Almost the end of their way, they lost their car because of a careless driver but they didn’t blame him and let him go, so they needed to carry their luggage by themselves but they still continued their meditative praying. They didn’t show their frustration. They just accepted the fate. The way they accepted the fate was indescribably beautiful. They just see a thing in front of them. Even if there is a pool 5 meter away, they continue until they reach at the pool and they continue even on the water playfully. The way they accept the chances taught me about accepting fates anytime and feeling the water inside of me to learn from it.
