Rereading the diary
Ono Karori
It's been almost a year since New Year's Day when my family and I went to Hiroshima in December, where the winter sunshine feels faintly warm.
So, what will I write about in this blog?
Looking back at a post I made around this time last year, the title was "As one of the protagonists," so I decided to reread it to see what it was about.
These days, I'm so busy with what's in front of me that I can't remember the details of the past.
Busy days, once a month is fine
Taking a moment to reflect and remember how important it is to preserve things like this
If you read her 2021 blog, you'll see that it's become a place for her to vent her frustrations over the years of suffering as her environment changed with her marriage and child-rearing.
The year 2022 feels like I've been spending each day savoring all the joys and sorrows of being here right now.
The times I was desperately worried and struggling seem like a distant memory. The fact that I can think like that means I've escaped from the worries of that time.
I was able to see myself from a bird's eye view.
Now, two months have passed since I gave birth, and I have almost no "me time."
I cut down on sleep, gave up on things, and made time to write this blog.
Before giving birth, I used to listen to Voicey every day to gain knowledge and information, but now I don't feel like listening to podcasts at all.
I don't really feel like reading.
I'd rather sleep than exercise
Anyway, I get hungry while breastfeeding so I tend to overeat.
If you spell it out like this
I can't help but feel like a listless, empty person ...
In the past, I would have felt disgusted with myself for being like this.
I was trying to feel safe by taking action and getting information.
“This isn’t me!”
No no, this is also me, and now I feel like it's natural to relax at times like this.
It's proof that we've been facing it properly.
Once you've completely relaxed, your strength will begin to bubble up and you'll be able to take a step forward on your own two feet.
Once you start moving, you'll want to move more.
When I open a book, I want to read more.
If you don't have time, think about what's important
Just live so you don't miss it
What will you do in the coming year ?
I'm looking forward to reading this diary again next year and seeing what I think.
The final exhibition of the year at Utsushiki will be the Ryuta Fukumura Ceramic Exhibition, which begins on December 17th .
On the first day in the coffee shop, and on the second day, you can enjoy seasonal Japanese cuisine and the aromas of Spain at Sardexka .
In the second half of the weekend, head to Coffee Uranyo to enjoy a deep dive into the flavor of coffee.
We will be posting details on Instagram so don't miss it.
To express my gratitude, I would like to exchange words of thanks and wish you a happy new year.
I am looking forward to meeting you all at the end of the year.
