This my days :)

Toy box..

I remember something that someone told me a long time ago
They said
“Life is a toy box! You do not know what is in there everyday, but
believe that whatever comes out of there is not a bad thing. It is a toy
box…”
You believe ?

昔、誰かが言っていた言葉を思い出す。”人生はオモチャ箱！毎日何が飛び出すか分からない。信じて。。
何が出て来てもそこからは悲しいものは出てこない。だってオモチャ箱なんだから。。。”
信じる？

The year of 2012

We’re already half way through the year of 2012. I have faced various challenges this year. I met new people and I also changed jobs. I want to change my failures into hopes. I have one positive side that strives to move forward but I also have a negative side that is always trying to go back. I am always fighting on the inside, but I do not expect much out of it because I don’t want to face disappointment. I always have an ambition, because I believe that you can’t live without dreams. My jewelry is myself. I would like my work to define myself, because I am not satisfied with myself right now. Do dreams really come true? I always seem to go back to that question…

2012年も半年が過ぎていく。今年に入ってから色々チャレンジをしてきた。新しい出会いもあったし、仕事もかえた。諦めを希望にかえたいと思っている。 でも前向きな自分とやっぱり無理かなと思う後ろ向きの自分がいる。いつも心の中で格闘している。期待はしない。なぜなら落胆が大きいから。いつも希望を持 つ。なぜなら夢なしでは生きていけないから。私のジュエリーは私自身。どこかで自分を表現したい。なぜなら今の自分に満足していないから。想いは叶うだろ うか？いつもそこに戻ってしまう。。

Time

Each day is passing by so fast. The aftershocks were happening everyday around this time last year. I was so worried since we had to save energy. What has really changed after an year from the earthquake? I feel like I’m being chased down to time everyday. I had a meal with my mother for the first time in a while. We were able to talk about our lives, which we haven’t been able to do since we’ve both been so busy. My mother does not express her feelings as well as me. She gives a straight answer, a very black and white person. I told her about my feelings. She told me not to let my opportunities slip away. She gave a good advice on how although it is important to work hard at something, it is also important quit and move on to something new too. Would you be able to give it up?
一日があっという間に過ぎていく。去年の今頃は毎日余震が起こっていた。電気を節電してこれからどうなるのか不安だった。一年過ぎて、何が変わったのだろう？いつの間にか又毎日に追われて過ごしている。久しぶりに母と二人で食事をした。お互いの人生感を話す事が出来た。母は私のように感情に流される事はない。白か黒かはっきりと答えを出すタイプ。。私の気持ちを話してみた。母はチャンスは逃がしては駄目だと言った。諦めずに頑張ることは必要だけれど、諦めて違う事を始めることも必要なのだと言われた。そう、思いきってみようかな。。。
