What is freedom for me.

 For me, freedom means not having to worry about time. I think that time limit people's lives. For example, we have to go to our jobs and do housework in daily life. So we can't do what we want to do freely whole day. I think people all over the world must live while caring about time limits. And time limits make them tired and stressful every day. That's why they can feel freedom when they have enough time to rest and enjoy what they want to do. In my opinion, traveling is the best way to get freedom. When I travel during holidays or vacations, I can use a lot of time for what I want to do freely and enjoy some activities and delicious foods. The pleasure gives us happiness. So, I believe that freedom is related to our happiness.

    Indeed the freedom to do what we want, e.g. eating out, going for walks, visiting museums and so on, is one of the joys of holidays, either short or long. Interestingly, I think it is the fact that we don't have this freedom everyday that makes the freedom a treasured one. If I could do what I like each and every day, I think this freedom would lose its value. David :-)

      Yes, I agree with your idea. We have what we have to do and try to do that hard ever day, so we can feel the freedom deeply. That' why I think we should live earnestly.

    I pretty much agree with your idea that we can be free from time limits while we are traveling or away from our daily routines, but I think if we go overseas, we have to think about the flight time, or breakfast time. I feel a little less free when I have to be careful not to miss the flights, How about you???

      Exactly...Your idea is so interesting. However, in my case, I love the flight and breakfast during travel. So I don't feel them stressful. In order to make my travels better, I can think about time and get up early! lol

    You can say that again! Unlike daily life, we can plan how we spend time in traveling. That's why we can enjoy traveling. I think COVOD 19 stops people from spend time freely even if they want because it limits our action.

      Yes, I also think that COVID 19 influence our lives negatively. I was planning to travel abroad many times during my university term. The plan was dead due to the virus. I hope the situation would be better soon.

The future: My predictions

Image
 　　　　　　　　　The future of Japan   My first prediction about Japan is that a lot of people will be living in rural areas compared to now, because of the COVID-19’s spread, people are feeling unsafe, or unconfutable living in bustling cities especially for their children. I saw an article saying that some families are moving to rural areas to live a life they could not do in cities. They grow enough vegetables, or spend more time with their children. I think this change is a positive thing because major cities are overpopulated, so if more people move to rural areas, areas can be developed, and get more attention from tourists.    My second prediction is that about 50% of the population will be people from other countries. Before the pandemic happened, it was normal for me to see different types of people shopping or living next door. I think it is a good change because we might be able to absorb many interesting cultural things from them, and they can learn about Japanese culture by l

The best way to reduce crime

Image
 I think the best way to reduce crime in the community is maintaining the public order. I am going to show three points to approach the problem. First, the police should strengthen the control more strictly. If the police can see the deep town or everywhere in cities, people don't tend to commit some crimes. And I think it's good idea to give them more heavy punishment. We can also rely on the development of technology. For example, we can set security camera or something in the place where crimes are often done. Second, I think we can reduce crime by education. Teachers can tell children how crime makes their life bad and how crime is not forgiven. Not only teachers but also parents can teach them to their children at home.  The last one is that the city office supports unstable people. For example, they can set counseling offices where people who have some problems in their family can visit. Sometimes, the city officers need to visit their houses as observers. And the governm

A Turning Point

Image
   My turning point was when I chose my high school at 15 age. When all students decided which school to take, I had not decided that yet. This was because I had two options then.   The first one was to go to the high school all my friends were supposed to go, which was not a preparatory school. The second one was to go to a preparatory school in the next city. My teacher and parents told me to choose the second option. However, I didn’t want to do that because I didn’t want to say goodbye to my friends. lol   I was understanding it was my selfishness, so I decided to take the second option. It was hard choice for me because it was needed my tough study to pass the entrance exam. And I don’t regret this decision. Luckily, I could pass the exam and make new friends there. Moreover, I was able to study very hard , influenced by friends around me. That’s why I can take this online classes now! If I had chosen the first option, I would not have been interested in English and study abroad.
