Wednesday afternoon
Good afternoon, everyone!
How is your day treating you?
昨日の予報で今日は少し冷え込むとの事でした。
Did you watch the news? I’ve received the email saying that North Korea had fired a missile and it passed through Okinawa and fell in East of Philippine and South Pacific.
北朝鮮の話は本当に今年ずっと持ち切りですね。。あまり良い事ではないので、とても残念です。。
Well, I am happy it is over for now.
Now, did you think of your mentor? Who he/she was and what kind of influence they have on you.
For me, there are several mentors all over the world and they are great mentors. I wish they are here in Okinawa to teach more things. What’s interesting about my mentors are that they are usually very old. I have the youngest mentor who lives in Hawaii and she is in her 40s.
人の助言は、その人が聴くか聴かないかで大きく分かれると思います。
わかっていても聴けない人。わからないので聴けない人。
もし、「若い」事が良い事とするなら、若い人は経験が浅い分、もっと広範囲で人の話を聞く事が出来る事です。もし人の事を「聴く」事が出来ないとしたら、年齢が若いとしても、精神的に年を取ってしまっている証拠だと私は思います。
This is my opinion, people. You need to think of how you are able to listen and how that will help you through your life.
For some people, they listen too much and they don’t have their voice. However, it doesn’t mean that they are not important. They are as important as people who can speak their mind.
Think about yourself and see what is missing within you and what is good about yourself.
These things will help you to think clearer on yourself to think about your New Year resolution.
Mahalo and see you soon in class, my students!
