“Excuse me, can you lend me the key? I’m looking for something. By the way, did you see the green baseball cap left here?”
Early in the morning
a woman stared in amazement as I entered the dingy locker room. She has just finished changing clothes.
She handed me a key. I opened the locker door I used the day before. Pull out various things, turn them over, and open the inside.
Gaze inside the locker several times. There is no baseball cap.
My belief that what I’m looking for must be here is so strong that I spend a few seconds until I can convince the meaning of the visible sight.
I don’t have time to regret it now. I hurriedly returned the key to her.
I lost my baseball cap and had no idea what to look for. My heart was about to fall apart.
Why do older people value tradition?
We sometimes come across small mysteries in our daily lives. One of them is a custom called tradition.
One of the reasons we do not fully understand traditions or traditional practices is the fact that all traditional things are formed by the past that we have not experienced.
In other words, we can be dominated by things we have never experienced or seen.
Older people do not get confused about tradition. It’s not because they’ve experienced traditional things, but because they just accept tradition.
If you look calmly, they were born after the tradition was formed, whether they were elderly or not.
So is tradition indirectly powerful information that is not directly related to the present?
I don’t think so. I think that tradition is still unfinished and is still being formed by us today.
Because our sensibilities do not come from nothing, but from the results of our activities to date.
Therefore, we cannot become the tradition itself, but we cannot completely break away from it.
“Did you find a baseball cap?”
She sympathized with me, but she looked down on me.
I despise myself more than she despises me. Am I so stupid that I can’t manage my personal belongings?
About ten hours later, the passage of time comforted my heart a little, but the wounds I had in my heart did not disappear. I returned to my room and somehow lifted the T-shirt on the back of the chair.
Really? I can’t stop laughing.
But it seems that I’m definitely stupid. When looking for things, don’t just look for what you can see. Look carefully at the part hidden behind something.
Three actors, one a woman, playing Hercule Poirot in Saratoga… “I’m not thinking of him so much in terms of a man or a woman. We’ve come a long way since Agatha Christie was writing these,” …
That’s all for today’s post. Thank you
