A Year Ago

"I told myself that the sound of my breathing was really the sound of all the animals
in the world breathing,even the humans, even the boy, even his dog,all toghether, all breathing, all on Eargh at night. "
The Boy from Lam Kien by Miranda July

this is my fave Mirand July's short story.
i always feel the sound of the Earth just like that.

so i was in my office and felt the strong quakes on March 11th, 2011.

i never knew what happened here because of blackout, 

and also my iphone was not working.

the strong anxiety has been here since the day. 

there are places that are off-limits around Fukushima nuclear power plant. 

our government sent militaly there and emphasized removal of radioactivity. 

although tons of people are exposed to radioactivity, 

it is still expanding all over Japan now.

but our prime minister said that the accident was over and it is safe. 

they told many lies and the media reports them.

thinking about the people in my company who are 90% of typical Japanese.

they are indifferent to all things. they don't care about radioactivity.

they are only just interested in rubbish gossip news and the 1m area around them.

if i start to talk about radioactivity in my company, 

they will stay away from me.

i don't know why people never debate this issue.

is it too big? you can't handle with it?

i always talking about it with my very good friends.

anyway i pray for the victims of 3.11.

this is the Yomiuri, Japanese newspaper on March 14th, 2011.

i sometimes read it.
