I wonder why there are so many scandals(crimes) and suspicions
of people who have big status in our society recently. I just
look down on them shouting in my heart,"Son of a bitch!",
but, on the other hand, I can't deny that we are also responsible
for such kind of scandals. If doing something is useful for me
though we know it's wrong, we never try to improve such situation,
or we pretend as if we don't notice that we're doing bad. Many
people live their daily lives saving their selves and working
just for earning money. of course, that isn't too bad, but I think
possibly this makes our world worse one.
Now I think that if we try to change our world better, we need
to change ourselves at first.
The important thing is to improve ourselves, I think. Instead
of speaking ill of someone else, how well can we improve ourselves
and how can we act? Of course, I know that we cannot do everything,
but I regard it important that we try to do our best as much as
we can. Don't you think so?
"Aikido" is the most suitable to improve yourself. In
Aikido, there are no games so that we don't have to sacrifice
someone else. In Aikido, we regard harmony as important thing
: Not only ourselves but also someone else is important, we think.
You improve yourself practicing Aikido. You don't have to persist
in Aikido, but you try to improve yourself thinking of harmony
with somebody else as the most important thing. And you do what
you think of as the best thing in your daily lives.
If you live in such a way, don't you think that you can change
your own world?
If you understand what I want to tell you, why don't you live
the rest of your life with us?
