SPIRIT's Diary

Yesterday, I went to "Soyogi No Mori/Forest's Breeze" in Ayashi, again. In my church, the pastor introduced Jesus Christ's saying, "You are the salt in the earth. But What will it become if the salt loses the salty." I thought about "my salty" when I was taking the bath in Soyogi No Mori. Because my strength is only English. In my church, English teaching workshop will be likely to held. My pastor recommended me to join it as the assistant. But can I make time for it? My governance for learning English is only below, "To learn English, we have to write and speak English more and more, such as in SNS and so on." But will students follow me? With thinking about it, after I took the bath, I ate the crepe. It was sweet and delicious. Yesterday was very cold, but I made fun memories.

In my church, I join the chorus group. Today is Christmas praying days, so I sang the chorus. However, I had sore throat because I took liquor too much yesterday. I couldn't sing very well. However, I was praised much time that I sang very well with my beautiful voice. I was very happy. After playing chorus, we ate Hayashi rice and play bingo. It was very delicious. I felt I had become very exhausted before singing, but I became vigorous.

I have sleep apnea syndrome, so I went to Sleep Clinic today. Recently, I've eaten and drunk liquor too much, so my weight and blood tension has increased again. I said the doctor that I've had much stress, such as emotions that I hadn't done job very well, writing English diary and so on. So the doctor says, "You've overdone very much." Mr. Hiroyuki said, "The era doing own best have been over, we should live easily." But, in my case, how? I've chosen English as the tool for my surviving. So, I've wanted to use English more to learn English more. In the past case of praying with English in my church, only I joined this case, from many Japanese. Over and over, I've felt, that Japanese society is, "The nail that sticks out gets hammered down" ”A person with talent usually hides their best abilities ” "Silence keeps you safe." But, in my case, it's been NG. Because, "I don't want to be defeated my peer who w...

I said, that I prayed with English in my church. I was happy because my English made foreigners understood. I want to learn English more because I want to watch various things of Japan and the world. By the way, Mr. Narita Yusuke, the vice professor of Yale University, said, "In Japan, the English's needs will polarize. Ones will need English deeply to communicate foreigners deeply, but the others will need minimum English knowledge by using translation app and so on." But I think that inbounds and foreign labors will increase in Japan for future. To incorporate their needs, we need English to communicate. (There is also "plain Japanese"). Therefore, not "for knowledge" but "FOR OWN", we will have to learn English, I think. English will become important equal to Japanese. According to BBC, the brain of bilingual is activating more vigorously than monolingual. Anyway, by using English more, we have to learn English.

In my church, there was "circle for praying" today. There is also "status report and praying with English", so I joined this circle with foreigners. I was very tensioned because it's first time for me to praying with English. I couldn't listen English talking of other foreigners. But I could inform, that I want to increase revenue of my pharmacy and contribute my president. Nobody except me had joined the English praying circle. But if I don't join this circle, nobody won't join this circle. And I wouldn't win the peer of my church which works in JICA forever. She has worked in JICA, so her experience communicating with foreigners is far more than me. I want to watch various things of Japan and the world, and I want to inform Japanese culture such as Hakkenden. I can't dismiss this experience. After it, I ate salmon-rice as lunch in my church. It was very delicious!

It's said JICA is flamed now. One of my peers in my church works in JICA, so I wanted talked about it with her, but I couldn't do it. She can speak with foreign peer of my church very well and shiny. I want to become like her. From my experience, the best way to improve English ability is using English thoroughly. As Dragon Sakura 2 pointed out, most of Japanese don't use English, so they can't improve English. I've also learned English by writing English in this blog and SNS, such as Experimental English Outgoing. In EXPO 2025, English is written in exhibition. I think, that we shouldn't care of be called "Americanized". Because we can learn language by using it. I want to learn English more, and inform Japanese culture of foreigners, such as Hakkenden.

I decided to focus on caring before taking cataract surgery of my right eye. So I skipped attending the worship of my church today. I have to put Cravit eye drops 4 times a day. It's so troubling. So I have to stay at home today. While such day, I've continued to use PixAI. I made video of an illustration made by Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) This illustration is the base of the video. I was surprised because technology of AI system has progressed such degree. Someday, everyone makes illustrations and animes, by using AI.

In my church, yesterday was Easter Festival. With eating Hayashi Rice, I talked with foreigners more than usual. On second thoughts, I understand I can learn language by using more times. Of course, it's the best if I can speak English smoothly with native pronuncication. But, in my present condition, I can talk with foreigners moderately with English. It's better, not the best. Of course, I've not spoken my ambition to foreigners yet. My ambition is that I inform Japanese culture such as Hakkenden of more foreigners. But I'm embarrassed to speak it to others. General speaking, it's difficult for me to make foreigners in my church become interested in Hakkenden. Should I speak that Hakkenden may be similar to Super Sentai/Power Rangers? Anyway, I have to improve my English ability more. In quota about studying English, I could accomplish it every day, within the morning. I have to continue it.

Yesterday, I went to the church. It was good for me to talk a foreigner by speaking English. This foreigner, a black man, has become a regular of church.   But today's theme, Abraham clan's rise, wasn't very understandable. I managely understood that Abraham was a chozen one by Lord.   But, the staff of the church made curry. It was spicy, but very delicious. I was perspiring.
