Walking upon the streets within Chiyoda
near The Palace perhaps is normal for an overseas tourist. Though, this
occasion is slightly different this time.
I have been planned to visit Akihabara for
hunting a rare material I can use later in my future project. As I heard that
the item is sold in a store, where locates between 3 animation franchise
markets. To make it worse, today’s 31st December and the stores are
supposed to be closed earlier in preparation for communion prayer tomorrow. At
that moment, I have no option but to visit the Fuji, southern of Tokyo this
late evening.
As I travelled throughout the southern of
this big city, many people seemed to enjoy themselves. There are some, for
example, who lit up a stick that ignites a spark, or enjoying a bottle of sake
wine singing their favourite songs. That’s because tonight’s the 64th
Song Contest which shows numerous renowned singers, ranged from bubble-gum pop
to theme songs, competing each other. I dunno what would be the price if either
Red of White Team won this match. But I’d best to rush than watching other
people having fun as I didn’t get enough time for that.
Step on the feet of Fuji feels much
different today. Maybe due to winter breeze greeting me as the sky is cooler
and quite adaptable for me to live in. Climbing upon the hills ain’t seem easy
as I have an average strength and I didn’t do exercise very often. There are a
few also who climbed as well, but they have immersive endurance and overlapped
me.
I finally made onto the summit of Fuji by
the time at 5 AM. As I walked the summit, I see the blinding yellowish light stroking
the very eyes of all climbers. This is the first day sunrise of the year, the
new hope, the man’s resolution to be achieved this newly year. Those are what I
can understand from the people here talking about it. As for me, though I don’t
seem to celebrate like the others do in evenings, I prefer to walk on my own
adventure to being stagnant in vicinity. Why bother holding your own desire to
go outside where you have your only chance to shine, mate? As I see the sun rising
above its horizon, I may have thought the World has ended its lifespan, yet the
circulation of human dynamics carried on through the time I’ve spent. We maybe
forgot what mistakes we had in yesteryear, but our willing to move on is still
there inside our hearts. This is how “ganbarimasu” expression means about,
right?
Anyway, Happy New Year everybody. I pray for your tranquillity and more prosperous as well as your closeness to your beloved ones. Aamiin.
