LIVE THE MOMENT

Tokyo Joe

They ask why I came here.
They ask where I am initially from.
They ask my age at office.
They sometimes stuck on stupid faces.

OPEN, MOVE FORWARD

once i used to be ambitious. no wind or waterfall could stop me.
when i was ambitious, i was always alone at my heart, and i liked it.

and now, i believe that if I open my heart to people and I'm not afraid, i can make a connection to people and get along with them.

IMAGING

Atsushi Tsunoda is a well known nature photographer in Canada.
I met him through mutual friend about 6 years ago in Vancouver, and was so taken by his outstanding beautiful photography.
Since I was specialized in portrait and trying to capture the sense of humor he or she has, I wasn't so into nature photography.
When you look at his photography, you can't stop being in a state of high emotion, and it was very first time for me that phogography of scenery/landscape made me feel like that.
We human beings are to be in this world to look at the beauty of life.
the above picture is my casual capture on long holidays.

LEADER or DICTATOR

i don't want to be a dictator.
i want to be a leader.

leader is the person who directs or controls a group, organization, country etc,
and dictator is someone who tells other people what they should do, in a way that seems unreasonable

RANDOM SHOT

Self-actualization
Esteem
Love/belonging
Safety
Physiological

from the theory of maslow's hierarchy of needs,
if i feel like being involved in artistic activities,
do i want self-actualization?

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

audio book is very useful for me to listen on the train in the morning.
i was so influenced by audio book "everything in this world consists of hypothesis".
it notices me how our thoughts or feelings were made by hypothesis, and it can be changed by being conscious of that there is no "truth" in this universe. every principle or science or story that people thought truth in the past can not be truth now.

Thinking outside the box is very important to live a wonderful life, I think.
