BGM: Underworld - Jumbo
This morning I went to the library to borrow Ryu Murakami's book "MISSING". TBH once I disliked Ryu Murakami (at least, I hadn't read Ryu's works as much as Haruki's even though I accepted they were great). Ryu's attitude and opinions seemed too "snob" for me. But now, reading the "MISSING", I find that he must have really keen eyes and senses to look at himself and his life itself sincerely. I just read this novel until the third chapter, but I feel that he has surely been creating his new phase. Yes, it's really honest and introspective one.
I remember the English class we had yesterday. I enjoyed that class very well, and think this... I needed to show the "welcoming" attitude to new members because I certainly felt that some new members couldn't talk well from their anxiety. If they could feel that fluent speaker must be greater than the new learners, it would be sad for me. Although this might sound too ideal, but I try to keep an idea that I can learn various things from the new learners/members. Probably this comes from the experiences from the "danshu" meetings I attend. New members must be our teachers who delight the way to learn the new things to improve ourselves. I want to keep this principle.
I talked about this to my friends on Discord, and one of them gave me this advice. "You can afford the chances for them of tiny successful experiences". This let me my memories... Once, I could speak nothing in public. Literally, when I met other people, my shyness had disturbed me to say something. But, since I started committing the meeting about autism of the "danshu" meeting, I can have achieved tiny successful experiences. They have afforded me to speak more. Could I tell this to the teachers and my friends?
At the break time of my working day, I re-read Haruki Murakami's short essay. He writes this. "In each shave lies a philosophy". You can learn various things from various activities. I am impressed by this.
