Driving Ms. Bee

The day before yesterday, I gave a quiz what was the situation about Mothra in front of me.
There came an answer that it stopped on the front glasses in my car in the garage. I drove with her on my way to the shopping store.
She still stayed there for ten minutes drive at the shopping store. So I could take a lot of pictures of her while i was in the car and then she flew away and I never took her back with me to my home.
I'm not sure she could come back home by herself.



It was a funny trip like the movie
' Driving Miss Daisy '

Sailing

No wind but several yachts on sail.
It seems good to practice sailing for beginners.
It would be nice to sail on such lovely sound waves.

The twilight

Wishing the peaceful sunset to make the brilliant sunrise.
I saw the color in the twilight and the sky is getting darker and darker.
It's much earlier darkening than before in summer but you can stay at night longer and more at home as it's getting colder outside.
The nature is preparing for the winter sleep.
We will also have to get ready for the fartherest from the Sun.

Finding the Fall today

Let's get autumn color here and there.
Let me know the beautiful spot in your neighborhood.
This is the one where I walk with my dog in my neighbor.
The big tree is very magnificent with red tiny fruits in front of the entrance.
I don't know the name.
But I found it on the web. It may be about it.

They are beautiful at their most now. It makes my entrance in good fragrance and happy feeling.

Life is ....

Life is what you make of it.

It's said by Namutaka of Little Charo2, today's morning radio stream.
Namutaka used to be a warrior of God and given forever life as a reward of his great dedications for God.

But he has a painful regret life for his wife who had been waiting for his being back and wanted to share the end of life together. He had never been back to her as his sweet heart except at a glance of a stranger.

He continuously talked to Charo; life is limited that's why life is beautiful.
I totally agree with his view of life.

Leaves in the fog

It started to get chilly on rainy Sunday.
It wasn't good to enjoy colorful leaves in the mountain.
It was foggy but fantastic view of of the mountain.



There were pink flowers or leaves like hydrangea. Does anyone know?

Finding Nemo

There were lots of big carps and small fish larvae in the river stream.

The flock of fish were swimming in the shallow water and they were easy to be caught by the camera.

But I didn't intend to catch them by hands.



I wonder if they would stay in the mother stream for a while and prepare for the next trip to the ocean.

Good morning sunshine

It's really a beautiful day today.
No cloud in the sky, only blue in my view just now.
But you know autumn weather is changeable like cats eyes!
Enjoy the fresh virgin air and the
lovely sunshine for now.



Some clouds were there yesterday at this time.

Climate change

Climate change is shrinking many plant and animal species and is likely to have a negative impact on human nutrition in the future, according to a new study.

Rising temperatures and growing variability in rainfall are affecting the size of all species in the ecosystem from microscopic sea organisms to land-based predators, say researchers.

But shrinking trends in the ecosystem are likely to impact heavily on humans, say the authors.
Global warming will cause Eco system

Daybreak

It's slowly getting late of day breaking time.
Though the daybreak was 6:01am this morning, according to the meteorological observatory,it was still dim dark outside at 6:30am.
I feel like the Sun is going far away from us but time to preserve energy and keep warm by ourselves.
Electric energy is so short that we need to make ourselves wise not to waste energy.
Hot drink or some tea with ginger cause you warm inside.
Stretching your body, legs, fingers and taking deep breath for a few minutes effect warm on your body. That will be effective for less heat energy.
Let's get the Sun in your heart.

iOS5 into iPhone3GS

iOS5 was released October 12, 3days ago. I didn't install it into my iPhone because I was worried about it might cause problems in the iPhone3GS which was old model before iPhone4.
I still don't make up my mind to purchase the iPhone4S.

So I finally decided to install iOS5 into my iPhone3GS.
It was very successful to sync with Mac OS10 and was iPad, too.
I will use the old phone so far...until the new phone will appear in the shop.
I'm still wondering which career I should choose. I will refer to reports which will be told about users' review.
It will not be long before my getting a new phone.

No one is special but you are the special for yourself.

Things are getting old including living things, human being and other creatures in the world.
The old goes to die instead of the new but the new will also get old later soon as Steve Jobs told in his speech.
He said that death is one of the most important creature from life.
He was sure his dying; that's why he raced with time and warned to young people not to waste time coz life time is limited.
His life was perfect which ended perfectly!
It was not because of his genius,a man of fame or celebrity....but for himself is only the special.

I've met a death of an old woman in my neighbor. She was 90 years old.
One of her family member told about her she lived to die peacefully and painlessly. She died as if she were sleeping soundly.
She has three children, 5 grand children and 7 great grand children.
Though she was not famous, not a genius but an ordinary woman, wife and mother. But death comes equally to us all.
I think no one is special in the life and the death....
I think my life is special for myself.

You can't live for others nor change with others life.
I'm convinced that a good life will have a good death(^-^)/

Jerry needs no help playing with his ball.

It's really a cool invention and full of love for his pet dog.
I find it similar action as my dog when she plays with balls which I throw.
The dog Jerry is smart enough to set the ball in the machine!
It will not happen to my dog coz she can't play by herself.
She always hates to be left alone at home.

The third story about ' death ' (5)

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960's, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.

Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish." It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

Thank you all very much.

Apologize to those who failed to post comments

I'm very sorry to hear from some people couldn't post any comments or can't send comment though used to post them before…
Now I'm searching on the web about the problems on Blogger, such problems are so often in the world. It says that Windows Explore and Google Chrome are mismatching and make problems.
I hope those troubles will be solved as soon as possible. Please not to give up posting comments any way!

It's the forum about failure of posting.  Thank you!

The third story about ' death ' (4)

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

The third story about ' death ' (3)

I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.

This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:




The third story about ' death ' (2)

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.

The third story about ' death ' 1

The final story of the speech has many important points for better life. I can't shortcut the lines.
So I will give them divided and upload a few series by my heart.

My third story is about death.⑴

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

The second story about ' love and loss '

The second story was what he got when he was 20 years old, started company and lost when 30 years, he got fired from the company of his own.
But he never gave up and still in love what he had done.
After he was free from Apple, he started over and entered one of the most creative periods of his life.
It brought Apple current renaissance after he came back to Apple.

The second story " love and loss "

I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.

The first story about ' connecting the dots '

I'd like to review of the greatest story of Steve Jobs which he gave a speech at Stanford University in 2005 when he was 50 years old.
I miss his life but feel his energetic spirit alive in here.

Tribute of Steven Jobs speech from story one
" connecting the dots "

If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

Take a good trip!

Dear Steve Jobs
Thank you for your great work but tough to say good-bye to you Mr.Jobs.
I'm very pleased to have been with you and got a lot of pleasure from you.
Your amazing ability and outstanding presentation made me very into the imaginary world on the web and took me to the entrance of the iCloud.
I hope you always navigate us to the next trip to the wonderland.
I'm sure you are brave and cheerful into the mysterious world. You are always in my mind. Until then!

You've got to find what you love

at the seashore

I drove along the seaside late afternoon yesterday.
It was a clear fine day.
I took some pictures there.
They are below....
Seeing the view over the horizon, hearing the sound of rough waves in the wind and walking along the beach side with the long shadow of mine.

Not knowing the name of this flower, I searched and asked some people but I still don't find its name.
I wonder it is something to relate with narcissus or not....though the petal is somehow different from narcissus.

Autumn flower2

Walking and finding pretty flowers on the roadside or in the small space of someone's garden, is my pleasure these days.
You know pink or red such as warm color makes our eyes bright and happy. But blue or purple color gives us coolish and sharp to our sense.
I'm also charmed with the blue purple color of these flowers.
One is clematis and the other one is not knowing of the name but familiar to them.
Does anyone know the name of the plant?

Autumn flower 1

I enjoy finding flowers on walking with my dog.
It's a lovely season to take a walk longer than usual.
Before the sun heat and leaves are dying for the winter, tiny little autumn flowers appear elegantly on the roadside.
It really makes me feel lovely and warm.
I'll show you the photo of the flowers one by one I took in my iPhone.
Today is white spider lily and water lily.

October

It starts October today.
Chinese character describes it 'Gods' month'.
They say that Gods from all Japan gather and have meeting in Izumo shrine in October.
During God absence in the local city, sub God keeps for the absence. There used to be festital in each shrine.

It was an autumnal beautiful day.
I ate out Echizen soba for lunch.
Soba with soup (soba tsuyu), and grated radish as topping.
It was very light and healthy Japanese noodle.
I love it very much.
