"Usual Days" by Riki Nozawa (Link)
Author's Note:
This is a poem about usual days. I'm always amazed by the passing speed of usual days. I think one of the reason that swiftness of usual days is lack of special events or experiences. I expressed my astonishment by this poem.

I can related to this sentiment of how usual days speed by without thinking.
ReplyDeleteIt is so true.
It made me think how I can provide education that has no "usual days" or classes.
I think those usual days pass fast, but unusual days pass more faster.
ReplyDeleteIf you are boring for your usual days, you will be able to find "unusual" days with looking around you- for example, visiting Taizanso surrounded by nature, diving into another society, and anything you can.
However, what you should care of is the possibility to be tired for it!
