I have encountered wild birds at the Kyoto Imperial Palace, Daikakuji Temple, Kyoto Prefectural Botanical Garden, Maruyama Park, and other places. I was surprised that I managed to capture a Japanese bush warbler , a difficult bird to photograph. Whenever I whistle the sound of a nightingale, the Japanese bush warbler always comes over. That is how good my whistling imitation of the Japanese bush warbler's song is.
The following is from Haruko Arimura (member of the House of Councillors, national proportional representation) posted on X. The LDP is full of actual politicians and patriots like Ms. Haruko Arimura. Still, the two who continue to slander and denigrate the LDP while earning vast amounts of money from their fake YouTube shows are the dictatorial party of two people with standard deviations of 38 and 50, who continue to expose to the world their true nature as "liars and greed." We must hammer down on these two and those who call themselves political parties.
Haruko Arimura (member of the House of Councillors, national proportional representation) @Arimura_haruko Even though it's the end of the year and the LDP Foreign Affairs Committee and other meetings are not held, I've been really annoyed these past few days. ■Japanese employees of Astellas Pharma continue to be detained, ■China continues to violate international law by arbitrarily installing buoys in our exclusive economic zone, ■Our airspace was violated for the first time by a Chinese military aircraft this summer, ■An innocent Japanese schoolchild was killed in Shenzhen without explanation for the incident, ■Japanese seafood products continue to be embargoed despite no scientific evidence, so how can we create a new 10-year visa for China? China continues to advance into the ocean in violation of the international order, blatantly attempts to interfere in Japan's domestic elections, does not allow its diplomats to change their disrespectful attitude that threatens the Japanese people, and detains and does not release Japanese citizens for long periods of time. What is the necessity for such a conciliatory attitude towards China? I am seriously concerned that this will send the wrong message to China: "The more authoritarian we are toward Japan, the more conciliatory Japan will be toward China..." Has there ever been a case where Japan adopted a conciliatory attitude toward China and was not afraid to commit outrageous acts that served the national interest? What exactly is the "greater national interest" that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is trying to achieve, even at the risk of losing unanimous public support? I must open my eyes wide and ask whether I can receive a satisfactory answer. I want the LDP Foreign Affairs Committee to be convened as soon as possible, and I would like to have the opportunity to ask questions in the Diet.
The "10-year visa for Chinese" diplomatic blunder causes a massive outrage; tourism pollution and security risks increase; pro-China behavior goes out of control, "no prior groundwork done," and don't forget pending issues such as the detention of Japanese citizens
Natsuho Murata : 20th Kloster Schöntal Int'l Violin Competition /DAY2 (AG2, 1st round) on 24/08/2024
In May 2011, the doctor in charge at Nakatsu Saiseikai Hospital told me that I had a 25% chance of survival. The doctor called the few people around me at the time to the hospital to tell them the news. One of them was in tears. God gifted me with a mind that could be called genius, and from a very young age, I have defined myself as "an infinite thinker who wants to live forever." I have also told my close friends about this. Even now, I am not prepared for death. Even so, this was especially true up until May 2011. At first, the doctor in charge diagnosed me with "mild pneumonia, and pneumonia heals faster if you are hospitalized." I had never been hospitalized since I was old enough to understand...in other words, I had never had a serious illness and was perfectly healthy, so I didn't think being hospitalized was so bad, and in fact, I felt like it would be fun. So I went back to my office near the hospital and told the managing director, "I'll be hospitalized from tomorrow." After a while, the phone on my desk rang. The doctor was in charge, and the moment I heard his voice, a chill ran down my spine. "Just tell me the name of the disease." As soon as I heard the name of the disease, I immediately prepared myself to "die." Until then, I hadn't been prepared at all...I was still single, after all...I was, so to speak, afraid of "death." I thought, "I'm not prepared yet, so please don't come." I was surprised at how I was able to "prepare" instantly. The next day, I was hospitalized. I was first ordered to do a checkup at the hospital's dental clinic. If a tooth is damaged, the first side effects will appear when treatment begins, and they will interfere with your diet. It was to avoid that. They told me that they didn't sense any anxiety or fear from me. "They are impressed..." The day before, I had made up my mind in an instant, but I was also 100% sure of my recovery. At that time, I couldn't die. It's because I hadn't yet demonstrated the brain that God had given me. Since I could do nothing, I had no choice but to leave it to the doctor. I asked the doctor in charge, "Are you confident in your skills?" As expected, he answered without a shadow of a doubt, "Yes." Omitted. On December 16, 2011, I was fully recovered and discharged after eight months of hospitalization. Omitted The following year, I spent 300 days out of the 365 days of the year photographing the flowers, birds, wind, and moon at the Kyoto Prefectural Botanical Gardens. I'm sure that in that year, a book by a world-renowned botanist, "Plants See," was featured in the book review section of a newspaper. I immediately understood. This is because when I got home and downloaded my photos to my computer, many of them could not be explained unless I thought of the plants as watching and talking to me. Omitted When Takashi Murakami titled his exhibition at the Kyocera (Kyoto Municipal) Museum of Art in Okazaki this year, "Monster Kyoto," I immediately realized that he knew the essence of Kyoto. After all, my photos are full of monsters. Omitted Every year in May, I go to the rose garden in the Kyoto Botanical Gardens to take photos. I sometimes visit the garden as many as 10 times during the season. That's how fascinated I am by roses...I love the scent of rose flowers. For me, the scent of wisteria and rose flowers is the best. I noticed a wonderful rose garden near my house in Osaka a few years ago. Since then, I have visited the garden twice a year, in spring and autumn, every year without fail. In October 2023, I noticed the beauty of the evenings in particular. Omitted I started taking photos on October 22. I also took photos on October 24...as I mentioned earlier. On October 26, I was surprised when I was reviewing the photos from that day. They were so different from the first draft. I was amazed by all the photos. It was the third time since I started taking photos. All the roses were looking at me. My best friend once told me that I was taking photos of wild birds as if I was possessed. It's tough to take photos of wild birds. However, wherever I went in Kyoto, the wild birds started to approach me. When I went to Heian Shrine to take photos of weeping cherry blossoms, I was so engrossed in pictures of a group of wild birds that suddenly appeared that I forgot about the cherry blossoms. I was so engrossed in taking photos that I was pointing my camera in the opposite direction to everyone else, in the direction the wild birds were coming from. At the botanical garden, Bramblings appeared right in front of my eyes. A woman taking pictures nearby said, "I've never seen anything like this before," and continued to take photos. According to a book, wild birds are attracted to pheromones that love wild birds. After all, I've been giving off an extraordinary aura since I was young. The lady at a long-established coffee shop along the Kamo River in Kyoto told me, "All kinds of people come to our shop, but I've never seen anyone who gives off an aura like yours. You should go in that direction." Omitted I was amazed by the roses on 10/26. There was not a single blemish. The life of the rose, the rose spirit, responded to this genius who loves roses more than anything. It was the third time that they discovered me. It is no exaggeration to say that this photo book is my masterpiece of roses. At first, I will present it to readers worldwide as a photo book without music. This photo book will indeed speak to a wide variety of emotions. This photo book will bring profound healing to lonely people and great joy to happy people.
