  Do you like soccer? I like soccer very much!

  I believe that soccer can make all the world happy.

 Wourld cup held every four years.  People in the wourld got widly excited and noticed each time.  I am very happy because I feel the soccer game is united with all the wourld.  How do you think this thing?  If your mind is same me, I ‘m very happy.

  But the other hand, would cup is called a “microcosm of war”.  Did you know?  When I hard it, I was surprised, but a positive fact.  If world cup is microcosm of war, it is good.  Because real war don’t take up arms.  So we should cheer with our full strength.  If you do that, we will can make happy and enjoy!

 Do you believe in power of the music? I believe music can cure illness.

 Resently, many hospitals and therapists are using music therapy to help sick people. The famous Greek mathematician, Pythagoras said, “music can heal the disorder of a perosn’s spirit.” I think this is true.

   For example, have you heard of the ‘Mozart effect’? The music of Mozart is effective because it includes high frequency which helps a living body functions. In particular, it has frequencies more than 3,500Hz. This helps the brain classical music is an effective musical therapy.

 Also music therapy helps autism. Moreover, it extends cancer patient’s life and helps sleeplessness. Finally, I think that music is important because I can relax when I listen to music. And it is comfortable. I hope sick people recovers with it.

 This is why I believe in the power of music.

I think it is important in our life to smile. And it make one’s presence felt. I want to talk about my experience.

 First of all, I  practice rugby every day. Sometimes, i feel down to do hard training.  For example, when i run for long time. It is very hard for me. Because i am not good at running a long distance. But, it is no use feeling down forever. So when  i  have a trying time, i try to smile. Because, i think i can overcome  a hard time and cheer everyone up. if  you felt down, i want you to smile. Besides,  if my friends were to be in a feeling down, i would like to amuse them with joke. Maybe, They will laugh at me impression. I think we sometimes need to joke in our daily life. It is also important.

 Thirdly, my friends told me that  when they met me at first, i seemed to have a severe look. From then that day on, i try to smile. In order not to give a bad impression, you are careful, too.

I think to smile greatly enlivens our lives.

The power of believing in dream

    Do you have a dream? I think everybody had a dream sometime. But some could not make their dream come true and some could make them come true. That is who believe in dream absolutely. If one believes in dream, his dream will give him the energy to get his goal.

 

     Believing in dream is knowing the dream well too. Many people out there are pursuing someone else’s dream and they do not even realize it. If you want to make your dreams come true, you must first have an extremely accurate and definite idea of what your dream is.

    There is a saying “Nothing happens unless first we dream”. Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe in dream.

I believe possibility in my self, Do you? the topic I want to talk about is my aspiration of the future. Since i was young, I did not now for sure what i wanted to become in the future. I thought to my self,”What kind of occupation would make me happy?” I thought long and hard for a job.

I believed find something that I am interested in and skilled at to be content. Idid`nt know at all what my interest were or what I was skilled at.

However, as time passed I slowly became to know what my aspiration was to be. This is because I became to know more and more,what my interests were and what I was good at. Finally,I thought I would become a manager of business. I wondered if I could be good at konwing management or administration.

When I graduate from at a university,I worry if i will be able to realise what i really want to become. Also,to realise my dream I am trying hard and the moment I decided to take up this occupation,I am slowly learning more and more about business managemant in japan. Although I don`t know much about this occupation and I find it difficult at times,if I take to it with an interest, it becomes easier and I believe I can succeed at it.

Do you think the world is truly peaceful? Do you think compassion is connected with peace ?

For example, now there is no fight in Japan but the fight is going on in many countries of the world. What a pity that the fight is going on. And everyday I hear bad news related to the fight. 

 Fyodor Dostoevesky, a Russian witer, said “Compassion is the most essential and probably life law of all humankind”. This teaches us the importance of compassion. Everyone should think about this word’s meaning.

 So I want many people to adopt a compassion. And it may be that the global context get better than present. I believe that compassion is very important. If there is no compassion, then war will spread across the world.

I believe in cooperation.

Because When I was high school student, I played hand ball.

Hand ball need to 7 people.But my team had only 7 people. So If  somebody hurt leg or hand, The number of people was not enough.Besides, My team was very weak and there was not a coach.

We rehearsed for 7 hours every day. By the way, We had quarrel and cry many time, my team became a close-knit team.

I understand that cooperation is so important.

When we retired hand ball team, We could to win once.

I was so glad.

Action!!

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

Do you always act when there is a good opportunity? Have you ever lost an opportunity caused by your indecision? In daily life, I think there are many good opportunities. However I often missed them and felt regret. So, I believe making an action is important to me.

I want to talk about my experience. I went to New Zealand when I was in a high school. When I was in a junior high school, I decided to study abroad, because I wanted to be a good English speaker. However, studying abroad costs money so I couldn’t decide whether to study abroad or not. When I was thinking, my mom and dad told me that there is no more opportunity that I can go to another country and study English so I should go even if it costs a lot of money. Then I decided to go with their help. In fact, there was another chance to study abroad after I entered this college, but I didn’t go because there was no time to do it. So the decision which I made in junior high school to study abroad was correct.

Carolyn Wells said “Actions lie louder than words”. Nowadays, we say “Actions speak louder than words”. I think it is easy to say “I want to do this thing.” but if you don’t make an effort, the good opportunity is lost. So when it comes, we must grasp it.

We need kindness!!

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

  “Kindness“ is the quality or state of being kind. Do you believe in kindness? Of course I believe in it. I believe kindness makes happiness, love, and peace, so we need kindness.

   I have a memory about kindness that I can’t forget. When I was afive-year old girl, I got lost in a shopping center. I was very sad and cried. Then a woman came to me and said “what happened? Are you lost?” and she took me to an information center and waited for my mother together with me. I don’t know her name, but I’ll never forget her. I want to repay her kindness someday.

   Kindness is hiding in your everyday. For example, please imagine your school life. If you forget a pencil, your friend will lend one to you. If you have many things, a person will open a door. If you are sleeping in study time, a teacher will wake you up, There are also kindness. When I get kindness from someone, I’m happy and I’d like to give kindness. I think kindness has love.

  This idea is like Karma. The cycle when I give you a kindness and you give me a kindness is Buddhist belief. It is an important part of some religions such like Hinduism and Buddhism.

  If we don’t have kindness, we will be a danger and the world can’t be peaceful. Kindness is very important for the peaceful world. I ask you again. Do you believe in kindness?
