The Spider’s Thread Background I recalled one story “The Spider’s Thread” by Ryūnosuke Akutagawa. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spider's_Thread This story tells us about to save only his/herself is bad things. My idea This story can apply everything in our minds. Developed countries have/had tried to save only own countries. Developed countries provided fake help to developing countries for maintaining advanced position. In 21st century, the way is no use. Now, Global South appears.
2020/1/26. The Gaps in Japan I watched the gaps between upper class Japanese and working class Japanese. When I was riding on metro train, there were 2 women. One woman was reading a book which was covered with bookstores’ paper. Another woman was reading a book which was labeled with public library’s symbol. Former had the bag which seemed to be highly expensive.(I don’t know the brand name.) Latter had the cheaply bag and she was wearing blue jeans. I think many Japanese people realize this gaps, but they don’t say such things. There are so many gaps between upper class and working class. And the gaps are all around us.
