夏の終わり・・・at the end of summer

毎年この時期になると石垣島には少しの乾いた北風が吹き始め、長くこの島に住むわたしは秋の気配や寒くなる冬の訪れを俄かに感じる。

１番の観光シーズンの夏を無事に終えて、ほっと少し気が緩むのと同時に諸々の反省と来シーズンへの課題や準備を始める。

牛歩だけど少しずつ少しずつ理想的な自分とライフスタイルの目標に向けて、また一度態勢を立て直し軌道修正^ ^

At the end of summer, as this time of year comes around every year, a slightly dry northern wind begins to blow on Ishigaki Island, and I, who have lived on this island for a long time, can’t help but feel the approach of autumn and the onset of colder winter.

After safely completing the peak tourist season of summer, I breathe a sigh of relief and, at the same time, begin to reflect on various matters and start preparations and tasks for the upcoming season.

It’s a slow process, but little by little, I’m working towards my ideal self and lifestyle goals, making adjustments and corrections as needed. ^ ^

夏天结束时，每年都会到来这个时候，石垣岛上开始吹起了略带干燥的北风，我作为长期居住在这个岛上的人，不禁感受到秋天的来临和寒冷的冬天即将到来。

在顺利度过了夏季的高峰旅游季节之后，我松了一口气，同时开始反思各种事情，并着手准备和解决即将到来的季节的任务。

虽然进展缓慢，但我正在逐渐朝着理想的自我和生活方式目标努力，根据需要进行调整和修正。^ ^

万事、気楽に身軽に♪

「Life is like a road trip. Enjoy each day, and don’t carry too much baggage…」


「人生は道中の旅のよう。毎日を楽しんで、あまりに多くの荷物を持たないようにすると何と気持ちも身体も軽やかな事か。」

「生活就像一次公路旅行。享受每一天，不要背负太多行囊。」

こんなタイトルのブログを書いたのは、72歳になる母が先月突如「富士山頂に登る」といい一か月程でギアを揃えて先日見事登頂した事と、偶然にもその日90歳になりながらも尚、有名な冒険家の三浦雄一郎氏が母の10分程前に登頂を開始していたからという事もあり石垣島の情報発信でありながら「いくつになっても人生を楽しむ」事や「物も気持ちも常に軽やかに人生を楽しむ姿勢」の大切さを知り、それに敬意を示してここにアップしました。

The title of this blog is about my 72-year-old mother who, last month, suddenly decided to climb to the summit of Mount Fuji. She gathered her gear in about a month and successfully reached the summit recently.

三浦雄一郎さんについては台湾で日本語教師をしていた時に彼の特集を題材にして2週間ほど台湾の日本語学習者に授業をした事もあってなんとも感慨深かった。年齢に関係なく人生を楽しむ姿勢の先輩達に敬意を

It’s also because on that same day, the renowned adventurer Yuichiro Miura, who is still active at the age of 90, had started his ascent just a few minutes before my mother. This blog, while sharing information about Ishigaki Island, emphasizes the importance of “enjoying life at any age” and the attitude of “keeping both possessions and feelings light to enjoy life.” I post this here as a sign of respect for these principles.

「花鳥風月」

The blooming “flowers” praise the seasons, The perched “birds” speak few words, Existing in accordance with the blowing “wind,” The “moon” fills the endless sky.

盛开的“花”赞美季节， 栖息的“鸟”少言寡语， 顺风而行的“风”为伴， 满月下的无尽天空。

咲く「花」は季節を讃え
立つ「鳥」は言葉少なに
「風」の吹くまま有りの隨
「月」満つる見果てぬ空よ

Now or never

Golden Week （Period of consecutive national holidays in May.）has safely come to an end, and the Covid19has finally reached Level Five here in Japan,it is bringing me a sense of relief.

I am delighted to see many foreign tourists returning to Ishigaki Island. At the same time, I have been reflecting on the various memories and hardships of the past three years.

While expressing gratitude for the opportunity to work in a job I love, I am eagerly looking forward to the Okinawa tourism during the high season. I can’t wait to assist new customers and contribute to creating unforgettable memories on Ishigaki Island once again.
