I don’t know how to process this one. Guns and assassinations in Japan don’t compute. I made my Japanese heritage a safe space, as silly as that seems. My experiences there all so lovely, peaceful and polite. This news makes me so sad. I know they’re there, but I just can’t bring myself to go down those rabbit holes yet.
This feels very strange without having Japanese heritage. As soon as I heard about it last night, it seemed really weird. There is little doubt that we will continue witnessing weirdness in this very weird time. I am finding that in people's behaviour regularly now. On the other hand, I continue to find kindness unexpectedly regularly, too, and others wanting to connect as much as I do. Heads up, everybody, for the weirdness and the kindness...
I'Isn't Nara maintained as a traditionally important place, both for the benefit to Japanese culture, and for that to those who come from abroad to visit Japan ?
