★It's better to write a letter★

At end of last year, did you write a New Year’s Card? Did you receive it from someone? According to the Japan Postal Service Public Corporation, the number of the issue of New Year’s Card has been getting down in recent years. Actually in 2007, the number of card that was sold was 3 billion and 799 million and 780 thousands. This was 7 percent down more than previous year’s. Spreading mobile phone made people lazy because it’s easy for them to greet by sending E-mail. But I think writing politely by themselves is Japanese culture. Therefore people shouldn’t be tired of writing.

The first reason, writing letter is so important for Japanese because it’s Japanese culture and tradition from long time ago. Although today most of people always use pencil everyday, some of them write New Year’s Card by a writing brush from choice then. It’s necessary not only to send message, but also to take process. To spare a lot of time for writing is the wonderful action and process we have to do as Japanese.

The second reason, writing by ourselves can convey our feeling to someone because form of letter is a little bit different form each other. As the saying goes, the difference of letter is the difference of heart. Although we has particular feeling, our letter are absolutely same each other if we use mobile phone. That’s so sad, isn’t it? Especially scripts have the big power to convey heart. We shouldn’t forget that.

However, some people say sending E-mail is more colorful and attractive than writing. Actually, that’s true because today’s mobile phone have a function to decorate mail. But we have duty as Japanese to buy a card, write a message, go to the post, and send a card with our whole heart.

In short, we mustn’t forget to have nice Japanese heart. Letter is a postman that takes our heart to someone. In next time, please write a New Year’s Card for a person who is all you need.

NEW YEAR was already coming>3<"

Finally, I 'm very sorry~/3\; I haven't met you in this blog for a long time!!
New Year was already coming, we met you in class, & I said to you "A Happy New Year". But please let me say again, "Hello, A Happy New Year!! Please good along with me this year" As I said before, on New year's Eve, I went to temple near my house, & I tolled a temple bell toll at night. But although I wanted to toll the bell on 108 time, I couldn't this time. What's happen for me!!? ... ...
I was a little bit late for the time more than annual. So, daddy stood in line on 107 time, but I was 109 time. Bell shouldn't be tolled only 108 times. → " I ca~n't!!" >▲<;　
I was obliged to change my turn from daddy. I tolled the bell on 107 time...
I couldn't do an annual thing I've done before. In 2010, I can't imagin what would happen If I'll be off my guard... That's horrible~.~
