Shikata Ganai - It Cant Be Helped

Welcome to Shikata Ganai - August 6, 1945. In order to conclude the Second World War, the United States launched the first atomic bomb at the main industrial military center in Hiroshima. The temperature is higher than the surface of the sun. The light is shining. The air is dense and heavy with envelope radiation. John Hershey talks about six people who survived the first nuclear explosion in Hiroshima. Hiroshima first explained the situation of the six people who changed history before the explosion.

The expression "no shit" or "can not" is commonly used in the media of Japan and the US to limit the resignation of Japanese Americans to the harsh circumstances in the profession. However, not everyone responds in the same way to the hardships after the war. Some people succumb to difficulties, but there are still more flexible people. As the country regains its foundation, they can also rebound. It has been claimed that women 's empowerment has played an important role in fundamental transformation from Japan' s war country to democratized countries and demilitarized countries. In the first post-war election in 1946, more than one-third of the votes were voted by women. An unexpectedly high female voter votes for 39 women candidates to be elected, an increasing number of women are participating in politics, and Americans are seeing evidence of improvement in the status of women in Japan.

Criticism about nothing. Critics believe that this is a satisfying attitude and that the breeding citizens are passive, but are merely suitable for authority. In my opinion, it is very close to many Buddhist teachings that hinder attachment. Like Buddhism, Shikatagani encourages people to be angry, to abandon affection for jealousy, hatred, and other negative emotions, but accepts uncontrollable reality. This was one of the criticisms of my religion when I first began participating in Buddhist worship in a small temple in Sevastopol's rural village in California. I saw everyone passive too. How about politics? How can they not participate in the fight against injustice? I can not let go. Of course, rather than chanting and meditation, there are more important things all over the world.

My first "ineffective" experience was to listen to what my father - in - law said. In the five years I knew him, he was always so calm and sullen. I have never seen him angry. Even my husband needs to whip the tongue occasionally at least once. All the stories I've heard about my father - in - law are that he is Mr. Spock of the Japanese version. I visited Japan for the first time on December 27, 2016, only eight months after my husband 's accidental death, and gave me a widow with three children. Even if suffering from my new reality trauma, I suffer from the feeling that I live in a world that is still understood to be cruel and unfair. On the first night in Tokyo where I was shocked by the magnitude 9 earthquake, I just fell asleep on the 15th floor of Shinagawa Hotel.
