麺をすするのは食べ方のひとつなだけであって音出してすすることがマナーなわけではないと思うのだが

I believe slurping noodles is simply one way to eat them more easily, but that doesn't necessarily mean making slurping noise is considered polite or a sign of cultural respect

Japanese people’s sense of “ethics” is basically all about not causing trouble to those around them. That’s not necessarily a bad thing—but calling it a “high level of civility” feels misleading. In fact, it often seems like their awareness stops at a two-meter radius around themselves. For example, they’re extremely sensitive to things like not being noisy on trains or not littering in public—actions that cause immediate inconvenience to others.

However, when it comes to more macro-level issues—like creating fair social systems or tackling environmental problems—their interest drops off sharply. They feel little to no responsibility for anything beyond what they can directly see or affect.

Take the issues of aging population, declining birthrates, or climate change. There’s a deeply rooted atmosphere of “someone else will deal with it.” Very few people are willing to become that “someone.” Instead, they focus on doing what’s right in front of them, with little regard for the underlying systems or the long-term future. And that, in itself, is one of the limits of Japanese society.

So in the end, while people may be good at maintaining immediate order, most have no real interest in the long-term sustainability of society or what Japan will look like a hundred years from now. As a result, problems that aren’t yet visible keep growing under the surface. The so-called “high civility” of the Japanese isn’t especially exceptional by global standards—it’s simply a way of preserving peace in the here and now.

あめぴー🌈

あめぴー🌈

The sunset reflected in the flowers blooming by the roadside, and the space between the interrupted clouds—between day and night.
The star begins to peek out, softly and gently illuminating the night sky.
Right at the very center, back-to-back, are "happiness" and "unhappiness."
Feelings so close that I almost want to touch the profile hesitating between leaning toward either side.

Humans who act to find their own happiness,
and humans who move to fulfill someone else's happiness—these are the two types.
Neither is better than the other; as long as you have no regrets about your choice, that’s enough.

When simply contemplating "what is happiness,"
the answer emerges that it is born from the passage of time and the accumulation of experience, leading to change.

Even when layering emotional changes over the shifting seasons,
it doesn't necessarily make us particularly kinder.
What others think or feel remains beyond our imagination.
Having the same thoughts or values is fundamentally unlikely, but
through consideration and understanding of others, it’s possible to share them.

Those who proceed while confirming whether their initial choice was correct,
and those who eliminate impossible answers and accept what remains as correct—
since the foundations and directions of the world are so different,
they truly realize how wonderful it is to "be together."
