2010年小正月も過ぎて it passed the 15th day of the 1st lunar month is the Chinese Lantern Festival

長いタイトルになったな。。。小正月がランタンフェスティバルとは。そういえば去年そんなことを長崎出張前に話が出ていた記憶があるな。(僕はその出張に行かなかったけど) あ,何はともあれ あけましておめでとうございます。
 元旦は例年通りで、近所の氏神様の神社に初詣。でも今年はとても寒く天気もあまりよくなかったので、橿原神宮へは2日に初詣となった。午前の早い時間のせいか不況のせいか、混雑はしていなかったなぁ。道行く車も途中で見かけた家々もほとんど注連縄が見られなかったのにはちょっと驚いた。まあ車はともかく,家にもないのには。。。妻の「どこも喪中ですかっ」には苦笑い。人通りも極端になく、子供の声も聞こえず。。。家の中だけ正月を過ごしている感じ。政治もおかしいが,日本の風物も慣習もあまり実践されなくなって,何か違う方向に変わってきているかのようです。何処ぞの新聞に載っていた年賀状の要不要論は,不要の立場の意見が,虚礼廃止効率化って.語っている方が若い人ならともかく僕以上の年齢の方があれじゃあ。若者に迎合しているわけじゃないにしても,同年以上でも都会的で風物を楽しめない人が増えてきているのかな。礼節も敬語も不要になりそうな勢いでしたね。あの文調は。
 今年はもう4日から仕事始めだから,あまり正月気分も続かないまま1月も中旬になりました。不況感は変わらないかな。年明け早々の連休は中日に勝山まで日帰りスキー。良い天気と新雪の近年に無い素晴らしいコンディションで,十分に堪能。いまだに軽く筋肉痛も残ってます。そのスキーの翌日は娘の成人式。感慨深い物がありますね。その上,着物はいいね。
 さてそうこうしているうちに,世間じゃハイチの大地震(日本の動きが遅いっ),日航の法的整理(倒産だよね。上場やめるから株も紙くず),議員や秘書の逮捕。本当にひどいもんです。一方,目の前の大事からか,2000年から3000年までのうち最長時間の金環食も日本で見えなければニュースにも取り上げられていないのかな。(もしかして見過ごした?)インドの方から教えてもらいました。写真も頂いた。昨年の皆既日食に今回の金環食。どれもなかなか見る機会に恵まれないな。
 さあて,今年は何かと忙しそうだし,まだ東京から戻って9ヶ月も経っていない。先行きあまり予想を立てていないが,とんでもなさそうな一年になるかな。さて乞うご期待だ。



Ah it became a long title...It did not know that a small New Year day was called a lantern festival. Incidently, it has the memory of having talked about such a thing before it makes a business trip of Nagasaki last year. (though I did not go for the business trip. )ah... A Happy new year.
It lived in the New Year's visit to a shrine as usual in the Shinto shrine of the patron saint in the vicinity on the New Year's Day. However, it came to visit a shrine on New Year's Day to Kashihara Jingu Shrine on the second because it was very cold and the weather was not too good either this year. It did not crowd probably because of the recession probably because of early time in the morning where either. The road was surprised for a moment so that "Special plaited rope" had been hardly seen as for houses that the car that took it also had seen on the way. Probably in the house apart from the car either. ...My wife said "Where is the period of mourning?" I had a wry smile. Traffic is extremely little, and I do not hear child's voice....It is feeling that you are spending the New Year only in the house. Neither things in Japan nor the custom seem to be practiced so much, and to make it to something different direction though the politics of Japan today is also amusing. The empty formalities abolition efficiency improvement the opinion in an unnecessary standpoint : the unnecessary theory to a certain newspaper about the recorded New Year's card. If talking was a young person, I was surprised because the age more than me did that at any rate. Have the number of those who cannot enjoy things in the city more than the same year increased because it even doesn't temporize to the young person? their sentences were written by power that propriety and the honorific seemed to become unnecessary.
The middle of came without feelings continuing so much at the New Year either in January because this year was already a work start on the fourth. The recession feeling doesn't change. Even "Katsuyama" went to the day trip skiing only on the first on consecutive holidays the new year opening. It was a wonderful condition that recently, not was because of fine and a new snow. We were satisfied enough. I remain still lightly muscular pain. The daughter received Coming of Age ceremony the next day of the skiing. There is a thing with deep deep emotion. Moreover, her kimono appearance is good.
The large earthquake of Haiti (The action of Japaese government was slow!)was occuered and The legal liquidation of "Japan Air Lines" (It is a bankruptcy. The stock is wastepaper because it stops listing) and the assembly member and secretaries arrest it at the people so in the meantime well. It is done that it is really awful massaging it. On the other hand, annular eclipse of the sun while it is the longest within from importance in the presence or 2000 to 3000 is not seen in Japan, and it is not taken up in news. (Did I overlook the article?)I was taught by a person in India. I got the photograph from her. It is this annular eclipse of the sun in last year's total solar eclipse. Any I am easily rich at the chance to see.
As for, it seems to be variously busy, and as many as nine months have not passed since it still returns from Tokyo this year. Do it become unexpected one year though it takes ahead and it doesn't produce a forecast so much ? Well, Please expect it.
