Multilingual Web’s version of an international exchange paper for the new generation, “SENSEUP,” created by the joint cooperation of Japanese and overseas students!

One of triggers to get out of this “Hikikomori” situation is to verbalise your feelings and being brave. You can also find more information about Hikikomori through the internet. You will realise the peacefulness and importance of people’s presence who can listen to your problems sincerely by exchanging words in some small way. It will also make you objectively see your feelings from the outside. When you want to get out of terrible situation or at least you want others to understand your feelings inside, please verbalise what you think as a start. Talk to somebody, leave a small note or you can even use the internet. I believe that this is the first step for you to get out of your old habit and explore the outside world.

Kiyoko Nagase was born in the city of Kumayama-Cho in Okayama-Ken, in the Meiji era of 1906. She is a poet who had been writing poems on “Chabudai”, (Japanese style low dining table, it is not a study desk or anything) right until she died at the age of 89. Even during the wartime period, when it was difficult for women to have free speech, she never rested her hands. She was a wife, a mother who raised kids, a farmer who worked hard and a poet who did not stop writing poems. Her vitality strongly moved my heart and her poem is still an emotional crutch for me today. It is our job to protect these beautiful words as a newscaster, who must be a professional of words. I keep a journal everyday to step up to Mrs. Nagase. I have been writing in my journal since I was thirteen and I have more than 160 notebooks.
