困難を克服し、チャンス到来時にはパッと咲く

　今朝、玄関前でバッと咲きました。この花はアマリリスです。冬の間、室内の温かな廊下で過ごした甲斐あっての開花です。近くでもう一つの蕾もスタンバイしてるので樹勢はよいと想われます。アマリリスは球根なので、うまく管理すれば今後も毎年咲き続けると期待してます。

　同様に、人間も厳しい条件下、恵まれない環境下でも懸命に努力し、強い意志を持って、目的に向かって困難を一つ一つ克服し、チャンス到来の暁には思い切り羽ばたきたいものです。

　現職中、教育現場にいたことから、お教えした生徒さんの中には驚くほど社会で活躍してる人もいます。すべては把握できませんが、分かっているだけでも最初に担任した中には香港日本商工会議所の会頭になった人もいます。私と同じ高校音楽教員は３名、高校教員数名、義務教育教員数名、高校長２名、海外日本人学校教員３名、高崎市議会議員２名、群馬県議会議員１名で、いずれも現職です。

　おそらく、最後に勤務した前橋高校からは医師など各方面で活躍してる人が多く、また、私が若い頃に接した人はすでに還暦を過ぎてます。高齢化社会での生き方については、私自身が実践中であり、体験中であり、模索の日々です。

　それでも、退職後の大きな三つの基盤は「健康、経済、社会性」であり、精神の充実のため、夢中になれる趣味は三つは必要と考えてます。

Dear my friends abroad

　The simultaneous interpretation for your understanding will be after my breakfast in Japan time.

....................................

　This morning, it has bloomed in front of the entrance. This flower is an amaryllis. The flowers are blooming as a result of spending time in the warm hallway indoors during the winter. Another bud is also standing by nearby, so I think the plant is doing well. Amaryllis is a bulb, so if managing it well, I expect it to continue blooming in this season every year.

　Similarly, humans should work hard even under difficulty or disadvantaged circumstances. They have a strong will, overcome difficulties one by one toward their purposes, and when their opportunity arises, they should take an active part in the various fields.

　During on my active service, I worked in high school education in Gumma Prefecture, and some of the students I taught were surprisingly are active in society. I don't know everything about their occupations, but within the radius of my knowledge, Mr. S, who was in my class, became the president of the Hong Kong Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry. There are 3 high school music teachers like me, several high school teachers, several compulsory education teachers, 2 high school principals, 3 teachers from overseas Japanese schools, 2 Takasaki City Council members, and 1 Gumma Prefectural Assembly Member, all of whom are incumbent.

　There are probably many people from Maebashi High School, where I last worked, who are active in various fields, including doctors. And many of the people when I was young teacher have already passed their 60s. As for how to live in the aging society, I am putting it into practice myself , experiencing it, and exploring it every day.

　Still, the three major foundations of after retirement are "health, finance and sociality," at the same time, I believe that it is indispensable to have three hobbies that we can be passionate about in order to be mentally fulfilling.
