「動け！俺の🧠脳よ。」

I proclaim at loud 📢 and say, "Move your ass, man! You're only 50 and just 50."

なんだか最近は調子が良くない！「いつもと同じことじゃないの？」と、私を知る人はそう嘆くかもしれないが、最近は特にアップダウンが激しいかもしれない。脳出血の事やコロナウイルスの影響は当然多々あるが、それでもある意味『スイッチ』が入らん！！

話はかわるが、一応中1の生徒の前期期末対策は今日(実際は昨日)で終了。いゃ〜〜、これでは納得ができん！くっそー！！勉強をさせるのが仕事では無い。
⭕あくまでも人生をアシストし、その結果、勉学や運動に対しプラスに働き、常日頃から慈悲の心をもって、接するべき行動。

"Am I doing this?" I really can't say but, "Am I trying hard enough?" I have to do much, much, and much better! I need to grasp lot harder and deeper. I must obtain and be original character and be independent, not myself, nor like the rest of the teachers.

結局、努力なしには邁進はない筈だ。

「嫌な天気だな…」

こういう天気は本当に嫌だ。健常者の時はあまり考えなかったが、いざ一旦自分が「身体障害者」になってみると、ものすごく大変なことなんだと、認識させられる。

最近はあまり聞かなくなったが、いっときそこら中どこでも聞かれたこの「バリアフリー」と、言う言葉は今はどこに行ってしまったのだろうか？！

「バリアフリー」とは一体何のことを指しているのだろうか？15,6年前に私は両親にわがままをいい、『完璧な、それこそ段差も全く無いオールフラット』に家を変更してもらった。今思えば若干(いや、相当)やりすぎだったかも知れないが、当時考えて実行して貰った『オールバリアフリー』は今どこの家庭でもそのようなレイアウトやフロアリングは出来ないと思う。当時は本当に段差が全く無かった!!!要するに、簡単に説明すると私は家では、一度もつんのめったり、転ぶことはなかった。

After certain years, I began to realize one important factor in my life. "Just take everything easy." If it is raining outside, let it rain. It will certainly stop.

「マジだらしない、俺…」

『根性が無さすぎ！！どうしようもねぇ〜よ、俺は…』

"STOP FEELING SORRY FOR YOURSELF AND MOVE YOUR ASS (AND MOVE ON)!"

いつも私は「右半身不随」または「右半身麻痺」と言う私の状態をあまり悪びれもせず、あたかもこの状態がいつもの私だと言わんだかりに家族も含めて他人とも接していた。

"Is there something wrong with my body other than being treated as a 'cerebral hemorrhage' for the past 16 years?"

しかし、私の身体、含めた「🧠脳🧠」は、右半身不随(右半身麻痺)でもう15,6年たってしまっている。当然諦めたわけではないが、急激な向上はあまり望めないものも、分かってはいる(悔しいが…)。

ただラッキーな点は、なんとか現状維持は保たれているとは思う。しかも、この数年は何も特別なことはしていないのにだ(コロナウィルスのせいでもある)。

I'm planning to start working out (meaning rehabilitation) with a few of my staffs from previous members. I guess we haven't seen each other for the past two years (due to the virus), thus, I'm looking forward to our get together.

「身体障害者にはツラい世の中だよ…」

本当に住みにくくなりつつある世の中だと思う今日この頃。朝日新聞デジタルによると、「厚生労働省は9日、体や心などに障害がある人の数が約936万6千人との推計を公表した。前回2013年の推計（約787万9千人）より、約149万人増えた。日本の全人口に占める割合も、約6.2％から約7.4％に増えた。」

WOW!!! I mean, WOW😲 It's almost 10% of the total population and yet, it's still growing. The point which I want to state is this: WHO IS TAKING CARE OF US!!! "US," MEANING THE DISABLED."

私はまだ走る事は出来ないが、ゆっくりなら杖等の支えが無くても歩ける。しかし、10年後はどうだろう？20年後は？もう、不安でしかない。

For some reason, I had difficulty sleeping today. I should have taken the sleeping pill, but hey, s*** happens and I forgot. It's extremely weird as I feel just fine.

いや、わからん！単に寝てないが故にハイパーになっているかもしれん。先ほど薬を飲んだので効いてくれれば良いのだが…

"FRUSTRATING DAYS"

For three days in a row, I couldn't do s***. I heard that it's not going to be easy after my injection, but I never thought it would be this painful, both physically and mentally.

特に痛みと言うよりは、痛みからくるタルさかも知れない。たまに「ダルさ」ではなく、どちらかと言うと以前頻繁ではないがたまに来ていた「脳痙攣」に近いかもしれない。説明するのはめちゃくちゃうざく、鬱陶しいので省略させてもらう。簡単に言うと「痙攣」と、似た症状だと思ってくれればいいと思う。

Is there anything fun and enjoyable things to do after and during this Corona incident???

「2日目」

やはり、今朝は痛みと共に目覚めた。しかし、本当に若干の痛みだけだ。ただ、ずっとダルく嫌な嫌悪感は残っている。プラス、寝ているだけで、後はトイレに起き、また寝ては数時間後、トイレだけのために起きる、と言うその繰り返しだ。

It's almost 10:00 in the evening and still, a part of my body is aching, especially, my right arm. After careful discussion with my doctor, we've decided to inject the virus into my right arm (is right side of my body is partially numb).

Luckily, I had a day off today. What about tomorrow then??? All my students are equally valuable to me. However, this one particular kid is so fragile when it comes to learning something new, like studying English.

I have got to come up with a new strategy, otherwise, we go down together.
