In our daily busyness, we often forget the importance of culture.
Top executives and politicians also value their trust in cultured people.
Culture not only enhances problem-solving abilities, but also has a wonderful power to heal the mind.
Gossip and entertainment stories may be fun at times,
but they cannot be said to be truly useful information.
Please enjoy reading these pieces of information
as the minimum knowledge required for business culture.
Today marks “温風至” (Atsukaze Itaru) in the 72 micro-seasons.
As the name suggests, it’s the time when the “warm wind” starts to blow.
This period signals the end of the rainy season in many parts of Japan, allowing the summer blue sky to spread.
Following the rainy season, hot and humid days are common.
Are you fully prepared to prevent heatstroke?
Please also be mindful of accidents during marine leisure activities.
During this season of warm winds, “Tanabata” is celebrated in various locations.
It’s a romantic legend where Orihime and Hikoboshi meet once a year at the Milky Way.
In Japan, there is a tradition of writing wishes on strips of paper and decorating bamboo with them.
The sight of people praying for the sad love story of Orihime and Hikoboshi, and for their own wishes to reach the heavens, often touches the hearts of visitors.
As adults without children, we often stop writing our wishes on tanzaku strips.
However, it can be quite enriching to occasionally partake in this elegant cultural practice.
