What an amazing world we live in.

I am watching the G7 news while chewing on the chocolate I received. I’m watching the world’s movers and shakers, scrolling through their every move on Twitter!

Perhaps I knew too much; I had no way of knowing what was happening in the background of the 1964 Tokyo Olympics under the media conditions of the time. If I didn’t know anything about it, I might have been able to cheer for the Olympics with an open mind.

In the 21st century, we know too much, and we are not happy with what we know, and in fact, what we think we know is being told in order to keep us from knowing something else. I now have to worry ゙ about it.

The president of South Korea says, “Would you like to sit on the bench for a minute? The Japanese prime minister doesn’t take a Korean interpreter with him so that he won’t be asked to join him, or the American president is angry about human rights abuses in Russia and China, but tries to destroy countries in the Middle East, or he tries to solve racial problems in his own country so that he won’t be asked to join the Korean government. The same is true of the United States.

Perhaps we need to rethink what we believe we can believe.

For this reason, I woke up this morning and checked to see if the sky was as blue as it was yesterday.
