Lately I have become more of a twitter person than a facebook person. Of course, I think each has its own interesting qualities, but I think "There is more human nature and naked emotion on twitter than on facebook.I think it's like "I'm not sure what I want to do," so just looking at the submissions is interesting and stimulates ideas from a different angle.(Though there are many hoaxes aimed at spreading the word.)
More recently, during the Valentine's Day season, we've been working on the "I love cars, but I don't have a girlfriend.or "How can I marry a wife who loves cars?Many of the tweets were from men who love cars, such as "I can't believe young kids these days are thinking like this...and I was able to enjoy viewing the contents in a completely relatable auntie state.
As I watched those tweets, I also saw a "What kind of woman should a man marry in order to love his car and live his life with it, even after marriage?I have been thinking about this, and I would like to write a little about it today.
As it happens, I wasn't a car enthusiast at all, and I was more of a "You don't need a car in your life.It was the "I was a" group. "It costs a considerable amount of money per year, I can live without it, and if I live in a city, the transportation network is well developed and exhaust gas is bad for the environment. Therefore, I do not need a car.I thought, "I'm not going to be able to do that.
That doesn't mean that she didn't say to her husband before she married him, "I'm not going toI need you to stop the car hobby.or "If you're going to get married, you're going to have to compromise on the car.I never thought of it that way.
How could I, a non-car enthusiast, say to my husband, who loves cars and touring, "I can do whatever I want"?
It is.
I myself have been a "Cherish what you love.Since he has chosen to live in a "I want to take care of what I love.Because I understand my husband's way of life.
I think it is.
As I may have mentioned briefly in this blog, I started my own business when I was 27 years old. I didn't know what was right or left, I had no money, no connections, no know-how, nothing... Looking back, I was completely reckless (laughs).
Naturally, at that time, theHe was fiercely opposed by his family and by the company he worked for.
I'll never make it. You will fail for sure. What will you do with your life after that if you end up with huge debts?
I'm at my current company, I'm valued, I'm getting a good salary for my age, and there's no way I'm throwing all of that away.
And so on....
In particular, my parents, all of whom have relatives who work in the business, were "This girl has finally lost her mind.He was really worried about me saying "I'm not a good person," and he opposed 100%. However, in my mind, "If you don't do it now, you will regret it for the rest of your life.I had a strong feeling that I wanted to be a part of this project, so I stepped up to the plate.(Eventually he became independent in a way that his family would support him)
Ten years ago, entrepreneurship wasn't as booming as it is today.It is rare for women, especially in the Kansai region, to become independent in their 20s.At the various social gatherings I attended at the time, I was told to my face that "women are women anyway" type of frustration. At that time.
The moment you choose a way of life that is different from the norm or the rails laid down by the world, the public's perception of you becomes all the stronger.
I felt that this was the case. However, when I was told many things, on the contrary, I thought, "Tic'sho!I think that was quite a plus for me because I have a personality that excites me with "I'm a good person," he said.
After becoming independent, I met many business owners, who, contrary to when I was working for a company, wereThey fully supported me in taking on the challenge.Among them, these words from a senior colleague, who has been my mentor for 10 years, still remain with me.
"For example, if you want to climb Mount Everest.I went to someone who had already climbed Everest for advice.You have to go. Those who have never climbed Mount Everest will definitely disagree, saying it's impossible.(including kindness and good will). But people who have climbed Everest once will give you advice and support for climbing. That's how it is."
And.
."I see!After that, I began to seek advice and consultation from such people, and I found myself surrounded by almost exclusively business owners and freelancers.
And many of those people are.The image of a person who is not bound by the norms of the world, but is living life abundantly with his or her own will.See the "I, too, want to live like this.The desire to "make a difference" became stronger and stronger.
However, the "With great freedom comes great responsibilitySo. For the past 10 years, I worked very hard, but in the end, I couldn't even reach one millionth of what I had set out to do. I also lost all of my money (laughs).
Then you ask, "So do you regret it?" I am asked, I have no regrets at all. In Dracula's theory of life, he says
If you get hit by a stronger enemy, you just start over from the church. The money will be gone, but the experience will remain.
I am so glad that I took the step at that time, because it was an experience that will be an asset to my life, with the feeling that I was a good person.
Nevertheless, I am truly grateful to my husband for creating an environment in which I could push forward with everything I wanted to do, in every sense of the word, after we were married and after our child was born.
In addition, over the past decade, I've also been working on a "Writing.and "To express something to many people.I realized that I might like "I love it" and might be relatively good at it, the company changed a lot of its ways, and I started taking the Porsche blog seriously, and here I am.
I know I'm getting pretty upfront about it, but in other words, I'm not sure I'm the one who's "in charge" of theLet's live a life that values our own will over the world's conventional wisdom.Since I believe that the "My husband loves cars.."He's pretty crazy about cars.I think it's totally fine to be "crazy. Rather, I think, "The crazier I get, the more I can go through, the more interesting my life will be." I think it's good.
If you take a different path than the others, you will be told many things, more or less. The winds will be stronger.
Still, if you only live once, you don't live up to other people's expectations.I choose to live my life.I want my husband to value his "likes" and "things he wants to do" and do them as much as he wants to do them, because I am sure he thinks that way too.
In reality, though, theThe part about my husband being a man who understands "freedom and responsibility" is pretty significant.Husband. My husband is a
I'll work hard to make money, so the car won't hurt our finances."
I don't like housework, and I don't want to do it, but instead, I will actively introduce shortening appliances and services to make housework easier."
and so on, but I honestly feel that this area is important.(I can't be a wife who has the decency to support a husband who does as he pleases without regard for those around him.)
So, back to the beginning... "I'm not sure what to say."What kind of woman should a man marry in order to love his car and live his life with it, even after marriage?When I say "I love cars," of course I think it would be good to marry a woman who loves cars, but there are probably very few such people... (laughs)
To look at it a little differently.
People who understand the importance of "living your own life" and who care more about what you want to be than what is common knowledge around you.
If I could meet and marry such a person, I would be able to lead a life that values cars even after marriage... Well, it may not be that simple, but I am thinking about it from the perspective of a relative's auntie these days.
