It's been four years since I started the Porsche blog. Porsche has made me realize the importance of family.

My Family's Car Life

The Porsche blog was a turning point.

Blog "Porsche came to our house.It's been four years since I opened the "Mere Old Man" and I've noticed that it's been four years. It's only been four years...I feel as if I have been doing this for much longer. Thanks to all of you who read us on a regular basis, to those who visit us for the first time, and to our readers, we have been able to come this far.

Thank you very much.

And these days, "I wish I had realized how important Porsche was to me as I started the Porsche Blog and shared my time with Porsche!I began to think, "I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.

The important thing to remember is that "Importance of Family".

."Of course not. Family is important.I'm sure everyone would think, "I'm a good person," he said. But before, my family was important to me, but my work was just as important, if not more so. Partly because I started my own business.A company is like a child with an aching stomach.So when I gave birth to my first daughter about 8 years ago, I was on the computer all the time in the hospital room right after giving birth, and I returned to work after a month and worked like a gun.

However, from there, due to a combination of my own health problems, the pregnancy and birth of my second daughter, and the fact that my oldest daughter could not enter the daycare center of her choice and had to go to a kindergarten with a 2 pm drop-off time, I decided to take some time off from work starting in the winter of 2016. Although I am still operating as a company, it is a really small operation, and I am the only employee.

From that point on, every day was centered around raising children. He said, "However, I would like to have more tension in my life.I was thinking, "I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do," when my husband

I've been saying every day that the Panamera (the 970 Panamera Edition we had at home at the time) is so great, why don't you blog about it and write about it?

I was told to start a blog with a light heart.

The blog has grown, and gradually, I have been going to see Porsche races at the track, going for long distance drives, driving at Fuji Speedway, attending Porsche driving schools, etc... all of them with my family, as well as doing interviews. I began to go to these events with my family.

It was tough to move around with small children, but I am so glad we took the plunge and went then, because we made many more memories as a family.

And even though I am not a confident driver, nor am I particularly fond of driving, with a Porsche, I can trust the car completely and go on long drives or to driving school. "Porsche is amazing.I began to think wholeheartedly, "I'm not going to be able to do this.

She also began talking with her husband about cars and Porsches on a daily basis, and their conversations increased.

We are not Porsche salesman and we don't get a penny for selling Porsche through our blog. We're not Porsche salesmen, and we don't get a penny for every Porsche sold through our blog, so why do we have to advertise Porsches every day?

and so on, and now we talk about our family's car life every week in our Twitter space.

We were not the type of couple who talked about ourselves much, but since we started blogging, our conversations have increased.Through car-related chats, we often talked about the future and our goals.

Wishing for the safety of the family

Still, in my mind, "I'd like to put more effort into my blog, but my kids are too young to do as much as I'd like.I had always been conflicted about whether I wanted to work for a company or not, but my feelings changed with the birth of my first son last year.

The baby is so cute and lovable after all these years, and the two older sisters take care of my son as if she were his little mother. Their growth is reassuring, and the sight of them smiles at me and makes me think more and more, "Family is so nice.

Of course.Shut up! Clean it up! The room is a mess! Close the door! Put the trash in the trash!I'm yelling at him every day (especially now that I'm on summer vacation), but I'm still frustrated.

Then in April of this year. I went to Kumano Nachi-taisha shrine to pay my respects. I wrote my wish on the gomagi, which naturally saidpeace and prosperity in the householdI was surprised to find myself writing, "I'm sorry. Until last year, I had been "commercial prosperityI couldn't think of anything else.

I'll work as hard as I can when the kids are older, and I'll blog at my own pace. Right now, the best thing for me is the health of my children and family, and to be able to spend time together with a smile on my face.

I honestly thought so.

And at that time, "Family is the most important thing to me right now.It became clear to me that "the

What Porsche made me realize.

About two months later. For the first time in several years, I had a chance to talk with a senior manager who had helped me when I started my business, and he asked me to work on a certain project. The project was very exciting and I was very happy about it.Right now I'm family first, family first.I told him, "I'm sorry.Still OK, child care is a priority, and we'll complete everything online.and I am now in the midst of that challenge.

It is like the start of a second chapter in my life, and I am able to spend every day with my children, keeping me busy and occupied.

And the other day, he tweeted this on Twitter without any hesitation.

When I was young, I was selfless and thought "work is the most important thing," and after I had a baby, I was itching to be "halfway between family and work. But now I can say this without hesitation. Family is the most important thing for me now. I will challenge myself to create an environment where I can earn money and put my family first. I am almost 40 years old, and I have finally found my way.

I can't believe I'm writing this.Work is more important than anything else.This would not have been possible for me a few years ago, when I was

The reason I feel this way is, without a doubt, because of the launch of the Porsche blog. Exploring Porsche has brought my husband and I closer together, and it has brought us closer together as a family, and I am not exaggerating, but Porsche has brought us closer together as a family.

Conversely, I wonder what I would be doing now if I hadn't started the blog...and that scares me a little. (I wonder what I would have done if I hadn't started the blog.)

From now on, I will put my family first and do what I want to do to the best of my ability. I will take a break when I get tired, take care of myself, take on challenges at my own pace, and I hope to celebrate my 40th birthday full of excitement next year.

    Hello!
    My wife and I probably talk about cars the most lol.
    The rest is investment talk. LOL.
    On the other hand, they don't talk much about their children (^^; That may be a problem (^^;
    It seems that many car-loving couples have happy marriages? (^^)

      Hello, thank you!

      >We probably talk about cars the most, too. LOL.
      Oh yes! My family is the same way (laughs).
      It would be nice to have a common topic of conversation between husband and wife ^^^.

    Hello Mina and Hiro.

    As I read through this article, I wondered if perhaps you were going to take some time off as you shifted your focus to child rearing.
    I am relieved that my fears were unfounded! Of course, we have two small children and a baby, so our life will be centered on raising them.

    It has been four years already.
    I've been reading this blog for probably a little over 3 years now.
    Hiro inspired me to change my car.

    I know it must be tough every day, but I hope you'll continue to blog as long as you can!
    I had a junior person in my office who failed at blogging after about 2 years.
    It was a very popular blog that maintained a ranking of 1 to 3 in its genre, but I had a lot of problems in finding topics, composition, blog layout, and so on.
    It really looked like a lot of work, even with the super-powerful partner, Hiro, right beside me!

    I'm always looking for a car I want and fantasizing about it."

    That's just my daily life.

      Thank you for everything.
      And thank you for visiting our blog!
      You've been watching us for three years now...!

      And I'm still having a hard time raising my kids.
      Blogging, working, everything is important, but if you try too hard at everything, you'll go bankrupt (I've been in a series of that in the past lol).
      I can do it all without too much pressure, find my own pace, and do it.
      I wonder if this is my way of life from now on.

      The key to both blogging and work is to keep going, isn't it?
      When you work hard, you work hard; when you rest, you rest.
      I'll keep looking for ways to do this with a sense of urgency!

      Please keep them coming!

      >"I look for cars that I think I want and fantasize about them.
      >That's just my daily life.

      LOL!!!
