Hi Everyone,
I added Takeda foundation brushes today.
Please take a look
——-
I often go to cafes like Starbucks, Doutor, and Komeda.
I used to visit small, cozy cafes, but since I can’t stay long at those, I now prefer larger ones.
At each cafe, I find different kinds of people who catch my interest.
As you may know, there’s a regular customer I often see—a lady who’s about 90 years old.
I occasionally spot her in the neighborhood.
The other day, I saw her coming out of a gyudon restaurant.
Gyudon is a Japanese dish consisting of a bowl of rice topped with thinly sliced beef and onions simmered in a savory sauce.
And yesterday, I found myself walking behind her. I slowed my pace to match hers and noticed she was heading into a hair salon.
She seems to have her places: a coffee shop, a gyudon restaurant, and a hairdresser.
According to some studies, while we can live alone, our happiness increases when we interact with others.
I can relate to this.
For instance, when I spend all day packing orders without talking to anyone until nighttime, I notice my mood feels off.
It might also be because I don’t get enough sunlight on those days.
That’s why I make an effort to visit a coffee shop. Phone calls can help, but seeing real people in person makes a big difference.
Of course, not everyone is pleasant—some can be rude—but I’ve realized that even small stresses are better than having no stimulation at all in daily life.
This elderly lady may live in a relatively closed world, but she makes an effort to connect with others by going out.
There’s something inspiring about her approach, and I feel I can learn a lot from her.
Thank you for reading,
Toshiya
