Reflections for the new year

Until the day I left our home in Japan, I was busy going through daily life. Although I questioned about what was going on in the world, I did not act towards contributing to overall society or making our world a better place. I think part of me was saying that, "there is not much I can do." However, now I realize that this is the exact attitude that caused the Fukushima daiichi nuclear power plant accident. No matter how small our parts are, the only way we can ever make a difference is raising our voices up together. If we live our lives too timidly, we leave our collective futures to be dictated by the wicked and incompetent, those that care nothing for us or our children.

As the mainstream media and government continues to withhold what is going on in Japan with 
Fukushima daiichi nuclear power plant, there are still many people that are suffering from this accident. I feel strongly that it is my duty to express and share the voice of people in Japan through this blog, and I pledge to do so with all my might.

I wish a better year to all the humanity than this last year has been. May this new year be the year we all rose up to make a difference!
