Showa, Heisei, 2022
The time has passed, and looking back, I can see the Showa era in the distance
Many eras have passed, and like the flow of a river
I want to leave myself in peace
Forever, listening to the murmuring of the stream.

Recently, my mother in Tokyo passed away at the age of 101. In the process of cleaning up after my mother, most of the stories that I recall fondly are from the Showa period.
International phone calls with high rates and staring at the three-minute meter.
The simple clothes for field trips that my mother made all night long after the war ended. Cooking with pea charcoal, charcoal briquettes, and charcoal in a 7-wheeler. And my mother was happy to have gas in the house. What made her happier was when we went from squeaking a well to running water. I remember boiling the bath in the wooden oval with coal. Now a single switch on the steeple panel will boil a bath at a specified temperature and quantity. In the shopping street, the owners of each store, such as the green grocer, fishmonger, butcher, confectioner, dry goods shop, etc., were all family owned.
So there was a little greeting, a little talking to each other, and I could feel a connection with them. Television was not yet widespread, and they used to show us wrestling shows in the school yard.
Soon after, there was a washing machine in there, and they bought a TV, and an electric refrigerator （ until then, it was cooled with ice ）,
My mother was getting more comfortable and maybe even a little fashionable.

Anyway, life got better.
There are many items in my mother's belongings that remind me of those days and I get very nostalgic.

I know that the world is changing at a much faster pace ） than it is today （ but I have the feeling that even people are becoming a part of the metal machine.

When I think of my mother, I realize how lucky I am to have lived in the Showa era, where there is a human touch.

Good children and people with morals should protect the comfortable posting space.

What do you think about Showa ？ Weird question
Also, if the Empress and Empress leave this world, will their names be changed ？
I don't understand because I was born in America, but it's the same thing I never wanted to be born again in the past or now.

Apparently in Buddhism there is reincarnation
but if you are reincarnated, the memory of your previous life doesn't seem to remain.
Sometimes they have memories of their previous life as infants, but
they disappear as they grow up.

Rather than Their Majesties the Empresses ceasing to exist on earth,
the Emperor's accession to the throne until his death will be in the current year, and
when the new Emperor comes to the throne, a new year will begin.

It is normal that some people are not interested, so there is no need to be concerned.

I wish they would stop changing the year every time the emperor changes.
I have trouble with the western calendar.

It is rare in the world. Only Japan has this kind of thing.

Showa era is the era of war and peace ？
Hirohito was the supreme leader of the war, but he lived his life without taking any responsibility.
This is also a rare phenomenon in the world.
