In Japan the life is very very very monotonous such that we have a stereotypical life style day after day everyday all though the year. It is getting bored to live in Japan.
There is absolutely no everyday problems on the basic necessities such as Water, Electricity, Milk, Fruits, Meat, Fish and Vegetables, Tele-communications, Roads, Transport etc.
With out these problems we don't know how to spend our spare time and we are absolutely are forced to have a hobby of going out on week ends to enjoy the nature, photography, hiking/trekking, visiting friends.
Milk, Fruits, Meat and Vegetables are almost available 24x7 in almost all super markets. Neatly cleaned and wrapped and fresh. No need to pick the vegetables and check for their quality. Cauliflowers are absolutely free from insects/worms. So as egg-plants. No Okra (ladies finger) will be over matured. All vegetables are guaranteed free from toxic contamination. Fruits are guaranteed as well from the toxic contamination. One can even cook the spinach by just taking out from the wrapper and cut the root part. Its absolutely washed and does not have any traces mud.
Meat, Fish are also absolutely refrigerated and absolutely free from flies on them. No smell in the shop. Same shop will have meat, fish and fruits and vegetable sections. Even absolute vegetarian who does not like the smell of fish/meat will never be able to get he smell of meat/fish.
By all the above one will miss the fun (if it were in India) of going to shop at designated time to get the fresh vegetables, else one will be left with low quality of fruits and vegetables. Competing with other fellows in choosing the good quality vegetable by checking each one of them such as breaking the okra (ladies finger) tip to check they are tender enough. Check egg-plant throughly such that you don't find any black spots which denotes there is a worm inside. Check the peas (pealed) that is not colored green.
After undergoing all these challenges, we come home and give them a through shower to store in the refrigerators. Especially the greens (such as spinach) we have to be extra careful to clean them to make sure there is no traces of mud in it.
Its fun to handle all these problems especially in everyday life.

Disclaimer: If you think handling problem in everyday life is painful, I would say its always the fact that the other side of the bank is always green...
Good to read. I feel little contradictory between the 4th and 6th paragraph. Those who have 50% spiritualism and 50% Romance in their mind will never get bored in their life. Coz, in spiritualism and Romance, one will find taste and enjoyment in everything in all walks of Life and never harmful thoughts arise. You will never grow older. God Bless You. Thanks
ReplyDelete@chinnapiyan - this is a sarcastic comparison of life in Japan and life in India. Even after 65 years of independence we still are yet to get good quality of basic necessities such as Water, Electricity, Food etc.
DeleteWe are never going to get these unless we realize and understand how and what other countries are getting by paying tax...
Awesome.. A country to learn from.. Getting first hand information from your experience is interesting!
