Yesterday I went opening game of the Pacific League Climax Series second stage at Sapporo Dome with my friend who is into Nipponham Fiters . I was borig so went go home. Suddenly it coming・・・Sledge belted a dramatic grand slam in the bottom of nineth inings. Fiters is getting for the Victory.
Today, I went to see the movie " My sister's keeper"by myself It was exactly what was hoping for.It's highly recomended. It mede me rethink my life, especially family tie and love. I am alrealy middle age without husband nor boyfriend.
Q: I have a question abouto your phisical and mental strength . You are turning 50 this year. What the secret behind being at the top of your game both phigically and mentally?
A: I think a big part of it is the recognation that I'm not the owner of may tallent, I'm just the manager of it and that I know that I have been blessed with many gifts. And Ithink as soon as you think that you own what you have, it will go away. So I think that's part of it. The other part of it is that , I have a great sence of curiosity about the waorld. And I am always trying to learn new things and put myself in the position where I am working with people who know more than I do.
Q:...Do you think women as strong as they should be today? Or do you think we have a long way to go ?
A: I don't think that soregth is gendar specific . I know a lot of strong men and I know a lot of weak men. I know a lot of strong women and I know a lot of weak momen. I think most people underestimate thier own strength , and don't tap into the reserves of strength that they actually embody. I think that it is a gift to have strength and be able to tap into it. To be able to know that it's there and to also not use it. To not abuse it , so to speak. To use it in the right place. Sometimes also, what we define as sorength is not strength . Sometaimes to be storength is to do nothing, and vice versa. Sometimes , to do too much , or to use your storength is a weakness. So there is a contradiction there. But I do admire people who have emotiomal and mental strength and use it wisely.

I didn't know using "clinch"in this suituation until read Yomiuri On Line today. Yesterday I went to Sapporo Dome to see win the Pacific League Championship .Team was going to clinch yesterday with a win or tie. So Seibu Lions beated Nipponn Ham Fighters whose magic number to win PL title remaind at one,let alone second place Rakuten beat Orix,that I spend time in vain.
