斉藤湯
日本で唯一の「三助さん」が居るという日暮里の斉藤湯に行ってきた
んなもん合格してから行けとも思ったが、既に結構なお歳なので引退前にと
銭湯代450円 + ながし400円 + 手ぶらセット100円で950円也
設備は普通の銭湯
テレビにも出て有名になったから混んでるかと思いきや、人少なめ
三助さんとお客さんの話し声が響いてる
「ながし」は垢すりで背中を洗って、肩と腕と背中を揉んでもらえる
垢すりは3分程度だったが、その後30分ぐらい揉んでもらった
自分の前にながしのお客さんは居たが、自分の後が居らず
世間に名は知れたが、お客さんが増えたわけではないそーだ
なるほど、マッサージは我流
神の手を持っていたら、お客さんの数はもっと違ったろう
ちなみに、まだまだ引退はされないそーだ
夢落ち
某姫が夢に出てきた

どこかのラボで
やっと見つかるが

なんだそれ？

The Third Story of Steve Jobs Stanford Speech
My third story is about death.
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certaily be right."
It made an impression on me.
And since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself "if today were the last day of my life, what I want to do what I am about to do today?"
And whenever the answer has been "NO" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
Rememberinf that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life
because almost everything, all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrasssment or failure, these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.
Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.
You are already naked.
There is no reason not to follow your heart.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer.
I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas.
I didn't even know what a pancreas was.
The doctord told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is in curable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months.
My doctor advised me to go home and get may affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die.
It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months.
It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family.
It measn to say your goodbyes.
I lived with that diagnosis all day.
Later that evening I had a biospy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas, and got a few cells from the tumor.
I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope, the doctors started crying
because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery.
I had the surgery, and thankfully I am fine now.
This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades.
Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a usefulm but purely intellectual concept;
"No one wants to die."
Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there.
And yet, death is the destination we all share.
No one has ever escaped it.
And that is as it should be because death is very likeky the single best invention of life.
It's life's change agent.
It clears out the old to make way for the new.
Right now, the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.
Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
Your time is limited so don't waste it living someone else's life.
Don't be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.
And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
Everything else is secondary.
