Most of all Love & life. Girlfriends, movies, food, books, travelling, relationships etc. And lots of good music of 'course. But there is so much music in the world, that I can't mention just a couple of things, it would look silly and give you the wrong impression. So I don't mention anything.
Tanabe Mamoru is a Tokyo based singer and songwriter. His songs are bitter-sweet portraits of life and love. His experience of modern Japanese life is wryly humorous but his themes are serious and universal.
When I think of my life I often forget the small things that make me happy. Going for a walk, seeing a kind face, eating something really good, spending a day doing nothing with someone I love. But listening to Tanabe Mamoru's music I am reminded of all the small happinesses and sadnesses that make my life. And, somehow, because they are such ordinary things they become important again.

It can be so tempting to just go through the motions sometimes... especially when you're living a dream... or (in the oh too common scenario) dreaming about chasing your dreams while chasing the means to acquire them... or the next best thing... or maybe just anything…
Yes, I know that we are tried and tired, notwithstanding all the hope that's been goin' around. Yes, I know that we are searching for an intangible something meaningful to do... the next stage in human evolution maybe… revolution... but without the circles.... hoping to enjoy that sacred cycle in the pursuit of happiness.
...how about finishing what we've started?
Each one: get up, and make it happen; be your own Obama.
