One of the frustrations I feel when I see the word

One of the frustrations I feel when I see the word “Sashiko” in a non-Japanese-related context is that they often focus on the “result”. The result is important, but the result is merely the result. Sashiko is more than that, I believe. The core is somewhere else, and the core is what the society is in need. ☆
“Am I doing it right?”// ”Do I Sashiko stitch correctly?”. I understand that question, but before questioning, I want them to feel and wonder why they hand-stitched. ☆
Stop judging yourself. Learn to be okay with what you do & who you are. Instead of judging yourself, start caring for others. Then, one will care for the origin of Sashiko instead of trying to be “right” or “popular” in this Sashiko trend. I do not think the Japanese people practiced Sashiko with worrying about being “correct”. They stitched for the family who suffer from the poverty & severe winter. It is a practice of care - do not repaint it by an opinion.

少し大袈裟な話になるかもですが、「人間とは何か」を問われる10年になるのかもしれないなぁと思ったり。人間は利己的な生き物です。でも同時に、他の為に命を使うことができる生き物でもあります。インターネットを中心にしたイノベーションは、人間をどちらに導くのか。より利己的になるのか、はたまた「共有」できるような存在になるのか。利己的人間性が極まると戦争です。共有できるようになると「地球国家」です。僕は「ええやん、みんなで一緒に楽しいことも苦しいこともしようや」と思っている一人です。一人生き残ってもなぁ……と。孤独が、居場所がないことが、どれだけ苦しいかを知っているからこそ、「一緒」が良いなぁと思うのです。感情を論理（言葉）で説明したがる、少々普通からは逸脱した一人の戯言かもしれないけれど。全然刺し子関係ない……と思いつつ、刺し子で繋がれることが、きっと大切なことだと思うのです。

I understand we are scared. I am worried as well.

I understand we are scared. I am worried as well. We should prepare for it. However, the best thing we can do now is to keep the “ordinary”. There are people who committed their life into the field we are now worried about. I would rather trust them than search for the “quick” answer online and get worried more than necessary. So, I will keep the ordinary. It is the time to “share”, instead of being “competitive”. Aim to be “the one” of everyone, instead of “Number One” or “Only One”. ☆
The power of people who commit their life into one field is greater than one can think of. I know it by practicing Sashiko. Therefore, I trust those who are working so hard Right Now to unravel and resolve the CoronaVirus outbreak. I will practice Sashiko. I will update the website. I will sell the Sashiko items. The ordinary can be the remedy. Do Sashiko. Stay yourself out of the panic from quick information. Sashiko can make you a bit more kind to others. ☆

こういう時だからこそ、「日常」を。
☆
人間って”想像する”の生き物だなぁと本当に思う。震災の時は、映像で「大変さ」が実感できたから、日本中が一つになって「復興を！」と掲げられたと思う。今回のコロナは「目に見えない」から、未来の苦しむ自分を想像して、買いだめとかに走ってしまう。少し考えればわかること。非日常は続かない。買いだめして家を閉鎖して生き延びる世界になったとして、その買いだめた分の日にちを他を犠牲にして生き延びるとして、その間に何が変わるのか。今必死で頑張ってくださっている医療＆疫学研究の方は、買いだめしてないと思うんだ。苦しい未来だけじゃなくて、続かない非日常の後に何を想像するか。日常に戻るしかないじゃない。だからこそ、日常なんです。当たり前のことを当たり前に。なので、刺し子します。「刺し子してる場合じゃない」と言われても、「今こそ刺し子してる時だ」と言い続けてみようと思います。刺し子すると、買いだめが馬鹿らしくなるよ。刺し子している時は、少しだけ、他人に優しくなれるから。
