Actually, I have never heard of “Blind tennis” until I read this article. So I was surprised and very impressed by this story of Miyoshi Takei. I imagined that he had got over many difficulties from start to finish. Even though it was not easy thing to establish tennis as a new sport, he did it. I watched a video on the link. This may not be appropriate to say. I did not understand how blind people could play tennis? But it was beyond my imaginings. The rallies were so exiting!! Through this news, I knew that there are no limits for us to do something. I hope sports for people with disabilities such as “Blind tennis” to expand its activities all over the world!!

I am the one of Hi-Standard fan. I used to play their songs all day when I was young. Since they had disbanded, I has been longing for them to come back to stage. And so I am very happy that they came back and played their songs at Air Jam. Akihiro Namba said that rock music can inspire and move peoples’ mind. At times, I surely realize the power of music. Ironically, when the earthquake disaster at Tohoku happened I could reaffirm it. Many charity concerts have taken place, not only in Japan but foreign counties. I hope that the rock scene comes back and appeal to people like it had been before!!
