NHK's program, "The Four Great Plans: We cannot The World in Three Parts," was recorded on our HDD recorder (probably due to a missed program operation). The program is left on our HDD recorder.
It was my first time seeing the program, but "Super Duper Shocking Footage! The World's Hardest Work" was very interesting.
I have already decided to make it a regular program.
It was a reminder once again of how much of our social infrastructure is supported by the efforts of so many people.

I participated in the Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake (January 17, 1995) as a volunteer for only three days, and I have summarized my experiences in this column.
Later, a junior college student who worked for a gas company told me about real disaster site activities: 'For 40 days, we slept in prefabs on site, and the rest of the time, we were covered in mud, digging in the dirt all the time and working on piping.
When I heard the above, and I remembered,
"I was incredibly ashamed of myself for writing such a pompous column."
-----
Of course, this sense of shame is essential, but it is still much better than withdrawing from volunteering because your helplessness so deflates you.
Even a tiny contribution is far better than zero. "Good" is "good," even if it is "hypocritical good."
-----
And now, I'm thinking about reopening it, and I?have a feeling that this is the case,
"Let's all talk more and more and keep track!"
Even a small report of a volunteer's activities, such as mine, may (or may not) be helpful.
I think, "Let's preserve as much as we can of the situation and the feelings we had at the time."
People's memories are unreliable.
Photographs and videos can convey the situation, but it is difficult to describe the "heart."
-----
I think it's fair to say that "it's embarrassing to talk about yourself."
But still, continuing to tell the story may be helpful to someone.
I also understand that "you cannot express your feelings well.
The verbalization task is challenging for everyone (it is annoying and misunderstood).
Even if? 'For 40 days, we slept in prefabs on site, and the rest of the time, we were covered in mud, digging in the dirt all the time and working on piping' was just private notes,
The record of those 40 days and its publication may be helpful and even touch someone's heart.
-----
Once again, I realize now that 'studying Japanese is essential, and writing essays is especially important.
In addition, we also need to cultivate the "frumpiness" of publishing my diary to the world.
Don't worry.
Someone will delete your (and my) notes within a year after you or I die for non-payment of fees to the provider.
