Defeat with growth

The matches for young kick boxers was organized by Lithuanian Muay Thai Union. The gym in an elementaly school was full of massive men and sound of aches and pains. The losers learned from defeat and it is the must to gain.
I hear that about 7000 people joined in demonstrations againt increase of tax on the weekend. Some turned into a mob, destroyed shops and got arrested. What a silly fight!
リトアニア・ムエタイ・ユニオン主催の、若手選手向け競技会。小学校の体育館には、いかつい男たちと肉のぶつかり合う音。敗者は敗北から学ぶ、それは成長に必要なこと。
同じ週末に、増税に反対する約7000人の市民がデモを行った。一部が暴徒化し、店などを破壊し逮捕された。くだらない闘争だ。

Matutinal joy

Yesterday morning, around 8 - It was -11C outside and I was taking photos at balcony. I have got my bones caught by the chill through night clothes. The other rooms connected to one next doors are like medical research facilities and a woman in a white coat has already started her works.
This morning, about 5:30 - I fixed toilet tank equipments AGAIN! Disassembled premetive water pressure system gave me much splash. And I was thinking of its complicated compositions.
昨日の朝、8時頃‐外気温はマイナス11℃、バルコニーで写真を撮っていた。寝巻きを通して寒さが骨に染みた。棟続きの他の部屋は医療研究施設のようで、白衣の女性が既に仕事を始めていた。
今朝、5時30分頃‐またもやトイレの水洗器具の修理!分解された原始的な水圧装置は、水しぶきをたっぷりとお見舞いしてくれた。そんなことをやっていながらも、そこに見える複雑な構図のことを考えていた。
