Well. Sorry for non-Sashiko topic again. It keeps bugging me. I believe this relates to Sashiko in a deeper level. I watched several Greta’s speech. I agree with what she advocates. We need to be serious with the environmental issue. One thing, however, there is one thing I felt “strange”.
☆
In my opinion, no dispute based on broad categorization should happen. It is the beginning of a sad ending. Here, the environmental issue shouldn’t be a fight between “youth” vs “adults”. It is a fight of BOTH youth and adults to change the system. It should be “humanity” vs “system (power of money)”, not a child vs an adult based on the civilization we appreciate. Denying the parents and ancestors could result in denying oneself. I have done so much of denying my family (in Sashiko), and I wasn’t happy back then. ☆
Same goes to Sashiko. Please try to respect the Origin. I am NOT saying one should do ONLY the original or traditional Sashiko. Please enjoy what you like. However, willing to learn the traditional will make everyone on the same line – less arguing and more caring, and that’s the reason I share. We are on the same line – not fighting over the line. ☆

グレタさんのスピーチ。気になったので、過去のものもしっかり見てみました。内容は同意。環境問題はとても大切。でも少し怖いのは、人間を雑に「分類」しすぎ(その気持ちはわかるけれど)。環境問題は、”大人対子供”という争いじゃないんです。”大人と子供対(お金基準の)システム”だと思っています。一般化は怖い。少数はの例外を否定することになるから。
☆
これ、刺し子でも一緒なんです。日本国内で刺し子論議が白熱するのをみたことがありませんが、海外では白熱した議論が繰り返されています。「何が刺し子なのか」。これ、”刺し子”対”刺し子じゃない何か”の戦いなんです。もっと言えば、その人の価値観の代理戦争なんです。で、日本で刺し子やっている僕らは「いや、刺し子なんぞ、みんながら思っているの、全部刺し子で良いんじゃね?」というわけです。戦う必要がないから。でも、自分を正当化するために人は戦いたい。解決できるんです、この不毛な戦い。「それは先人を尊敬し、知ること」が第一歩です。先人は間違ってるかもしれない。でも、これだけのものを残したんです。それは尊重されるべきだし、今後がある僕らはそこから学ばなきゃいけない。だから古典、伝統、基本なんだと思っています。環境問題と刺し子を無理くり結びつけてますが、あながちズレまくってるわけでもないなと思っています。地球ごとの意識の転換期なんだろうなぁ。

I strongly remember some words from my grandmother (Keiko’s mom), who was a cook, while I was “helping” her to prepare the meal. She taught me that “Subtraction is important in Cooking”. While adding Miso into a pod, I wondered what she meant because I was “adding” the ingredients. After…

I was born in a Sashiko family in 1983. In 2008, I started facing Sashiko as “work/business”. Ever since, with many ups and downs, I have been thinking how we can “continue (make it sustainable)” the Sashiko. Recently, I developed the phrase –  “I would like to pass down Sashiko”….
